Astonished and relieved, the doctor said to Baba, "Had you come two or three minutes later, she would have died."

During this period, Naval was anxious about certain family matters. At 5:00 P.M. on 15 April, Baba visited his home and advised him: "Continue conscientiously discharging your duties in the world but do not care or worry about the results. The Infinite is within you and you are part of the Infinite!

"I am in Kalemama and also in Masaji. Masaji is 80 years old with all his teeth intact. Kale is 60 with several teeth missing. Should Masaji be glad that he has all his teeth at 80 and Kale worry as to why he had lost so many teeth before 60?

"There is no sum or substance in anything in illusion. He who has teeth and he who has no teeth — it is all the same. But he who has strong teeth should not purposely remove them because I say that it has no value, sum or substance.

"It — maya, illusion — is all nothing! There should not be distress in being healthy or being ill. One should not feel pleasure for what one has or be miserable for what one has not. This is true in every matter.

"There is absolutely nothing — not even zero! If there is nothing, then how can there be decay or death? No one dies and no one lives!"

Naval accepted what Baba had expounded.

Meanwhile Baba continued his communication with his Western disciples. On 6 April 1935, in closing a letter to Minta, he dictated this rhyme:

I see myself in everything

Infinite myself I find;

But when I see a rose in spring

Shalimar comes to my mind.

He wrote on another occasion:

Sweet Shalimar

Prepare to run

Prepare to fly

With me to Heaven.

Sweet Shalimar

Prepare to give

Your life to me

And in me live.

Sweet Shalimar

Prepare! It's near

Eternal Bliss

No doubts, no fear!

Sweet Shalimar

How sweet you are

How sweet you are

Sweet Shalimar!

Such endearing thoughts kept Baba's Western gopis at his feet during their separation from their Krishna.
