After two days, the man informed Narayan that he had finished it.Narayan had him read aloud Baba's discourse "The Avatar."As the man was reading it to him, Narayan would exclaim in his childlike manner, "Oh, wonderful! Wonderful!"

On 19 November 1938, Adi Sr. drove Baba, Norina, Elizabeth, Nonny and a few of the mandali to the opening of Dr. Gangadhar Shastri Gune's Ayurvedic Hospital on Station Road in Ahmednagar, which Baba performed.Gulmai returned to Khushru Quarters that day.Dr. Gune met Baba again at Meherabad on the 30th and asked for his help in expanding his ayurvedic work.Baba told him to write up a proposal, and he would review it upon his return from his tour.
From the 1920s, in the early days of founding Meherabad, the Arangaon villagers when they had some dispute among themselves would come to Baba seeking his judgment in settling matters.Once Baba called all the parties in dispute to Meherabad to hear them out and invited the Western women to witness the "court proceedings."The two feuding parties came and began arguing so vociferously that, at one point, Baba got up to leave, as if fed up with the whole affair.They then agreed to abide by Baba's decision and were brought together on amiable terms.
In gratitude, a few days later, on 26 November 1938, the Arangaon villagers led a procession up the hill to Baba's Tomb, where he was waiting for them, and sang bhajans and performed dances for his enjoyment.
Also on the same day, Walter Mertens arrived in Meherabad with Chanji.He was taken up Meherabad Hill and allowed to see his wife Hedi.He was accommodated in Baba's Rahuri Cabin.
The following day, during a meeting with Baba, Walter expressed his feelings openly, "I don't want to become an Eastern holy man or a monk. I am a European and believe in a spirituality which can express itself anywhere and in any activity."
“”
Baba answered, dictating, "I stand over the East and the West; I am no yogi and no saint, but a God-Man, as was Christ. You, Hedi and I are one. You two will have great tasks ahead. You have been always with me."
Baba sent Walter and Hedi to Panchgani for five days, accompanied by Pleader as their guide.They left on the 30th and returned on 5 December.Each person spent one night alone in Baba's cave in Tiger Valley, according to his instructions.
