Remember this: Those whom I love suffer somehow in any event. But this is the moral: No sooner than you have money, pay off your debtors. You got involved in a business in which you suffered a loss, because I asked you to get involved. Now I will turn the key in such a way that everything will be all right and you will have happy times. But always be honest in your dealings. It is better to be honest and suffer than to be dishonest and enjoy life.
Nadir departed feeling reconciled — comforted by Baba's words.
During October of 1934, cables continued to be sent back and forth between America, Europe and India about the film project and Baba's forthcoming trip to the West. At one point, Karl Vollmoeller had fallen ill, thus delaying the written screenplays. The films, however, were progressing in other key departments. Baba received several cables to the effect: "Need your presence now for creating confidence in others and certainty in artistic and financial decisions." Another stated: "Your presence invaluable to quicken results." Baba was therefore making the necessary arrangements to return to the West for the eighth time in three years.
On 23 October, Baba received a cable from Norina stating: "Your coming now would help every angle." Although the films never did get produced, they served as a valid external purpose for Baba to journey to Europe and America to be with his lovers.
Baba's secretary, Chanji, was kept busy with the correspondence. On one occasion, Baba sent this rhyme to Minta, whom he had nicknamed Shalimar :
What lovely face What charm & grace What beautiful ways has Shalimar! What heart full of love What mind full of clove What a beautiful dove is Shalimar! Come, don't lose heart Play well your part, my Shalimar!
Baba visited Akbar Press on Monday, 22 October 1934. While there, he explained how the mind changes all aspects of suffering, giving the example of two of his women followers, each suffering physically:
One woman is old in age, but lacking in wisdom. She is full of whims and weaknesses of mind. She complains she is suffering from so many diseases — almost every disease in the world!
