By then Irwin was not even thinking. He had made up his mind to say yes no matter what, and he felt he would obey if it was possible. Baba motioned for the doors to be opened again and everyone came back inside.
As mentioned, Kaikobad had come from Meherabad and Baba turned to him and said, "After I dismiss everyone, I want you to tell Irwin Luck what your experience is. Both of you sit on the bench outside."
Irwin did not know who Kaikobad was but had been feeling sorry for him as he looked so emaciated.
Kaikobad revealed to him: "Even in a dark room, sometimes such brilliant light comes out of me that if I wanted to I could even read a newspaper from it. I see planets, solar systems and worlds revolving within my own being. Sometimes I see a light which is more brilliant than any sun could ever be. In that light I see Baba's face; it comes out of that light. I can see Baba physically even when he is not there. But it is easier to see God in his impersonal form than his physical form."
Another day, Baba addressed Francis, "If Irwin has any questions you should answer them," and he told both to sit together later and talk.
Irwin did not really have any questions but to please Baba he thought of some.
On another occasion, as Baba was leaving, Irwin followed him out and began to lightly stroke his back. Baba did not seem to mind. He went into the adjoining room where a large vat of orange sherbet had been kept. Baba took a sip from the ladle, swished it around in his mouth and spat it back into the vat. He mixed it carefully with the dipper before pouring out some into glasses for each.
One day Baba revealed to Irwin, "You were sent to me by another guru."
Irwin felt as if Baba was looking back into the history of souls as he said this — into past ages. But Baba did not mention who the Master was.
Each day when Irwin came to Guruprasad, Baba wanted him to sit next to him. Also when they went out for a walk, Baba would walk with his arm around Irwin's shoulder. If someone happened to come between them, Baba would stop and pull Irwin close to him. Once this also happened in the car. Baba had gone to visit the home of one of his lovers with Irwin and a few others. While returning, one person sat in the back seat of the car between Baba and Irwin. The car started to drive off, but soon Baba took hold of the driver's shoulder and motioned for him to stop. Baba opened the door and stepped out. He then opened the door on Irwin's side, got in and sat down next to him.
