Why was the Shri Sai Satcharitra left unfinished by its original author, Hemadpant?

The original author, Hemadpant, was unable to complete the Shri Sai Satcharitra because he passed away suddenly. Chapter 53 explains that while he had promised to write a summary to conclude the book, this did not happen. The text frames this event not as a simple oversight but as an instance where a higher power's influence prevails, stating, "Nothing happens by one's own will; Baba’s will is more powerful." Hemadpant's unexpected death left his loved ones grieved and uncertain about how to find or create the summary he had intended to write, as his notes were extensive and complex.
