Jal Cowasji returned to Bombay much consoled.
The following year when Hoshang Bharucha stayed at Guruprasad, his mother and sister came to see Baba.
“”In the course of a discourse, Baba stated, "Perfect Masters have the power to bring back to life a person who may have died 300 years ago."
When the mother and sister heard this, they said to Baba, "If Perfect Masters can bring back to life a person dead for 300 years, you being the Avatar can bring Tehmie back in the same form!"
“”Baba replied, "I shall tell you in a dream about Tehmie."
The following year, when Hoshang's mother and sister met Baba again in Guruprasad, they made the same request.
“”Baba smilingly replied, "Tehmie has been reborn in the family of one of my lovers. She has been brought to me here in Guruprasad and has played on my lap."
One day Baba was reminiscing about his schooldays at St. Vincent's and remembered a close friend named Ludovik Viegas. Jalbhai mentioned that he had seen Viegas recently on the street. Baba said to bring him and he was brought to Guruprasad at 10:00 a.m., on the 12th. Baba stood and enveloped his old friend in a tight embrace. Viegas was ecstatic at meeting "Merwan" after 50 long years.
From the 14th of July 1959, both mandalis were instructed to fast by turns, the men mandali for two weeks and then the women mandali.
“”During the gathering on 13 July 1959, Baba revealed: "The Soul's knowing that it knows everything is dnyan. This means the all-knowing experience of the Soul is dnyan. The Soul says: 'Now I know that I know everything.' Therefore, the all-knowing Soul's not knowing that it knows was pure imagination."
Baba then rhymed:
“”Oh, you ignorant, all-knowing Soul
what a plight you are in!
Oh, you weak, all-powerful Soul
what a plight you are in!
Oh, you miserable, all-happy Soul
what a plight you are in!
What a plight!
What a sight!
What a delight!
While at Guruprasad, on Thursday, 16 July 1959, Baba stated:
“”As the Highest of the High, I am the Wisest of the Wise, yet I have allowed myself to perform an act more foolish than any fool ever would. What is this foolish act of mine? Creating the creation!
Creation is really a mighty joke, but the laugh is at my own expense — and now the jest is proving a burden on my chest.1 Sometimes, I am so tired I feel like going to sleep for 700 years. To the fool, a foolish action is more natural and effortless. But can you imagine the Most Wise exerting himself and stretching out to perform an act which is opposite to his attribute of Wisdom? That is why I say you can have no idea of what I mean when I say I am tired — it is beyond human understanding.
