The design was approved by Baba, and the tailor took individual measurements to prepare one for each man. Kafnis were also made for Sadashiv and Vajifdar, who were in Poona and who were instructed by Baba to meet them in Kashmir. One bag, a water bottle and a pair of sandals were also brought for Sadashiv and Vajifdar, who were informed by letter of the conditions and restrictions to be observed during the tour.
The next day, 21 June, Baba with the mandali, Sohrab, and Rusi and his family, went to see the water works in the mountain pass at Urak — a fourteen-mile drive from Quetta. They stayed in the dak bungalow there, and games of seven tiles and thumps and bumps were played as Gulmai, Soonamasi, Khorshed and Rusi's wife cooked lunch. Baba served the food to all and sat down under the shade of a tree where a stream was flowing. After lunch, Sohrab took photographs of Baba and of the group. They then proceeded to the reservoir, the main source of water for the whole of Quetta. Baba scaled a steep ridge of the mountain, and Sohrab again took several photographs. As he stood on the mountain ridge, the sparkling rays of the Master's divine form seemed to illuminate the entire surroundings. He looked so splendid, as if he were sending the message to the world to turn its attention toward him — informing mankind that there was nothing more worth seeing or worshiping than he!
On 22 June, there was a lengthy discussion in the afternoon between Baba and the mandali about the upcoming foot journey. All agreed to abide by the following conditions:
1. Those who are to accompany Baba on the foot journey do so of their own free will and at their own responsibility, and in proof of this all should sign an official stamped paper to this effect.
2. Each man has agreed not to leave Baba under any circumstances until the tour is over, though they have also agreed to obey Baba if he sends away anyone at any time — to any place of his (Baba's) choice.
3. Despite Baba's frequent advice to Asthma to remain at another place, he is obstinate to remain with Baba and the mandali and wants to go on his own responsibility, cost and risk.
4. Not one of the mandali should expect any material or divine help from Baba.
