They sent me a telegram, and I cabled back that if Nozar's dead body was recovered within five days, it should be sent to Meherabad. I wanted to test the love of Naoroji, his sons Dara and Homa, and his daughters Arnavaz, Roda and Nargis. The plane was discovered after a week in a lake and Nozar's body removed. When this tragedy took place I was in Poona for a change. But the chamatkar [miracle] here is the love of the bereaved ones, and their silent submission to my will. The real miracle on the part of the family was their regret to disturb me during my change and rest.
Baba then mentioned the incident of seeing the blind boy during the Hamirpur tour and having the urge to give him sight.
At the end, Baba remarked, "I tell you, I am the Avatar, and see how I talk! I should not have said all this. I must toba karo [repent]!"
And Baba slapped his own cheeks lightly in repentance.
Regarding a sahavas program solely for women, Baba continued:
I have spoken about this to the Gujarati and Telugu groups and also want to discuss it with you so that you may arrive at an immediate decision. My lovers in America sent me a pressing message through Don Stevens, saying that I should come and see them there, even if it was only for a few days. I replied I had no time. For me, there is no man or woman. Where there is love, I go. If I wish, I can gather a huge multitude in five minutes; but there is no greatness in being surrounded by crowds.
Arrange as best you can for the women's sahavas, but remember that my pockets are empty, and I will be bringing with me five to seven of the mandali whose traveling and accommodation expenses you will have to defray. But under no circumstances will men be allowed to participate in this sahavas. It will be only for women and children. If I do travel, I will go to all places where I am invited.
Niranjan Singh asked, "Would you come to my college in Delhi? All the students love you."
Baba smiled and said, "Only for ten minutes."
Touching on work done in his name, Baba stated:
Every time, I have been telling you to love me more and more, and to tell others about my love. Today, I want to stress the point that before speaking to others about my love, search within your own hearts and determine if you are worthy to love me or not.
