According to Chapter 53 of the Shri Sai Satcharitra, the original author, Hemadpant (also known as Dabholkar), was unable to write the concluding summary because he passed away suddenly. The chapter explains that while Hemadpant had made a promise to "provide the summary, and thus complete the book," this did not happen. His unexpected death left everyone's heart grieved, and the summary was not found among his writings. As Chapter 53 states, this serves as an example that "Nothing happens by one's own will; Baba’s will is more powerful." The task of completing the work was then passed on, underscoring the theme of divine will over human intention.
Why was the summary of the Shri Sai Satcharitra not written by the original author, Hemadpant?
