Dhake interjected, "Get out and go to hell!"
"I am waiting for you there," Baba quipped, and everyone laughed.
Baba left Meherazad at six o'clock on the morning of Monday, 1 November for his second mast tour in Gujarat in 1948. Baba was accompanied by Vishnu, Eruch and Jal Kerawalla (who had arrived the day before). Adi Sr. drove them to Bombay, stopping on the way at Bindra House, where Baba gave darshan to Gadekar's and Vithal Bhokre's families, among others. At Baba's direction, Baidul, Chhagan and Gustadji went by train to Bombay. Jal took a train to Nagpur, and Baba and the mandali boarded the Kathiawar Mail train at 6:30 P.M.
On the 3rd, Baba contacted two masts, Munga Sai and Jina Sai in Junagadh. In the middle of the night Baba entered a dargah (Muslim shrine) in Junagadh where he found a room to sit in seclusion. There was a verandah outside the room with a single bench on it. During travels the men would take turns being on watch near Baba. While Baba was resting in the room, Gustadji was seated on the bench keeping watch.
When Baba began snoring loudly, Gustadji thought it would be a good chance to urinate, so he began looking around for a suitable spot. He had already undone his trousers and was just about to urinate when he heard Baba's clap. Hurriedly, he fixed his pants because Baba continued clapping loudly.
When Gustadji went to him, displeased, Baba gestured, "I have been clapping and clapping! Why didn't you come at once?"
Gustadji kept still and Baba motioned to him, "Go back and sit on the bench and do not make the slightest movement."
Controlling his urge to urinate, Gustadji went and sat on the bench. After a little while, Baba clapped again and motioned to him that he could relieve himself now. Dawn was breaking outside, and when Gustadji went to that side of the building where he had previously gone, he saw to his astonishment there was a large lake there. Had Baba not clapped at the moment when he did, Gustadji would surely have fallen into it and probably drowned, since he was silent and would not have been able to call for help. Although Baba was snoring loudly, his sleep was "conscious," and thus he saved Gustadji from this accident.
On Thursday morning, 4 November 1948, Baba climbed the thousands of rock-carved steps leading up Datar Hill. The hill is so named as it is associated with Bapu Jamal Shah , also called Datar , who was a God-realized being of past centuries. Datar, as the legend is told, had taken jivan-samadhi — he had himself buried alive in a cave on this mountain.
