Deshmukh beseeched Baba to visit Nagpur.
Annoyed, Baba replied, "If Nagpur still exists, I will visit it after 700 years," and added, "Seven hundred years is not such a long time."
Baba also reminded this group of the recent Life Circular and observed, "But I am not bound in any way, and I may send for anyone I like and meet him."
In the Dehra Dun group, discord had arisen in some families about the manner in which certain family members were remembering and worshiping Baba. Baba settled the matter in his masterful way, by advising the parties concerned not to hurt the feelings of their near and dear ones, who may be against Baba. In such cases, Baba stated, he preferred that they remove his photographs from their house, not attend Baba meetings or revere him, and stop repeating his name audibly. Baba impressed upon his lovers the necessity of maintaining harmony among family members, and urged them to keep him enthroned in their hearts, and silently love him more and more with constant remembrance.
"Thereby," he concluded, "all avenues of dissatisfaction and discord in the family will be closed and they will have no cause for offense."
Again Baba asked Kaka to feel his pulse. Kaka did so and said the fever was 105°. Baba hinted to him to make it 106°. Baba humorously explained that Kaka was his "temperature doctor" who, after feeling his pulse, declared what the temperature was according to Baba's wish!
There were persistent requests from the Dehra Dun group, as well as from other groups for Baba to visit their towns.
Baba informed them, "It is not possible for me to visit Dehra Dun, or any other place now. I will see on my return from the West," and added emphatically, "I am God Personified. If anyone has the slightest glimpse of my Reality, he would not mind being cut into a thousand pieces!"
One man from this group blamed another for his family difficulties.
Baba explained to him, "Everyone has weaknesses. Only Baba is free from them. If someone loves his neighbor, it awakens love in all. If I have to listen to others' weaknesses, what would be the purpose for my going to Dehra Dun?"
He added, "If I were to turn my key, those who oppose me would become my devotees in no time. Anyway, even antagonistic remembrance is better than no remembrance!"
