Thereupon, Baba bitterly remarked to the others present, "How unlucky Vishnu is! When I give him my chappals to wear, he just touches his forehead to them and puts them back. This type of worship and reverence pains me. By disobeying me, Vishnu does not worship me; he punishes me. And the sad part is that he thinks he is revering me.
"Not to keep my word and to worship one's own sentiments is sheer disobedience. Vishnu does not revere me. He reveres his own emotions, and to him, they are apparently superior to my orders. Such things deeply pain me."
Disturbed, Chhagan asked, "Are we not to consider your sandals as sacred?"
"Every belonging of mine is sacred," Baba replied, "and to have a feeling of reverence for them is good. But they are not more important than I am. My word is the most supreme! For that reason, revere my word rather than my things. While carrying out my wishes, let there be no room for the expression of your own emotions and feelings."
Baba's mood changed and he then asked those present, "Have you ever examined my feces?"
Some replied yes and some no. But none could give a description that satisfied Baba.
So he himself explained: "You have no idea what my feces contain. In the beginning of creation, I defecated — and all the suns, moons, stars and universes came out. They are all my excrement! But just imagine! When this dirty thing is so beautiful, how can you ever imagine my real splendor? You will lose your senses if you ever see even a glimpse of it."
During this period, Vishnu's friend Nilu was studying in Bombay to be a doctor, but he would come to Meherabad during his holidays.
He arrived for a two-day visit on the 1st, and at that time, Baba remarked to the mandali, "You are unable to look after my health properly. I need a doctor here, as I intend to open a large dispensary. The doctor will look after me and also treat outside patients."
Turning to Nilu, Baba pointed to the men present and commented, "This whole lot is useless! When they are indisposed, I have to prescribe medicines for them. It is true that I am the Doctor of doctors and I possess medicine for every disease, but that medicine is quite different. I want a doctor who can give relief to my patients. That sort of doctor must be here."
