In one hand he held a tree branch and in the other a bundle with a Koran in it. Baba brought some plums for the mast. Talli Sain, however, handed them back and told the tonga driver to take Baba back to Amritsar. When Baba sent Eruch to ask the wali what should be done with the plums, Talli Sain replied, "The one who has given them knows best what to do with them."
Baba was not satisfied with the contact and so returned from Amritsar the next morning to see Talli Sain. It had rained heavily throughout the night, and they found him sitting in a pool of water and mud. Baba gently pulled him out and cleaned him. When the mast's hut was dried, Baba sat there alone with him for half an hour. Baba then left, happy with the contact, indicating that his work had now been satisfactorily completed.
In Meerut, on 1 August, Baba contacted the chargeman of the city, Meherban Baba , a fifth-plane mast living in the cremation grounds. The mast, who kept ten or twelve dogs with him, was a jalali type and appeared ill-tempered; but to those who dared to approach him he would utter, " Meherban " — meaning gracious friend.
In Bulandarshahr, the same day, Baba worked with an advanced soul who was employed in an office. He would not usually meet people in his office but, as a result of Eruch's persuasion, he agreed, and Baba contacted him there. On the 2nd, Baba left for Saharanpur, where he had previously contacted masts, and communed again with the sixth-plane saint Rehmatullah. At midnight Baba returned to Ambala.
The next day they went to Pinjaur, where Baba contacted a very high mast called Bhagwan Nath . He was nearly naked, carrying bundles of rags, and had a mild but restless disposition. Baba found him quite suitable for his work.
Baba then went to Kalka, where he contacted the mast called Mahboob Baba , who for many years had sat on the verandah of a liquor shop. Baba also contacted Sadhu Nath , about whom Baba commented that he was sincere.
On Monday, 4 August 1946, Baba, Baidul and Eruch traveled in a rented car and arrived midday at the Royal Hotel in Simla, where they met Kaka and Adi Sr. Baba seemed tired, and Eruch and Baidul looked haggard.
“”Baba remarked to Adi, "This trip has been the most exhausting excursion I have ever undertaken."
During Baba's three-day stay in the mountain town of Simla, he worked with a Mohammedan mast who was sometimes a jalali (fiery) and at other times a jamali (serene) type.
