My suffering is not only physical but also mental and spiritual. There is a great difference between your mental and spiritual suffering and mine. My mental suffering is very intense and is because of the pseudo saints that abound in the world today. My spiritual suffering is because I know I am free in myself but bound in you. "

 

Baba, as God, sees Himself in everything and all minds are contained in His Universal Mind. Feeling Himself as One with all, and in all, He suffers infinitely for our limitations—ignorance, physical, mental and spiritual suffering.

 

Looking to the packed room, Baba remarked, "I had called this afternoon only about 20 persons, but there are about 150 here!"

 

Baba remarked that in the room were several lovers who had got their doctorate in philosophy. To one of them He asked, "What did you learn in philosophy?" He replied, "I learnt it to unlearn it."

 

When the talk drifted to the Western Sahavas to be held this December at Ahmednagar, Baba said that about 250 lovers from the West would participate in it He remarked that His lovers were inviting Him to the United States for a sahavas. He said, "But, I will not leave India now."

 

At 4:50 Baba left the side room and all dispersed.

 

4th May.

 

Baba came into the side room at 7:20 A.M. Baba said to Harry, "Have you any idea of how much I suffer and yet seem as if I am happy?" Harry replied, "Why don't you blow the whole thing off?" Eruch interrupted, "That would mean the end of the whole game. "

 

A few persons had been called for darshan of which some were from Hyderabad. Baba said, "I used to visit Hyderabad quite frequently but I used to move about incognito for mast work. I used to move in cars, tongas (horse-drawn carriages), and bullock carts. We had to go sometimes on camel back. Often I slept on railway platforms. Once we had rested in a shady spot near a P.W.D. storehouse at Ahmedabad. The executive engineer happened to come on a round that day and objected to our being parked there. He fired the watchkeeper for allowing us in. I then asked Eruch to go and explain to the engineer as to who we were, and it was only then that the watchman was reinstated. I am God in human form. The world will know this when I break My silence."

 

Baba came on the dais at 7:50—earlier than usual. After the cheering had died down, Baba gave a message for lovers from Hamirpur district. He said, "The love of Hamirpur lovers feels that because Hamirpur lovers are poor, they are neglected.
