“”At the meetings, people are coming from all parts of India and Pakistan who love me. This is my last meeting, and I want to say some things that will last until I come back in 700 years. So, be fit and in the mood to listen.
Changing the topic, Baba continued:
“”Maharaj had told Yeshwant Rao that "Merwan is Parabrahma ," which means God Beyond. "So do whatever Merwan tells you to do," he said. As I told you, I did not sleep for nine months. Then I was with Maharaj until one or two o'clock in the night, and went to a small hut nearby, and Yeshwant Rao was with me. He would press my feet and give me betel leaves [paan] to chew. I did not eat, but every five minutes asked for paan. He could not sleep because I did not sleep. For seven years, this man served me with such love as is rarely found. When the atmosphere that I have described existed, it was Yeshwant Rao who was the target of these Brahmins for attending me. But Yeshwant was adamant. He obeyed Maharaj by obeying me, so he was put to great suffering, physically and mentally. Now, the atmosphere is so clear. He does not remind anyone of the old days. It is as if he has forgotten everything. He helps them with corn [grain] and money. Yeshwant Rao has now Maharaj and Baba as one in his heart. The refreshments you had there [at Sakori] were provided by his help.
We are all meant to be as honest as God, as loving as God, as happy as God, and only the Christ suffers for humanity, although He is the source of all happiness. You see me in this physical form, but every moment I am crucified. Only the fortunate ones know this. I suffer as no one could suffer; I suffer because I love.
Godavri is one of the most loveable beings in the world. And what she has tried to do all these years! How Godavri loves me, and what a virgin she is! She is like Krishna's mother. Some time ago, a well-known astrologer came to pay homage to Maharaj. I had already sent news to the West and elsewhere that I would break my silence and meet a violent death. She had received that circular and was much depressed. The date and time of my birth were given to the astrologer, and he said the months of November and December would be very hard for me.
