"It is Baba," Abdulla answered.
Whatever Abdulla was asked he would answer with only one word: "Baba." He saw Baba everywhere.
On the fourth or fifth day, Abdulla began weeping bitterly — uncontrollably. The pain that filled his tears is indescribable. It cannot be compared to any suffering known in the world. Abdulla was starting to come down after seeing God — from the plane of light and bliss. From his sixth-plane state of consciousness, his mind was again entering the gross, material world, and that experience of coming down tore him to pieces, causing him to cry piteously.
On the fifth day, Baba directed that Abdulla be given an enema. After this was done, Abdulla slowly regained some consciousness of his surroundings. It was later revealed that Baba had decided that Abdulla had to return to normal consciousness and it was Baba who was bringing this about.
On Saturday, 14 January 1928, during the evening singing of arti, a boy named Rajaram was overwhelmed by the intensity of love and became unconscious, but his normal consciousness returned after some hours. The next day, a twelve-year-old Muslim boy named Abdul Wahab Kalingad burst forth in loud wailing and stopped eating or drinking, even refusing food from Baba's hand. (Later, Baba gave him the nickname Kalingad [or Kalinger ] which means watermelon.)
Three other boys, Ramaji, Lobhaji, and Rajaram, pleaded with Baba to keep them beside him and not send them to classes, as the Master's absence was unbearable to them. Baba acceded to their prayerful pleas, and starting on the 16th they remained with him. On this same day, Baba appointed Baidul as the Prem Master, shifting him from his previous position as the Prem Manager. Baily, who was staying in a room on the hill, was instructed to fast on one meal a day taken at noon.
Mohan Shahane had a private interview with Baba on the 16th. Sailor Mama's wife Najamai came the same day to see Baba as well as her son Dinshaw, who was studying in the ashram, but Najamai arrived late and had to depart without having Baba's darshan.
At 5:00 A.M. on Tuesday, 17 January, Dastur quite unexpectedly rapped on the window of Baba's crypt-cabin, disturbing him. Baba was usually so strict with his orderlies that even their quiet footfalls at times disturbed him; but for his own reasons, Baba tolerated Dastur's behavior.
At two that afternoon, while Baba was having a discussion with the mandali and boys, Baidul brought a cupful of rice and reported, "Baba, look at this; the rice is half-cooked. This is the sort of food Chhagan prepares."
