A professional entertainer arrived who could imitate the sound of almost anything imaginable. He gave a short performance, much to the amusement of Baba and all those present.
At 10:30 A.M. the Master's Prayer was recited by Kenmore, followed by the arti, after which all departed.
The baby of Ramarao, one of the Guruprasad workers, had expired after a prolonged illness. The baby's mother came to Baba, but did not shed a tear. The humble woman bravely said she was happy in whatever was Baba's wish. Baba comforted her, and assured her that he had bestowed two children on her (one last year and another this year), and had taken both souls back to him again.
"Now I will bless you with another, but you will keep this one," he said.
In the afternoon the Navsari lovers sang bhajans until about two o'clock. Professor Ram Panjwani of Jai Hind College in Bombay then sang ghazals for an hour, drumming at the same time on a large chatti (earthen pot for storing water). Mohan-Saigal again sang several ghazals. At about 4:00 P.M. Baba's arti was sung and then all those present left after embracing him.
Adi Dubash arrived that day, and Baba allowed Adi and his son Merwan to come to Guruprasad daily. For months, Merwan had the habit of twitching his nose. He would do it at any time and often. Adi and Rhoda tried everything to make him stop, but nothing worked.
Once, when all three were present in Guruprasad, Baba asked Dadi Kerawala, "What are you thinking?"
Dadi replied, "You know it, Baba!"
Baba commented, "I have told you many times that I will give you a wife as beautiful as the moon, and still you are thinking about it. You must have complete faith in me. When an individual has 100 percent faith in me, and leaves everything to me, the burden automatically falls on my shoulders. I have my Universal work to do and I am totally engrossed in it, but the weight of that individual's burden reminds me of my responsibility toward him, and I do everything for such a person."
Right after Baba stated this, the thought came into Rhoda Dubash's mind: "Okay Baba, I leave Merwan's nose-twitching 100 percent to you."
Immediately after thinking this, Baba turned to her and gestured, "Why is Merwan twitching his nose?"
