Reading the label, Vishnu burst out laughing. But when Baba heard of the joke, he ordered Vishnu to take one of the "tablets" every hour. Even during the night, Vishnu had to get up every hour to take his "pea-culiar " medicine.
One of Krishna's responsibilities was bringing the milk to Dehra Dun from a nearby village. One day he slipped alongside the road and fell into the river, and was swept away by the swift current.
At the exact moment he was struggling for his life, Baba, who was in Dehra Dun, grabbed Nilu's hand, gesturing, "Be careful. You might fall down!"
Nilu could not understand why Baba had caught hold of his hand, and said so. Krishna was rescued by some passersby. When he returned to Dehra Dun and narrated this incident, the men understood the significance of Baba's remark.
In the intense tropical summer heat, Baba left Dehra Dun for Ajmer on Saturday, 2 May 1941, accompanied by Kaka, Baidul and Gustadji. In Ajmer, Baba again contacted the majzoob Chacha, the special masts Lakhan Shah and Qabristanwala (Socrates) and other masts. A bungalow in Ajmer (where Baba had decided to move), was rented at this time. Baba and the men returned to Dehra Dun on the 9th.
On Monday, 12 May, at 4:30 A.M., Baba was driven to Rishikesh, 30 miles away in the foothills of the Himalayas, the famous "abode of saints and sages." He went with all the women in a hired bus. Nilu, Kaka and Vishnu accompanied them.
While returning to Dehra Dun late that night, Baba remarked: "You have seen spiritual India with a Spiritual Master! Of all the places of pilgrimage in India, I like Rishikesh the best, because, from all parts of India, visitors and even residents are here only for meditating on God and renouncing the world. It is one of the best places in the world for its spiritual atmosphere."
After staying for a month, Baba left Dehra Dun with most of the group in the early morning of Thursday, 15 May 1941, at 5:00 A.M. Chatti Baba, Baidul, Gustadji, Krishna, Venkoba Rao and Vishnu went by train. Pappa Jessawala was sent back to Meherabad. Tukaram had come, and he now drove the Blue Bus; Elizabeth drove the car, as usual, but this time, Kaka and Nilu traveled with Baba in the car.
