Nariman and Meherjee had also come and spent the night at Pimpalgaon.
Naoroji Dadachanji saw Baba on 1 December, and the next day Dr. Daulat Singh arrived in Ahmednagar and was taken to Pimpalgaon on the 3rd. On previous occasions, Daulat Singh had expressed his willingness to give everything to Baba, and Baba was to fulfill his longing — but not in the way he expected! A few months before, Daulat Singh and his family had been forced to flee from Srinagar. Due to the partition of India, there had been several outbreaks of fighting between Hindus and Muslims, and many in Srinagar had been killed. The family had abandoned all their property and possessions, and resettled for the time being in Indore, impoverished.
But Daulat Singh's love for Baba was unequaled — he was a true "resigner"! He had not come to see Baba for any monetary help, but only for the sake of love, and Baba met him lovingly and told him not to worry. He instructed him to go back to Srinagar and Lahore and try to recover what he could. Then he was to turn over everything to his son at Indore and join Baba for good.
Sarosh also arrived on 3 December in a new Buick car for Baba. It had been purchased by Nariman, and was delivered to Pimpalgaon the following day.
On Thursday, 4 December 1947 at six o'clock in the morning, Baba called Adi Sr., Ramjoo, Dattu, Sarosh and 22 of the Meherabad mandali to Pimpalgaon, to give final instructions before going into seclusion. He also reiterated the ban on any serious political discussions in the ashram at Meherabad.
The next morning, Gulmai and the other resident women mandali were taken up the hill. Adi Sr. also brought Pandoba and Madhav Rao A. Misal to meet Baba, after a considerable period of time. Before entering seclusion, Baba took the women to a film at Sarosh Cinema, returning at 4:15 P.M.
At sunset that evening, Ali Shah was brought from Meherabad and carried up the hill in a chair and installed in the lower cabin. Fifteen minutes later, Baba walked up the hill. In reverence, the sun bowed to its Creator and hid its face behind the veil of the horizon.
Baba settled in his cabin, and in turns, Eruch, Baidul, Kaka, Gustadji, Padri and Sidhu kept watch outside it. Baba started his special work early the next morning.
