Today, from 2:00 to 3:00 P.M., I want the men to come to my house just to see it and to receive the last embrace and prasad. Tomorrow is a holiday for me. A holiday for me means more work. The day after tomorrow, those going to the airport must get up at 3:00 A.M. and be ready to leave at 5:35 A.M., says Ned Foote. I and the mandali will be up at 3:00 A.M., so tomorrow is the day for packing. Eruch is with me constantly at the Lagoon Cabin and with me at my house until midnight. He always gets up at 5:00 A.M. So tomorrow he is free. Kitty tells me all of the group are going to the airport. Is it necessary? Are only the women going or are all going?
"All, Baba!" Kitty said.
This means that Harry [Mickey] Florsheim will have to blow the whistle seven times for Ben! Ben, get up at 3:00 A.M.; Harry will wake you! I am happy today — very happy. This morning, Nariman wrote Goher to convey to Mehera that I gave more of my love here than at the Meherabad Sahavas. It is a fact. Eruch says I am devoting more time to you here.
Mehera loves me very much. She loves me as I ought to be loved. She has written to Kitty a Marathi song in two couplets. This morning, Kitty told me she had received the couplets to be read to all in my presence, "What A Lover Should Do," by the Perfect Master Ramdas for his devotees. Ramdas and Tukaram were contemporary Perfect Masters.
Kitty read out the couplets, which Adi sang (in Marathi). The translation (including Baba's name, which Mehera had added) was:
May I always be blessed by your company. I want your company every moment of my life, And only in your cause should this body be sacrificed. O You, the Infinite One, having infinite attributes, Do not be indifferent to me!
O Meher Baba, Guru of Gurus, I ask nothing but this last wish. I do not ask for God or for God-realization, Please do not be indifferent to me!
