Baba went on: "At 2:30 I will be in the barn, because people will be there. Elizabeth tells me it is published in the paper that I will give audience from 2:30 onwards. Kitty told me, 'Baba, please don't go there because the television program begins from here.' Now I just ask you all whether I should stay here! I want your answer. Mrs. Duce, what should I do now?"

In them Baba explained that on July 26, Mahdah Love had come all the way from Florida to see Baba, who embraced her and told her that He loved her and she had a good heart. She said that Baba had helped her very much since she met Him in 1952. She was also very happy to know that Sant Kirpal Singh, now 62, had come all the way from Delhi to Satara in the extreme heat to take Baba's darshan and she thought it significant. Baba replied He loved Kirpal Singh very much and all the saints were His children.
