We will now talk about the gift of love. The gift of love is very rare, and one is rarely capable of receiving it. If you obey me in whatever I tell you to do for one year from the 15th of February 1956, you will be worthy of receiving this gift of love. It is so simple, although at the same time so difficult to do as I say. There might be one man who might be able to do it. I have told the same thing to the previous three groups. When you hear me talk about it now, you will think that it is very, very easy; but to carry it out for one year is impossible.
From 15 February, exactly at twelve midnight, repeat my name [audibly] one night 14 times and the next night 28 and so on alternately for one year. But mind that you do not miss even a single night of repetition, come what may — even if you are on your deathbed. If you do that, then it will be easy for you to receive my gift of love. At that very moment, if you feel like going to the latrine, you should not stop repeating my name. Suppose a scorpion stings you at 11:00 P.M., and at 12:00 midnight you have to repeat my name — you must repeat it. For the whole day, you should not utter audibly my name. Inwardly do what you like, but it should not escape your lips. For 365 days every hour and minute, you will have to be alert, remembering my instructions so that you may not blurt [my name] out!
Now let me see who is ready and daring enough to receive my gift of love. It is absolutely impossible, still let me see who dares to do it. I am eagerly looking forward to bestowing this gift!
Continue telling people about Baba's love. Go on loving me. Look at Dr. Deshmukh. Not a day passes when he does not remind me about sahavas for women. So it is but natural for me to repeat that the sahavas program is only for my women devotees and their children — not outsiders.
A letter from Andhra was received yesterday. My lovers held a meeting in Tadepalligudem and decided on my sahavas with women. They will send Adi the details later. I have to go away for a year from the middle of February.
