"Are you married?" Douglas then asked.
"I am beyond sex," Baba spelled out. "There is no difference for me between a male and a female."
"How many hours do you sleep at night?"
"Three."
"What are your plans after this?"
"I will proceed to America after a short stay at the Devonshire ashram."
"Would you now answer my first question and put an end to my anxiety?"
Smiling, Baba gestured to Chanji to tell Douglas, "You are very lucky."
"It is your kindness."
Douglas rose to leave and again asked, "The answer to my first question: What is the reason for the power permeating this room? Where does it come from?"
"It is due to my presence."
James Douglas took Baba's hand in his and then pressed it to his eyes, and Baba blessed him. "I melted under his enchantment in spite of my caution," he later wrote. His heart was full of Baba's love, and after a respectful bow, he left. His "one-minute" meeting had stretched to a full hour. The next day, James Douglas published the entire interview on the front page of the London Sunday Express . It had a great impact on many readers and numerous people found out about Meher Baba from it.
Later on the 9th, Baba went for a drive around the park, and that night to the Q Theater to see Minta in a play. Adi Jr. arrived from Paris that same night, quite exhausted.
On Sunday, 10 April 1932, Kitty Davy arranged a children's party in the afternoon in her backyard. There were balloons and cake. Baba came and cut the cake, put on a party hat, distributed toys, played with the children and amused them all. The eight or so children also had fun playing tiddlywinks with Baba sitting on the floor among them. After tea in the drawing room, a man came and entertained them by playing a saw and a ukulele. Baba and the mandali played Indian music. One six-year-old boy named John was becoming a nuisance and Baba was asked if he should be removed from the room.
Baba replied, "No, leave him alone. It is only his surplus energy. He is very near to me and I have work for him to do later."
The party ended at six o'clock. In the evening Baba was driven to Hampton Court to see the palace of King Henry VIII.
