The author pauses the main story to fulfill a promise and satisfy reader curiosity, an act he attributes to Sai's inspiration. As explained in Chapter 2, the phrase "Do not engage in dualistic explanations" reminded him of a promise made in the first chapter to tell this story. He acknowledges that readers would naturally have a doubt upon seeing "Composed by the devotee Hemadpant" at the end of each chapter and want to know who this person is. He presents this sub-story as a way to satisfy that curiosity before continuing with the main sequence of Sai’s life story.
Why does the author interrupt the main narrative to explain how he was named 'Hemadpant'?
