The following phonograph records were then played:
Marian Anderson (an American singer): I Know the Lord's Laid His Hands on Me and Trampin'
Fritz Kreisler (an Austrian violinist): A selection from the operettas Student Prince and Indian Love Call
Richard Crooks (an American tenor): The Song of Songs and Love and Love Alone
Yma Sumac (a Peruvian singer; she had an extremely wide vocal range): Lure of the Unknown Love and Virgin of the Sun God
Some of the Western men did not especially care for the high-octave Latin music of Yma Sumac, but Baba stated, "As long as it goes to the highest and goes to the lowest, I like it. It reminds me of my original state. I feel happy."
Another song by Yma Sumac followed, which Dana Field translated (from Spanish) as: "I love only Thee, I worship only Thee, to Thee only I surrender the key to my treasure."
Baba commented: "He who could do this would know me.
"This reminds me, when I drop this body, which will come about through violence, not one will be near me at that time — none of my lovers, none of my mandali — only those who would kill this body. The circumstances will be so created that in the confusion Baba will not find one near him. Only afterward, they will flock around. It is staring me in the face. It might happen before the end of the year — my breaking the silence, dropping the body, and all this. In the meeting, I will speak at length about this."
At this point another record of Yma Sumac followed with the songs High Andes and Monkeys .
At the end of this record, Baba turned to Charles Purdom and remarked, "Dear Charles, can anyone imagine how I am here and simultaneously everywhere? I am being crucified every moment, and I would willingly die a million deaths to make someone love our Beloved God, Who alone is worthy of our love."
Purdom replied that he can imagine, but that is all.
Baba asked for another Yma Sumac record, and the songs The Dance of the Winds and The Chant of the Chosen Maidens were played. In the midst of one of these, a card was sent inside to Baba which read in part: "If I could see you only for a moment, I would be eternally grateful." It was signed by K. Hitaka. He came in and, deeply moved, prostrated himself before Baba.
