Baba forbade Khorshed from visiting Bindra House and also wished that the four Akbar Press families not get involved with this so-called guru. Correspondence between Mani, on Baba's behalf, and Eruch's uncle Meherjee Satha, at Akbar Press, had been going on about these matters for more than a year. Finally, after several postponements due to Baba's recent seclusion, Baba called a meeting of the Jessawala, Kerawala, Satha and Damania families at Meherazad at 9:00 A.M., on Sunday, 10 January 1960. The meeting lasted until noon. Baba made it clear that only those who agreed to obey and abide by his decision should attend the meeting.
Of the four families, 24 members were present that day, as were Eruch, Mani and Goher. Baba asked whether each had slept well.
Someone asked Baba whether he had slept, and he replied, "I sleep 24 hours, and yet at the same time I am always awake!"
Baba opened the proceedings by remarking:
Today I will clear up all the misunderstanding and confusion and give my decision, which will be final and irrevocable. It is said that I am envious, that I do not like to see people getting attached to saints. The fact is that I am envious, but I can only be envious of myself, for there is nothing greater or beyond me — I am above and beyond everything. India is dotted with saints — real and false — and I warn people against attaching false importance to the "experiences" they receive from such saints.
Khorshed is sincere when she speaks of her having experiences and they are genuine. But from my height, these experiences have no importance or value whatsoever. Whenever people relate their experiences (even when such experiences are based on my personality), I emphatically discourage them and warn them not to pay attention to them.
Eruch related the experience of Balak Bhagwan, the seventeen-year-old boy from Madhya Pradesh, who was filled with Baba's light and presence, and saw Baba everywhere and in everything. He imagined himself to be on the fifth plane and was giving darshan and prasad to people. Baba had Eruch write a very firm reply, putting an end to such false interpretations to the experiences. Baba likened the experiences to a tamasha (roadside magic show) which dazzles for a while and distracts the pilgrim's progress, proving more of a hindrance than a help.
