In view of my long stay at Meherabad and Meherazad, the Nagar Meher Center has a special responsibility and role to play. In the future, when Meherazad and Meherabad become places of pilgrimage for my lovers from all over the world, the world will be truly looking forward to the Nagar Meher Center for receiving my Love and Truth.
Therefore, it is necessary for you to receive my Love and Truth by keeping your inner contact with me and by bringing your lives in tune with my will, and by living in a manner that would inspire others to follow you in loving me.
My nazar will be on everyone participating in the functions of the Nagar Meher Center, which no doubt will have a bright future, rising up to the expectations that the world will naturally build up.
May you all inherit my Life Eternal. My love and blessing to you.
Dharmarao saw Baba on the 6th, and Baba approved his design for the Mehersthan Center at Kovvur.
As announced, 7 June 1959 was the last Sunday for open darshan in Poona, and almost 4,000 persons flocked to Guruprasad to take advantage of this "last chance" for Baba's darshan and embrace, including a contingent from Vijayawada, Shantadevi and the close associates of Dada Vaswani. One person remarked about the crowd at the darshan, "It is like a tidal wave!"
Although Baba stopped giving darshan, certain workers from the Poona Center would come to Guruprasad every Sunday to play cards. Meherwan, Sadashiv, Meherjee, his brothers Beheram and Jalbhai, and nephews Sheroo, Rustom and Sohrab had permission to visit every day, and Jehangu had permission to visit whenever he had a day off from his job. Every day Baba would also go out for a walk somewhere, such as Sambhaji Park, Peshwa Park, Bund Garden, and so forth. Once when he was in Sambhaji Park, a man recognized him, so Baba immediately went back to Guruprasad.
Baba took the women out for drives on the 8th and 9th of June. On 17 June 1959, he took the mandali to the West End Cinema to see Charlie Chaplin's film Limelight , which he enjoyed.1
Afterwards, he remarked, "How fortunate Charlie is that I have seen his film and enjoyed it."
They also went to two other films.
