The one of Zoroastrianism speaks out: "I am the finest and prettiest of all. None can hold a candle to me!"
"No, no," the Christian hag asserts. "No one can compare with my beauty!" In the same way, all traditionalists of various religions take their religion to be the best, and belittle and put down that of others.
As the 72 hags are quarreling back and forth, a woman treading the path of divine love passes by. She is a true seeker and beautiful. Hearing their boasts, she feels pity for the old, barren ones who consider themselves good-looking and progressive, but who sadly only indulge in worthless, superfluous chatter. Keeping Beloved God aside, they act as the spokesperson for their religions and give importance to dogmas, rituals and ceremonies. All 72 hags, on seeing the seeker, shout out against her, "See how ugly she is! She follows no religion!" But the true lover of God goes her own way, without caring for such babblers. She tastes the essence of divine love, while they fight over dry bones!
The true lover can also be represented by an elephant, and those opposing her as dogs. The dogs, by nature, bark at the elephant, but she goes on her way without any fear of the dogs.
The God-Man or Sadguru knows that these 72 women and also the follower of true religion are none other than himself.
In conclusion, Baba observed, "To be a lover is most difficult. The real lover never poses, and this type of lover, which I want, is most rare. To [reveal the utter] helplessness of a lover, Hafiz has said, 'In loving my Beloved, I have become like an ant under the foot of an elephant — safe and secure, but helpless to move!' "
This message from Baba to the editor of Kalpavriksha magazine in Ujjain was sent by telegram on 30 March:
"The more you discuss God the less you understand Him. So love God and become God."
On 31 March, Amiya Das of Calcutta returned for darshan, and Baba presented him with a glistening white rose. That afternoon at 4:30 P.M., Baba and nine of the mandali were driven to Bindra House and then Peshwa Park.
Regular darshans began from the 1st of April. Bal Natu arrived on the afternoon of the 2nd, and Raosaheb came from Bombay that evening. Elcha returned to Simla, via Bombay, at the end of March.
