And if replies by letters are not given, it should not mean the voice of loving suffering hearts hasn't reached me. The inner voice is the surest means of communication and never fails to reach me. But the response, whether prompt or slow, depends on the sweet will of the Master, and should never give any grounds for disappointment to a soul if its voice is not promptly responded to. In that silence too there is a meaning and reason, as the Master alone knows. He sees far, far ahead and works not for immediately satisfying results, but for the ultimate aim and good of the dear one who has come to him seeking aid and guidance. You may therefore explain and convey to all the dear ones about whom you have written in your several letters to me, in these few words that:
"Baba knows all and listens to the voice of each loving heart that seeks his aid and guidance and conveys his loving help to each in his own way looking always to the ultimate good. None should worry, for Baba is always with you."
And as I have already told you in my general letter, while I am in seclusion, I am working in silence for the ultimate good of all my dear ones and for the upliftment of humanity, and have been planning things for the future work, in which many of my Western dear ones have to participate. And to that end, I may, in the near future, come to the West, to offer at the same time an opportunity to the loved ones to meet me. It is not yet definitely settled, but you will be informed when definite plans are made. I know how anxious you all are, having not met beloved Baba for over a year, but perhaps we shall now meet, soon, my dears.
Baba reiterated this theme on 28 March 1936 to Nonny and Rano:
I have your letters and although I didn't reply by letter, you did have the reply through inner communion which always continues, wherever I am, whatever I may be doing. No call of Love ever remains unresponded, much less from those who love me and think of me constantly as you do...
Remember dearest, Baba watches every little act of Love, listens to every little note (voice) of Love, and responds to every little cry given for Love, no matter where these come from ... The Fountain Source of Love is ever pouring forth directing its course into different channels wherever needed. And for those of my dearest who love me as you do, its course is ever open to pour out any moment, anywhere.
