I am not feeling well now, but I must be in good health to carry out the work on the 7th, 8th and 9th [of November]. Some days before the Hyderabad meeting, I felt very weak and nervous. But Nilu told me that I would be quite well by the time of the meeting, and it was a surprise to me that I remained so lively and active during those days. That period reminded me of my life in Manzil-e-Meem. It is all God's grace and nothing else. Let us see what happens now.
Thus ended the day's program.
At about 9:00 A.M., Thursday, 6 November 1952, Baba again asked everyone to wash their faces and hands. Nilu was taking a bath and arrived late. When all had re-gathered in the hall, the names of God from different religions were repeated seven times each by Nilu, Padri, Baidul and Eruch.
When everyone had sat down Baba joked, "I forgive Nilu for his late arrival, and in return he should bear with me for not giving him any sweets!"
Baba asked Goma Ganesh to read the poems he had composed. Baba appeared pleased with the work Goma had done for the welfare of the children in his school, Babawadi (whose opening Baba had attended four years before).
Baba remarked to him, "I am busy, and if we want to finish by 11:00 A.M., let us talk about the practical side of your work. Until now you did your best for the Babawadi children, and you want to spend the rest of your life for the same purpose. So tell me what is your future program?"
Goma Ganesh replied that he was starting educational work in the villages.
Baba stated, "I feel most happy to hear this. I give my blessings. Do your work without any worry or fear. Do not hesitate to pursue it. I will be with you in your honest endeavor to serve children. Start on November 15, 1952."
Baba further stated: "Childhood is the state of real Godhood. But children are unconsciously conscious of this. In bal-unmant-pishash [a majzoob], bal-avasta [childhood] dominates; and the bal-unmant-pishash is consciously conscious of it [his Godhood]. The whole universe serves as a toy for his game."
Slamson then read a letter to Baba from Vishandas Maharaj, the mast-saint who had been brought to Meherazad from Indore during Baba's Manonash phase of work in January 1952. Vishandas Maharaj had written:
