The swami introduced all the inmates of the ashram to Baba, who advised them to live their lives according to the teachings of Ramakrishna, the Perfect Master of Calcutta, whom Baba had once referred to as the "Herald of the Avataric age."
That same evening at 7:30 P.M., Deshmukh presented a kirtan recital in praise of the Master at the National College Hall in Dhantoli, which Baba attended with the mandali. The hall was packed. An advocate, A. V. Khare, read out Baba's message on God and Love (excerpted here):
The spiritual path is like climbing up to the mountaintop through hills and dales and thorny woods and along steep and dangerous precipices. If there is one thing which is most necessary for a safe and sure arrival at the top, it is love. All other qualities which are essential for the aspirants of the Highest can and must come to them if they faithfully follow the whispers of the unerring guide of love.
If you lose hold of the mantle of this guide, there is only despair in store for you. The gateway to the highest state of being one with God is firmly closed to all who do not have the courage to lose their separate existence in the restless fire of divine love!
Dr. Deshmukh was so completely overwhelmed to hear this in Baba's presence, he declared, "Look! The Avatar has come here! The complete Avatar! The very personification of divinity, whose descent the world has been waiting for!"
The following day was supposed to be a day of rest for Baba, but people came to his residence in Dhantoli nevertheless and would not leave him until they had a few moments of his company. Baba graciously allowed them his darshan and casually chatted with them for a while. At three o'clock that afternoon, the members of the Meher Baba Reception Committee, who had arranged Baba's program, were introduced to him, and a qawaali program was held in his presence with a few select ones.
Baba's message on "two aspects of divinity" was delivered on this occasion by Ghani, an excerpt of which is as follows:
However dark the clouds and whatever may be the poignancy of pain and despair, one spiritual fact, embodying cheer and hope to suffering humanity, must not be lost sight of and which I am going to convey to you here today.
