Meeting Baba at Hygeia House, Markey felt "like a bewildered child, wholly at a loss to know how to behave, what to do, or what to say." When he was ushered into Baba's room, he found himself "in the presence of the most sublime embodiment of purity in human form I had ever beheld." He knew and experienced having at last met the One for whom he had been searching.

During the Master's most recent visits to Europe and America, it seemed he was not as concerned to meet new people as he once had been. Kitty and some of the others were always eager to introduce new people to Baba. Kitty would even try to get them to sit next to Baba in the car or at a movie, which did not always please Baba. Baba once remarked to her, "I will draw the whole world to me when the time is ripe and when I want."

On one occasion, Baba went to have tea at the apartment of one of the English group. After a while, suddenly his face took on a grave, serious look as if he were in tremendous pain. When the atmosphere calmed, Baba explained, "If you knew the agony which thousands are undergoing this moment in Spain, you would understand my pain." Civil war was raging in Spain at the time.

Unknown to most present, before coming to Europe Baba had cabled the person in America entrusted with keeping his mysterious, secret book, to bring it to London. This was done in absolute privacy and the book, along with some charts and other material illustrating the creation and progress of consciousness through evolution and involution, was handed over to Baba. 

November 6 was Baba's last day in London before going to Zurich. Baba gave final instructions to individuals; then he and a group left for Victoria train station. Kitty and Margaret had brought him small bunches of violets, which Baba lovingly distributed to each as a parting token of his love.
