That is why I have been continually saying, "Good times are coming for all," particularly for those with me and other great God-realized Masters.
To me, all this intense political activity and widespread agitation for independence throughout India, turning the country upside down, is like a game of gilli-danda. I am rather more interested in the thrill and excitement of the game we were just playing because, at that time, my spiritual work is at its zenith, and great internal workings are effected. During such uproar and disorder, the British leave their country to come to India, and Indians leave their country to go to England. It is all the effect of my work. Every country has my agents and, according to my wish, they work internally toward the Goal.
These games I play of flying kites, marbles, et cetera, are my ways of working; every action of mine is my working and signifies messages being sent from here to there and everywhere. Whether I am taking a stroll or merry-making, I am working and nobody knows what I really do.
Nusserwan had been threatened with arrest by the authorities. Addressing him directly, Baba continued:
Remember, whether you are in jail or anywhere else, think of me; keep on remembering me. After you are released from prison, give up all this political activity and come to live with me. Remember what I have told you in the past: Although things appear easy and smooth to you in your activities, you will face difficulties and tense situations as you are beginning to experience now.
Nusserwan confessed that this was so. After taking Baba's darshan, he left with a better understanding.
The festivities continued the following day with more games, including a spirited game of atya-patya with Dhake and Chhagan as team captains. Baba personally served lunch and dinner to all that day. He held a private meeting with Adi Sr. and also with Gulmai, Mehera, Mani, and Khorshed, and informed them about his seclusion.
"Do your duties and obey all the orders I have already given you," he instructed. "Don't worry, and think of me always."
They then returned to Nasik.
Ramjoo, Sailor, and Padri came from Nasik the next day, 31 May, and received Baba's instructions. Sarosh arrived that evening with his wife Viloo and his sister-in-law Soona. Many were eager to meet Baba before he entered seclusion.
A great crowd of more than a hundred persons appeared for Baba's darshan on Sunday, 1 June 1930, and there was a large feast at which Baba himself served the food.
