Baba told him to bring it, and Jim handed it to Bhau. Because Bhau knew that Baba did not like anything greasy, he took just a little of the oil and began rubbing it into Baba's legs. Jim joked, "You miser! Why do you take so little? Use more!"
It was very warm that day, and Bhau was perspiring as he massaged Baba's leg. Jim kept teasing him to use more oil.

Meherwan Jessawala left Meherazad for Poona on 1 March; two days later, Adi Jr. departed for England.
In March 1968, Lyn Ott sent Baba a large painting, portraying his meeting with Baba. It was hung in mandali hall at Meherazad, where it remains. Baba sent him this telegram:

Ben spent the night at Khushru Quarters, and the next day, he rode a bicycle to Meherabad with Padri, who had come into town. Ben was given a tour of Meherabad, and he met Mansari and other residents. He rode back to Adi's office, and when he arrived this note from Eruch was waiting for him:
