I visited his ashrams for a couple of
years after Babaji took his samadhi.
It was during these visits that I realised I was not fitting in well
under the new environment. Sometimes I could not decide what was to be
done. Then I was reminded of what he had said in 1962, "Dada, you stay
at home." I did not understand then why he wanted me to do so. The
understanding came when my excursions to his ashrams proved to be a
failure.
After I stopped visiting the ashrams, some ardent
devotees started saying, "Dada has left Baba." When faced with a
statement like this, the only reply I could give was, "When did I catch
hold of Baba that I could leave him now? He caught me! I could never
catch him, so there is no question of leaving him." That is all of it.
