Stopping the car some distance from the mast, Baba alighted and started walking toward him. Seeing him coming, the mast stood up and went to Baba, motioning as if he were going to whisper something to him. But nearing Baba, he pulled himself away and speedily walked off and sat down next to a room in the graveyard. For some reason, the mast's mood was spoiled.
Baba followed him. Seeing him coming, the mast got up and started rapidly walking toward a nearby well. When Baba again approached him with Eruch and Baidul, the mast gave them water to drink, but he did not offer it to Baba. Then he again walked rapidly away further into the cemetery. The mast's mood was completely spoiled and he looked troubled.
This time Baba followed him alone, but the mast again avoided him and returned to the open space on the road where he had been sitting before. Finally, Baba was able to place his head on the mast's feet, and by this simple ceremony no one knows how many persons' fates were left to him to be settled — a burden the mast had evidently hoped to avoid shouldering by evading Baba! Greatly pleased, Baba returned from the mast, and expressed his satisfaction with the contact. Baba's features were happily lit when he reached the car, because Peshwari was an advanced mast, and his work with him had been successful.
Afterward, Baba visited the cremation ground called Shamshan Ghat, where a mast named Raghbir stayed. Raghbir had a beautiful face, and when Baidul first went to him he had found a Sikh sitting beside the mast. When Baba approached the mast to contact him, the Sikh was again there, but he left of his own accord. Baba satisfactorily contacted the mast and gave him a ten-rupee note.
Baba then went to the fish market where an unidentified mast had made his abode in a hut made of cardboard. Baba communed with him and expressed his happiness with the contact.
On his way back to Dehra Dun, Baba twice contacted the old mast Maulana. He was again asked if he could come to Dehra Dun, but the mast was not willing.
Baba remarked, "He is a very intelligent child."
Also on the way back, another mast was found alongside the road who wore a shoe on one foot and a sandal on the other. Baba communed with him and was happy with the contact.
