The day after Baba gave up the alphabet board, he came to the mandali's bungalow with his hands wrapped in handkerchiefs, so that he would not make signs with his fingers. He sat with the mandali, and the above message was read out to him. When he wanted to convey something, everyone had to guess what it was by looking at him. Everyone's guesses were wrong, except Eruch's. Ramjoo remarked, "This exceeds all miracles! It is really unbelievable to guess something from facial expressions."
Another bungalow in Satara, called Jal Villa , was rented, where Krishna, Nilu, Bhau, Kaikobad and later Krishnaji began to stay. During this period at Jal Villa, Baba again began working with Kaikobad daily.
In the absence of his alphabet board, it was difficult for Baba to convey what he wanted to communicate. One of the mandali would repeat the English alphabet, and Baba would stop him at a particular letter. A tedious ordeal, it took a lot of time to grasp what he meant. Sometime later, Baba began writing in the air with his fingers, but this, also, was difficult to follow. At times, he would write on the floor, which was also not easily deciphered.
Gradually, after some months, Baba began making signs with his fingers, and a new language of gestures was created. He would form English letters with his fingers, occasionally using his ear for "E," and pointing to his eye for I. The language, though, had no sign for the letters "J" and "F." When Baba wanted to use these letters, one had to repeat the alphabet and Baba would nod his head when one came to "F" or "J." Baba was quite fast and adept in using this new "finger-language," and some in both mandali could read his gestures. In the men, Eruch was the quickest to recognize his signs, and among the women, Mani.
As Baba once remarked, "The world is dancing every moment to the signs of my fingers."
One morning a 26-year-old wandering, naked sadhu from Hamirpur came to Rosewood. He was not allowed to enter. He was told that Baba was in seclusion and was not meeting anyone. The sadhu's name was Ramdas (meaning, servant of Ram); he had heard of Baba and was determined to see him.
