Upon arriving at Ashiana, Baba asked Sarwar to sit quietly for five minutes, and feeling guilty, she obeyed.
Her anger dissolved, and Baba told her, "Anger is among the worst possible things and it should be swallowed. You stayed with me for so many years [at Meherabad], so you should be an example to others."
Baba's words impressed Sarwar deeply, and she repented for becoming so upset. She was thus convinced of Baba's omniscience, and the experience served as inspiration to her for the rest of her life.
During the Bombay stay, Goher's sister Katie kept Baba amused by her mimicry and funny stories; likewise, Jim Mistry kept Baba in good humor with his wit and jokes.
On Sunday, 20 October 1957, Khorshed brought a blind singer to Ashiana. Each of his hands had two fingers missing. Nevertheless, he was able to play the harmonium quite well and sang several ghazals, which Baba enjoyed.
Because they were in Bombay, and Baba had stopped the ayurvedic massages, Goher suggested consulting Dr. Talwalkar again. He advised new X-rays be taken, and so the mandali took Baba to a well-known radiologist, Dr. L. H. Athle, whose clinic was at the junction of Queen and Charni Roads. The new X-rays were shown to Dr. Talwalkar, who prescribed some oral medication.
As related, in September, Goher began looking for a chiropractor, and through A. C. S. Chari, she had contacted an American-trained chiropractor of Armenian descent, Dr. M. Alexander, in Calcutta about the possibility of Baba's going there for treatment. Baba's X-rays were sent, and Chari wrote that, according to Dr. Alexander, Baba definitely would benefit from a chiropractic adjustment.
While they were in Bombay, Goher received a letter from Adele Wolkin in New York. Adele was working as a nurse in a hospital and would often write, volunteering to help in any way she could by sending medicines or anything else needed for Baba. In her letter, Adele suggested that Dr. Harry Kenmore, the blind chiropractor who had met Baba in America in 1956, might be the right doctor to help in relieving Baba's pain. After reading the Family Letter about efforts to contact a chiropractor in Calcutta, Kenmore had also written to Goher, offering his services and suggesting Baba begin taking a calcium-phosphorous solution. Goher read Adele's letter to Baba, who decided to call Kenmore to India. On 23 October, Kenmore was sent a telegram to take the first available flight to India after the 1st of November.
