After various other speeches, Ramjoo read out Baba's message on "Real Darshan" (given in Dehra Dun). At 10:30, Baba spelt on the alphabet board:
We are all one. Every one of you has the Infinite within, and yet, because of ignorance, everyone feels some kind of helplessness. It is a mighty divine joke that everyone, being most powerful and blissful, feels most weak and miserable. The very moment this ignorance goes, you become the infinite Source of all-power and bliss. And, as I am within you all, I can authoritatively say that if you love me with all your heart so as to lose yourself in me, this ignorance will go.
Poor, rich, literate, illiterate, small, big — all can love me by ardently thinking of me, which requires no ceremony and no other efforts. You can also love me by rendering selfless service to humanity. The term "selfless service" has been so commonly used that the purpose is lost in the very mentioning of it. You serve others only when you do it even at the cost of your own happiness, and in your mind even the thought of having served does not exist.
Now I am giving good news to myself that soon I will have to get rid of this alphabet board and break my silence, as I really am fed up with this silence.
Baba started distributing prasad, and heaps and heaps of flowers and fruit accumulated. Baba began handing out some of the garlands, and the devotees, thrilled at being the recipients of such a gift, preserved them in their homes as precious mementos. "Baba's roving eyes cast rays in all directions," Age reported, "and the darshanites bathed in them. The rays pierced their hearts, transforming them into cups of Wine. And as the wine's intoxicating effect took hold, Meher Baba alone was before their eyes. For weeks afterwards they forgot the world and its affairs and basked in his Light!"
Nearly 5,000 people gathered in Guntur. When Baba was about to leave after the darshan, a boy came running toward him. Prostrating himself, he laid his head on Baba's feet.
Baba had forbidden this sort of obeisance, and so in return he put his head on Eruch's feet and revealed, "The boy is on the Path."
Baba and the mandali had their lunch at Sudarshanam's at 11:25 A.M. Baba first sat on the decorated verandah where chairs had been placed for the mandali to eat.
