(4) Baba wants him to stop for all time taking these drugs, which he used to take. He must not either take drugs or deal in drugs, but live an honest and normal life at his place and advise others not to take drugs for the pleasure of indulging in them. Of course, he can take medicines when they are indicated for any ailment and when prescribed by a medical practitioner.
(5) Baba wants him to leave India as soon as possible and Baba will help him inwardly if he — Stanley — remembers Baba wholeheartedly, and carries out 100 percent the instructions given him as mentioned above. As for seeing Baba after his seclusion, he should remain in touch with the lovers in New York or in his locality, and whenever Baba gives his call to his Western lovers to come to see him, only then should he come to India for this purpose.
(6) All that is said in points given in this letter equally applies to his friend, Ben, if he is ready to carry out Baba's instructions. Therefore, Baba wants Stanley to contact Ben and tell him of this letter.
(7) Think of [Baba] as often as possible in the midst of his worldly day-to-day duties while discharging his responsibility diligently and honestly.
Baba sends his love and blessing to Stanley and Ben. Go back to the United States of America as soon as possible and leave India at an early date.
