Lovers from Andhra and Hamirpur were given time with Baba on the 18th.
Pukar's family came, and Baba asked his wife, "Where should Pukar stay, here or in Hamirpur?"
She replied, "At both places."
Baba gestured, "Only I can do that, and I am living at both places!
The following day, Baba again spent time with his Hamirpur lovers. They were all poor, but had made the long and costly journey nonetheless. Baba remarked:
I like their love! They don't need discourses and explanations. They come with love and for love. To them, my embrace and darshan are sufficient. I do not have to undergo the headache of explaining things to them.
When the Avatar descends, he receives love from the poverty-stricken, the downtrodden, the backward classes and those suffering disease. Fishermen were the companions of Christ, cowherd boys of Lord Krishna. And it is these [Hamirpur] people who are my lovers! They are poor, but their hearts are clean. Their love pleases me.
Explanations and discourses are necessary only to create love in the literate and intellectual people who come. Not for these people.
One day Baba remarked to those gathered: "For me, all of you are presidents, prime ministers and cabinet ministers. They can come, they may come, and they will come, but those who come for love: that is quite different."
One day after bhajans were sung, Baba remarked to the singers and musicians:
It is mentioned without any exception in all the holy books that God exists. The mystics, saints and the God-realized Masters from all faiths confirm that God Alone Is. So it clearly follows that God can be seen, and you are duty bound to find Him and see Him.
This becomes possible only when you carry your life in the palm of your hand. Only then can you aspire to see God. You can see God far more clearly than the things you see of the material world. It matters very little whether you visit temples, mosques, churches or fire-temples, or whether you follow or do not follow the rituals and ceremonies that are current in society. What is really needed is an insatiable longing to see God. For this, you must have an unswerving faith in your Master and undaunted courage to carry out your Master's every command most willingly.
A few days back, you sang a song in my presence, the chorus of which was: "My Master has told me this ..." And today, all that I have told you just now is the real thing worth telling, hearing and practicing, too.
