Baba chuckled and gave him a kiss. But sometimes Francis too came "under fire." One day, when Baba reprimanded him about something, Francis started weeping and felt much regret. Later Baba called him and gave him instructions about some writing work.
Baba assured him, "Don't get discouraged; you are really doing well, and I am quite satisfied with you. I only said what I did earlier so that your heart will be more comfortable!"
Baba gave him a kiss, and Francis, now all smiles, left bursting with gratitude and happiness.
One day N. S. Agrawal of Nagpur came for a few hours and, seeking solace, pressed his head on Baba's feet. As he returned to his seat, he requested that Baba give him darshan, "I have come for darshan; I have got to have darshan."
"You have just had Baba's darshan!" Eruch remarked.
Still, with folded hands, Agrawal repeated, "Baba, I pray to you to give me darshan."
"You mean real darshan," Baba stated. "Only a rare one is fortunate enough to have that darshan — seeing me as I should be seen."
"If you bless me, as Lord Krishna blessed Arjuna, then I will have Vishwaruup darshan."
"Vishwaruup or Virat darshan which Arjuna had was not real darshan. It was just the darshan of Krishna's Universal Body. In Virat darshan, there is fear. That is why Arjuna felt afraid. In real darshan there is only bliss."
One man interrupted, telling Agrawal, "And that is why Arjuna repeatedly prayed to Krishna to withdraw the cosmic vision and begged him to reappear in his usual attractive human form. So you, too, should now feel content to have Baba's darshan in this Avataric form, which is due to your good fortune."
Agrawal replied, "Why? I am not content. The mind rebels, remains dissatisfied and the heart craves for real darshan."
In response, Baba stated, "Good! But you have no idea about real darshan. It is quite different from Virat darshan. In real darshan, there is ever-renewing bliss; there is no fear. The only way to have such darshan lies through love, and to love me is not easy. To follow love is to keep oneself prepared for greater and greater sacrifice. In leading the life of love, you must have that readiness to leave anything or everything at my signal; or willingly retain your connection with the family, business or society, if so desired by me.
