There was a plate of food before him which he began eating in Baba's presence. He finished half and offered the rest to Baba, who ate it.
A woman devotee then came, bringing more food. Batwa Shah again ate half and handed the rest to Baba. Baba started eating with joy, and when only a few mouthfuls were left, Batwa Shah took the plate away, handed it back to the woman and told her, "Distribute this among your family."
He then asked Baba to scratch his back, which Baba did with utmost care. After about an hour of this, Batwa Shah spoke in solemn English: "Permitted and allowed." These enigmatic words brought an end to the contact. Feeling very happy, Baba stood up. His joy was discernible by the gleam in his eyes and it seemed that the contact was completely successful.
Baba later related to Don: "When I sat near Batwa Shah, I felt as if I were sitting near Chacha."
Some idea of the mast's greatness can be gleaned from this remark as Chacha was God-realized — a seventh-plane majzoob.
From Benares, Baba left for Gaya, where, on 26 April 1949, he worked with more advanced souls. Most noteworthy was Shah Rehmatullah Pir , an elderly man of 70, who had a large group of disciples.
After this work, Baba returned to Mount Abu on the evening of the 28th. The women mandali had stayed in Mount Abu all this while, as well as Don and Gustadji. Walu had been sent for and she too was staying with the women.
After resting for a few days, Baba walked to Dilwara on Monday, 2 May, where he again sat with Bengali Baba. On the 6th, he was driven to Oria and again worked with the great yogi Mattragiri. The next day Baba visited the caves surrounding Nakki Lake below the town of Abu. Among those caves he contacted six sadhus, the one known as Mauni Baba being the best.
Later that same day, again near the lake, Baba worked with Haridas Baba Nirvan, the advanced mast who used to refer to himself as "Ishwar's dog" — which he had declared in Ishwar's very presence!
On Thursday, 12 May 1949, Baba set out on another mast tour, accompanied by Eruch, Baidul, Vishnu and Gustadji. He first visited Abu Road at the base of Mount Abu, where he recontacted the masts Ganpat and Khuda Bakhsh.
