The third man [Pleader] came to me and said, "Baba, I want God-realization." I asked him if he did not want other things as well. He replied, "Nothing but God-realization." I then asked him to lock himself in a room for three years and to take only milk, no other food and no reading or writing. And the man did this. He had the daring to do it. This man did not leave his room, and when he found a cobra in it one day, he waited until Sidhu, who brought him his milk, came and killed it.
I want you all to know that love for me should not have any demands or wants. Wanting had its origin in the very first urge of God: "I want to know myself. I want to know who I am."
The original want has expanded into so many different wants, illusory wants: "I want to know myself, I want this and that." It is continuous. Life after life, evolution of the illusory want goes on until one gets fed up and wants nothing. At that instant he gets the answer to his first question: "Who am I?" with "I am God."
One should live a normal life and just love Baba, and not be attached to living. Then you will have a curtain of Baba's love protecting you from the world. Do not feel attached. How? By loving me and thinking of me.
Baba concluded: "Christ's greatness was not in his power or miracles, but in his humility being crucified. His humility was his true greatness."
Baba then sent the entire group out and had each one brought in singly to receive prasad. Baba had instructed that he was not to be asked any questions, but one young lady, a university student, became pushy and said, "I am going to ask questions. How can I know if he is God if I don't ask questions?" Then she went for her prasad. When she came out, Clarice Adams was by the door. The girl looked awestruck and said, "I don't know what happened. I just got to the door. I felt paralyzed and I got down on my knees."
Baba gave Beryl Giddens the privilege of washing some of his clothes.
After Baba had eaten his lunch, he sent half of it back to the women in the kitchen, who had cooked it for them, to eat as prasad, and they were overjoyed.
