One other contact was with a ghous-type mast (those who dismember their limbs) called Chaous .
At the end of the day, Baba was very happy with the three contacts and remarked, "Although, compared with yesterday, the number of contacts today is fewer, the result is far better. Today is, in a way, a better day because the contacts are so much more far-reaching."
Again, in the evening, Baba was out in search of masts and contacted four more. The total number of masts contacted in Hyderabad and Secunderabad was 31. This included several old masts whom Baba had contacted six years before, in 1945.
Leaving Hyderabad the next morning, Friday, 19 January 1951, Baba arrived in Gulbarga, but failed to find the mast he had especially come to see. So Baba paid his obeisance to the dargah (tomb) of the Muslim saint known as Khwaja Saheb, and while returning, contacted another mast.
From Gulbarga, Baba proceeded to the village of Itkal, twelve miles away. Due to the bad condition of the country road, the car could not enter the village, so Baba and the men walked a mile and a half to contact Swami Mast. Baba indicated that the man was a very important mast, and Baba was delighted that the mast was so receptive to him and accepted his gift of sweets and clothing, which Baba had specifically brought with him for the mast. Baba was in an exceptionally happy mood due to his "great satisfaction" with this contact. The mast offered Baba some of the sweets and Baba ate a little and distributed some to the mandali also.
They returned to Gulbarga at about eight at night, and drove on to the village of Aland. Baba contacted a majzoob there, and they then drove on to Naldurg, arriving at 2:00 A.M. Baba felt sleepy and they stopped at a Customs House, where he slept for two and a half hours.
They left Naldurg at 4:30 A.M., reaching Poona in the afternoon. On the way from Sholapur to Poona, Baba contacted another mast, bringing the total number of mast-contacts made during the journey to 38. Pappa delivered a tiffin of food to them at the Poona railway station, and Baba went to see Sadashiv Patil at his home. They returned to Mahabaleshwar on the afternoon of the 20th, after driving 33 straight hours. The total distance covered during the five days of whirlwind traveling was estimated at 1,400 miles. Adi Sr. returned to Ahmednagar the next day.
