The next morning, Baba and the men left for Homnabad, where Baba contacted a sadhu in a dak bungalow.
At six o'clock in the morning of the 28th, they went to Chitguppa, twelve miles away, where Baba communed with a very high mast in the Goliwada locality. After contacting two more masts, he returned to Homnabad at 10:30.
At noon, Baba sat in seclusion in the shrine of a Hindu saint known as Manohar Prabhu, who had taken jivan-samadhi (had himself buried alive). Manohar's uncle had also been a renowned local saint, Manik Prabhu.
At 6:15 A.M. on Monday, 29 October 1951, the group left Homnabad for Gulbarga, where Baba contacted a mast. At eleven o'clock he proceeded to Itkal by bus to contact a mast. From there, covering half the distance by bus and half by foot, Baba returned to Gulbarga. Baba sent Daulat Singh back to his home from there.
The next day, Baba sat in seclusion for half an hour in a Muslim dargah in Gulbarga, and thereafter contacted a saint and a mast.
Baba wished to give money as "love-gifts" to 101 needy families in Warangal, and he sent Eruch in advance to contact the headman of the village. The headman owned a shop, and opposite his was another shop. Unbeknownst to Eruch, there was a bitter rivalry between the two shopkeepers. As Eruch approached the headman's shop, the other shopkeeper called him over and asked what he wanted.
Eruch explained his purpose and the second shopkeeper told him, "There is no necessity of meeting him. I will arrange everything." He then drew up a list of 101 families who had once been farm owners but, as their land had been confiscated by the government, were now on meager government pensions of Rs.20 to 25 per month. The shopkeeper handed the list to his servant, who accompanied Eruch to distribute passes among the listed families.
Meanwhile, the headman came to know of the matter and, out of spite, informed the police. Two constables came to where Eruch was distributing tickets. One constable, noticing that Eruch was poorly dressed and unshaven, arrogantly demanded, "Come over here. What are you doing?"
"Be civil," Eruch replied. "I am not a thief. You are a public servant. Why behave in such an insolent manner?"
The policeman said, "Come with us to the police station; our inspector wants to speak with you."
