Surrender is so difficult. I, myself, would not be able to do it! To descend as the Avatar is easy, but to surrender mind, body and soul is impossible! Hafiz says: "Whatever the Master says, accept it with all your heart without thinking." If I tell you I will visit your house tomorrow but don't, and again promise and don't come — and continue doing like this — you should not think about it. There should not be the slightest doubt in your mind. But who can trust this human mind?
Hafiz says: "Because you cannot grasp them yourself, do not tell lies about truths you hear from a Master." When a Sadguru says something, you cannot understand what he means. So, if you do not follow him, you should not come to the conclusion that he is telling a lie. If you say the Perfect Master is lying, then it is you yourself who are lying, because you cannot grasp what he says.
From here, you should all go directly to your respective homes. Do not break your journey for pilgrimage along the way. To come to me is, in itself, difficult; and therefore, when you go, go straight home. If you do not do it, it would mean your coming to me here is half-hearted. It would mean you had not come here exclusively for me.
Baba cited the instance of Dr. Daulat Singh, who was once a very well-known and influential man. But, although he fell on hard times, his love for Baba did not diminish. He had full faith in Baba's will and was content in all circumstances.
At 8:45 A.M., Baba escorted the Hindi group up Meherabad Hill, and they were shown the same spots as the other groups before them. Different group photographs with Baba were also taken. On his return at 10:00 A.M., Baba granted personal interviews, which lasted until 5:00 P.M. While departing, Sripat Sahai read out a poem to Baba, and thereafter, amidst shouts of his Jai, Baba departed for Meherazad.
