brightly dressed before 9 o'clock and climbing the lull to Avatar's "Abode", the name Baba called the house he lived in at Kiel Mountain. We left our shoes at the door, and went into the meeting room of the house, and sat quietly on the forms. Baba asked all did we sleep well, and those who did not sleep to stand and give the reason why they did not. Baba asked for the "Prayer of Repentance" to be read again, and Francis went down to the farmhouse to obtain the book. Then Dr. Donkin read it in his clear resonant voice and we all stood. Baba again said we were all forgiven our failures up to that moment and also that He included all those who loved Him but were not able to be present.

Baba told us to repeat these words, "Beloved God, Thy Will has come to pass," seven times after 12 p.m. on 9th July, that is, the first moment of the 10th July.

Next to Mehera, was Mani, his sister; Mani did not think of herself; she did all for Baba regardless of her personal pleasures. Baba handed around photos of Mehera, and Mani, and other groups of Indian women devotees. There were many photographs, and after we had seen them, Baba held four large photographs which Mehera had said
