At 10:30 A.M., Harry Kenmore recited the Master's Prayer and this was followed by the arti. Afterwards, Baba sat for a photograph with Haribhai and his entire family. Baba remarked that he had consented to this only because Haribhai's newly married son had also come. He did not wish it to be made a precedent for everyone present.
Baba went into the side room and sat for about 45 minutes, discussing various matters, then left for his room at 11:45 A.M. He returned to the hall at 12:10 P.M., when the Ahmednagar bhajan group again entertained him. That day, Freny Dadachanji had brought her relatives from Karachi to meet him.
Meanwhile, Manek, Rustom Kaka, Chhagan, Rangole, Waman and Bhagirath arrived disguised as qawaali singers.
When they entered the hall, Baba remarked to Maharani Shantadevi, "A famous qawaal has come to sing today. His program will be the best ever at Guruprasad."
Playing along, Baba asked Manek his name, and he replied, "People call me Shahzada Lakhnavi Qawaal!"
"Who is your teacher?"
Pointing to Chhagan, Manek said, "Him. He is called Pirzada Lakhnavi Qawaal." ( Pirzada means the son of a Pir; Lakhnavi means hailing from Lucknow.)
Baba humorously remarked, "He does not look like a 'pirzada!' He looks more like a chap who roasts peanuts on the sidewalk for a living [in other words, someone scruffy-looking]!"
All burst out laughing, and only then did Shantadevi discover who these so-called "famous" qawaals were.
Nevertheless, Manek sang quite well, imitating delightfully the typical gestures of a qawaal. All dispersed after arti at 3:30 P.M.
After the program Manek sought Baba's forgiveness for the "deception," to which Baba replied, "Forgiven, because you pleased me so much."
After staying at Guruprasad for five weeks, Bal Natu left the following morning to return to his school teaching job.
As usual, Baba had called the Kalchuri family to Poona for a few days during the summer of 1963. Baba discussed with them their move from Meherabad to Khushru Quarters in Ahmednagar and their placement under Adi's supervision, so that the children could get a better education at a qualified school in town. (They moved on 13 June 1963 and occupied a few rooms on the western side, next to Piroja's room.)
On 5 June, when someone invited Baba to his town, Baba replied, "I am here and also there; I am near and also away. I am everywhere!"
Baba was in a mood to give a discourse that day. He began explaining about fana — annihilation of the false mind:
