Gustadji's brother Slamson was granted an interview with Baba on the evening of 30 August. Sailor's wife Naja arrived from Poona the next day to enroll their son, Dinshaw, in the Meher Ashram. Baba had held Dinshaw after he was born and would refer to him as his "disciple."
On 31 August, an unusual young Hindu named Baboo arrived. Baboo had often stayed at Meherabad before, and Baba had hinted to the mandali that he was "in the line." The young man's eyes looked blank, and he seemed unconscious of his body and his surroundings. When anything was asked of him, he remained silent unless the question was repeated a number of times, and only then did he repeat his answer two or three times mechanically. Baba ordered the young man provided with food and shelter as long as he wished to remain.
On the morning of Thursday, 1 September 1927, Baba rode on a donkey that was being used to carry muroom (crushed earth) to fill in the tennis area. At 3:00 P.M. as usual there was a tea party at Shahane's where Bhausaheb sang. At 6:30 P.M. he called all the boys and teachers and explained seriously that all the rules should be strictly observed, and mentioned that the "special instruction class" was the most important one in the ashram.
That evening, Baba went to Anna 104's home in Ahmednagar, where he had dinner.
While being served, Baba commented, "Any food taken by or coming in contact with a Realized One, gets a tremendous push. For example, Maharaj once ate a mango and said that not only will the mango be benefited but those who eat the fruit from its seed will also be tremendously benefited."
For the next three months, Baba primarily supervised the activities of the Hazrat Babajan High School and Meher Ashram, in which more than 170 boys were now enrolled. Baba would play games with the boys and teach them Persian, dictating from his alphabet board.
In the evenings, Ramjoo often read stories to Baba of the fictional British detective Sexton Blake. Sometimes Baba would play a game of chess with Ghani. Occasionally Baba would form two chess teams — himself, Dhake, and Kaka Shahane versus Ghani, Ramjoo, and Chanji — and play against each other. The rest of the men would watch these chess matches attentively. Ardeshir and two of the boys, Burjor and Jamshed Khan, would frequently sing for Baba.
