In every dargah and shrine, prayers were offered according to the religion of the holy one housed there, and also the Repentance Prayer was recited. After the prayers, Baba would touch the shrines or dargahs with his forehead and, leaving a few rupees there, walk backwards out of the tomb.
On the morning of the 16th, 40 Muslims were gathered in the dargah of the saint Shah Raju Kaital Hussaini. After washing and wiping each one's feet, Baba placed his forehead thereon and paid each ten rupees as prasad. Similarly, in the dak bungalow that afternoon, Dhake and Yeshwant Rao brought 25 Hindus, to whom Baba bowed down and gave prasad of Rs.20 each. In the evening, when Baba was again in the dargah of Zarzari Zar Baksh, he found a Muslim man in a pitiable condition and offered him money as a gift.
The next day, explaining about his bowing down to the poor, Baba stated, "When I do it, I do not do it as observance of some custom or mere formality. Taking them as God, I salute them. It is like God bowing down to God."
Baba also explained the difference between real help and temporary material relief:
When we see beggars on the road suffering from incurable diseases, we feel sorry and wish to do something for them. But this is only a kind of temporary relief. Then how to help? We should help in such a way that those who are suffering will be cured forever. It is of their own karma that people suffer in this world. But none should fear such ills and sufferings, for it is the beginning of real happiness. But this can be realized only by awakening perfect hope in them. This hope becomes the savior, and such type of help can be given only by the Realized Ones.
This does not mean that you should not have pity for the poor and feel for them. Let both help and relief go side by side. If you want to give anything, may it be "selfless service" always. Humanity is in need of such volunteers who would render such selfless service.
For the next two days, Baba stayed in the dak bungalow at Aurangabad with the mandali. Besides contacting a few masts, he also visited the samadhis and dargahs surrounding Aurangabad and Daulatabad.
