She was taken inside the Lagoon Cabin and seated on the floor in front of Baba.

Baba gestured to her, "Show me where it hurts the most."
Peggy put her finger on the outside of her ankle.Baba reached down and put his hand over her ankle.The next moment she got up and walked out of the cabin.Her ankle did not cause her a second's more pain; there was no discomfort and no swelling.It was apparently healed.

From noon to 2:00 P.M., Baba again gave private interviews in the Lagoon Cabin.To one American, who asked if he should pray every day, Baba again quoted Hafiz, "One moment in the Master's presence is worth 100 years of prayers."

Dana Field was told, "You are one of the mandali. Continue the work of an apostle."
Baba told Don Stevens the same thing.
Energy Florsheim said, "Baba, allow me to work in your cause even after you drop your body," which touched Baba deeply.
Bili Eaton had come from New York for the sahavas.She was feeling full of guilt the entire time, as she had fallen in love with a man and had disobeyed Baba's six-month order regarding celibacy.When she first met Baba in the Lagoon Cabin with several others, she hid in a corner behind everyone where Baba could not see her.
“”
Baba had chatted with everyone and then asked, "Bili — where is Bili?" and called her to him.
Bili later narrated:
You can imagine sitting at Baba's feet and him looking at me.I thought: "Oh God, what am I going to do?"I just felt this heavy pull, and he looked at me and said: "Do you love me as much as ever?"Time was going fast and slow at the same time.My mind was racing — what kind of answer can I give him?I did not know what to say.Then he said, "Do you love me as much as Anita does?"I had no way of knowing, so I said, "Baba, only you know all hearts."And he smiled and let me off the hook.
Another time when Bili had come to the Lagoon Cabin, five of the group were reading letters to him.Still feeling guilty over her affair, she was trying to be happy and not cry in front of Baba.To offset the feeling of sadness, she began working herself up into a rage.
