Baba assumes objector's

father's voice

Kaka Mahajani's friend who was a believer in Nirakara

worship alone and

objected to all worship

of forms, agreed out

of curiosity to go

with Kaka to

see Baba. He stipulated,

however, that he would

neither bow to Sai

nor pay any Dakshina. As

that friend was getting up the steps

of the mosque at

Shirdi, Baba said “Kayaveji” i.e., Welcome Sir;

But the voice that fell upon the friend's ears was that of his father

and thrilled him with joy. He at once fell down and placed his head upon Baba's

feet.

Baba asked Kaka therafter, twice for Dakshina, but did not ask this man, who thereupon whispered

to Kaka that he wanted to give Dakshina.

Baba : What is your friend saying? Kaka repeated his words.

Baba: He has not been asked because he was unwilling to give it. But if he wants to give it now, he may. Then

the friend paid Baba Rs,17,

Baba

: (to that man):

It is Teli's wall that separates you from us. Pull it down and

we can see each other clearly face

to face.

Then Kaka and his friend were starting

and the, weather was cloudy and threatening.

Baba.: Shama, let them go without fear or anxiety. There is no trouble from rain on their

return journey.

There was no rain till they reached the train, despite the clouds and

thunder.
