Baba also remarked to him, "Time never existed at all."
After more conversation related to some pending work, Baba turned to Lyn and stated, "I want you to see how I manage every detail."
After fifteen minutes, Baba sent one of the men mandali to ring the bell, calling Phyllis back to the hall. He embraced the couple again. Lyn Ott later recounted:
As we went to pass through the door, I turned to see Baba one more time. He looked so very tiny; I thought I could pick him up and put him in my pocket. Phyllis had exactly the same feeling. As we passed through the door, Baba said, "I am always with you."
Baba instructed the couple to go directly home from the meeting and to fly sooner than they were scheduled, which they agreed to do even though it meant an additional $500 (which had to be wired by Fred Winterfeldt). They boarded the afternoon train for Bombay and flew back to America two days later.
The same afternoon, Baba had Eruch write to Adi, asking him in great detail what the Otts had said about their meeting.
"Were they happy? When did they leave? Did you give them definite instructions about their journey? Did you tell them that they had not to change [trains] at Dhond or at Poona? Were they given a snack to refresh themselves during the journey?"
Before leaving Bombay on 6 October, the Otts received this message from Baba:
Baba wants you to repay Fred Winterfeldt the $500 he paid for the difference in your return fare. Baba says you are not to return to India, as Baba does not wish to be disturbed until November 1967, which is very important for his Universal work. You should also not encourage anyone in Woodstock or elsewhere to come to India.
Baba sends his love and blessing to dear Lyn and Phyllis. Baba is very happy with their love for him and with their implicit obedience. Baba is happy that they visited him, because Baba had promised Lyn that he would make it possible for Lyn to see Baba before long, and the promise is fulfilled.
