The locals were always amazed by their talks together of all manner of incomprehensible nonsense.
On 12 April in Kandahar, Baba found Fatruh Mian , a good mast who, while standing in water, would read aloud the Koran for hours on end. At first this mast would not come out of his enchanted state, but due to the vehement persuasion of his brother, who exhorted that he must see "the One who had come from so far," Fatruh stopped reading the Koran and met in private with Baba.
While in Kandahar, Baba and the men came to know that there was another good mast, named Nivrutti Maharaj, seven miles away in a village (near Lawha). There was no conveyance to that village, so they hired a bullock cart and departed. The dirt road was full of potholes, and the ride was terribly uncomfortable, as they were constantly being jolted back and forth in the cart over the rough country tract. When they reached the desolate place, they were covered with dust. Already exhausted, they learned to their disappointment that the mast had just disappeared, and so they had to go back the way they had come, in the dark, via the same dreadfully rough road.
When they returned, they heard that the President of the United States, Franklin D. Roosevelt, had died that day.
Baba had suffered these inconveniences only to contact the mast, but it could not be said that no inner contact was made. Baba had different ways of contacting advanced souls and the possibility of his "invisible" contact cannot be ruled out. Perhaps it was necessary for Baba to travel all the way to make the contact possible on the higher planes. (Later, in August 1945, Nivrutti Maharaj was contacted physically.)
After going to Nanded and Bhongir on the 14th, Baba returned to Hyderabad. That day, Adi Sr. was sent back to Ahmednagar for certain work. Ali Shah was brought to Hyderabad from Ahmednagar on 21 April. He stayed for ten days, during which time Baba worked with him in semi-seclusion. As Baba was working with Ali Shah, the Allied troops were pushing through German territory. It was at this time that several Nazi concentration camps were liberated and the world first learned the full extent of the horrors of genocide in the camps, where over six million Jews were exterminated.
Dr. Deshmukh arrived in Hyderabad on 22 April 1945 and stayed for a week.
