Meher Today – 18th September

18 September 1922

On 18 September, Baba directed the mandali to go to Pushkar, an important historical place of pilgrimage, ten miles to the northwest of Ajmer. Considering his state of health, the men refused to leave without him. Baba tried to explain, “If I had stayed here alone, I would have been all right by this evening.

Yet since you will not go without me — and I do not wish to deprive you of enjoyment — I will come. But remember my words, it will be your fault that this present illness of mine will be prolonged for fifteen more days!”
