After the dhuni had been lit, Baba immediately returned up Meherabad Hill. He had come down from the hill completely covered with a white sheet and had taken his seat near the dhuni in the same way. Except for the mandali, no one else saw him, and he was conducted in like manner back up the hill.
Baba ordered that from that day on, on the 12th of every month, the dhuni should be lit; and his order is accordingly obeyed to this day and will be into the future.
Baba had been in a pleasant mood and indicated that the dhuni was being lit on this occasion, not for rains, as in the past, but for some definite purpose, perhaps a quickening push to world events he would be giving through the dhuni. Baba of his own accord had suggested that the dhuni be lit.
Baba was also in a good mood the following day, Saturday, 13 December 1941 and reflected on the present world condition and parts played by different leaders:
“”Hitler [plays the greatest part] of all. His name will remain immortal for centuries. He plays a double role of hero and villain simultaneously, and so marvelously, [in spite of such] a burden of worries that would make anyone else crazy, and [as well as] being surrounded by enemies [and spies] that endanger his life every moment. He would have been assassinated already, but for God's nazar on him, to enable him to play the role assigned, which he plays so creditably.
Due to this divine grace on him, a sincere belief and strong conviction are created in him so that whatever he does he thinks is for the betterment and good of humanity, and is therefore right [no matter how wrong it is]. Even the trickeries and diplomatic moves against other countries of Europe and now against Russia are thus justified, he thinks. Otherwise, how could God's game continue as planned?
Someone interrupted asking, "Is he an agent of the spiritual hierarchy?"
“”He is not an agent, but an actor — perfect in playing the role ordained. What organizing powers he has! Look at his achievements. Fighting all alone against the whole world, against such formidable enemies as Britain, Russia and now America. Truly great!
But he is a fool and a madcap. His colleagues — Goebbels, Goering — are hopeless [vicious].1 They have dragged him down.
