Daulatmai also stayed with them in Irani Mansion, and they would daily come to the Bharucha Building for Baba's darshan. One day Baba, accompanied by Gustadji, visited the ladies at Irani Mansion and asked Mehera and Khorshed to sing a favorite song. Khorshed sang one about Lord Krishna, but Mehera felt too shy. So Baba turned to Gustadji, who sang, "O God, please listen to me!"
One day Baba went for a walk with Naval Talati to Chowpatty Beach.
Baba's gaze happened to fall on a man sitting in a pensive mood, and he asked Naval, "Who is that person?"
Surprised, Naval replied, "Baba, how should I know? Thousands come here every day. He might be anyone."
Baba said, "Go and ask him his name and find out what he is thinking."
Naval hesitated, asking, "What do we have to do with him? But if you insist, I will inquire."
Baba and Naval walked over to the man and called him. The man turned out to be a friend of Naval's. He asked, "What do you want?"
Baba answered, laughing, "We don't want anything."
The man queried, "Then why are you disturbing me?"
Baba replied, "To tell you that only bliss and joy are destined for you!"
Astonished, the man replied, "Joy? I am not so lucky! Happiness is not part of my life. All my happiness has gone away!"
In a serious tone, Baba explained, "Your false idea of happiness will vanish to bring you real bliss. It will be removed to find true joy. So why be miserable and unhappy?"
Hearing this, the man was puzzled and wondered, "Who is this man who reads my mind?" He gazed at Baba and asked, "Who are you?"
Baba only smiled, but his smile was the turning point in the man's life. As he looked at Baba, he was roused from his painful reverie and freed from the sorrow gripping his heart.
Naval told his friend about the Master, and Baba said, "You have a very important part to play in my cinema!"
At this point, the man disclosed, "I too have a cinema ... I am the owner ..."
Baba laughed and said, "I am talking about the Universal cinema. By coming to me, you will find out what that is. But what I want to tell you is that good luck is in store for you and you should not feel dejected."
