Gulmai was always with him.
Sitting down at one place on the ground, Baba, in a pensive mood, stated, "I am everything and in everything. I am everywhere and know each and every little thing of each and every one."
Baba next went to Upasni Maharaj's hut, standing for a while outside the room. He again sat on the ground in the open, and the lovers and workers took this opportunity for his darshan.
Baba remarked, "I have stopped the touching of my feet; but since Godavri has touched them, today I permit all of you to touch them."
At 10:00 A.M., Baba left the spot and was taken to Godavri Mai's new residential quarters. A swing on which Upasni Maharaj used to sit was hanging there. Godavri and the other kanyas beckoned to Baba to occupy it, which he did. The kanyas began singing the ancient song of the swing in honor of Lord Krishna, which they used to sing when rocking Maharaj. They sang in unison as they gently swung Meher Baba to and fro. It was as if Krishna himself was once more playing with his gopis! As Baba left, the kanyas shouted, "Jai Upasni Maharaj, Jai Sadguru Godavrimata, Jai Shri Sadguru Meher Baba!"
Coming out of Godavri Mai's room, Baba again sat on the ground underneath a tree outside Maharaj's hut. Quietude and peace pervaded the rural surroundings. The fingers of Baba's right hand were moving briskly. Everyone stood silently around him like statues. For five minutes Baba sat immersed in his work, and then went to Godavri's old room, where he sat down in a chair.
Next, Baba visited the small room in the temple where Maharaj used to sit. Baba sat on a mattress on the floor. He beckoned the elderly nun Jiji to sit beside him.
"You are very fortunate," he remarked to her.
"My mind and intellect are at your feet," Jiji replied. "Nothing belongs to me."
Handing her some candy as prasad, Baba spelled on the board, "I am eternally happy; and yet no one suffers as much as I do. I am blissful, yet miserable!"
Usha Tipnis asked for his blessings, and Baba replied, "You must love me to such an extent that you lose yourself and then find me. Do you understand this?"
Usha nodded that she did.
"To say so is easy," Baba replied, "but to do it is difficult. How will you do it?"
