Why can't I find any information about a specific saint I'm looking for in the Satcharitra? Was Hemadpant not aware of all the saints of his time?

When approaching the Sri Sai Satcharitra, it's helpful to understand its intended purpose as described within its own pages. Chapter 50 clarifies that we should leave aside the idea of Hemadpant as the ultimate author, for he is described as just a 'nominal cause' for the book's existence. The text posits that it is Sai himself who 'makes the words speak.' The primary aim of the Satcharitra is not to be an exhaustive historical record of all saints, but to foster steady devotion to Sai, which is presented as the supreme attainment. As Chapter 50 states, the goal is the awakening of devotion to the Saint, through which the heart becomes pure, rather than compiling a complete encyclopedia.
