In
1932 Jagdev Singh came to see Baba with a subordinate Sikh officer.
Speaking about Baba's greatness, Jagdev Singh told the officer that
Baba would answer his question correctly even if he did not ask it. The
Sikh officer wanted to ask something in particular about his friend
Gainda Singh, whose son had disappeared in grief after the death of his
wife, but he did not say anything to Baba. Looking at him, Baba said, "You
want to ask about Gainda Singh's son who has run away from home. The
boy has been asking the priest in the gurdwara
[Sikh place of worship] at
Amritsar to take him as a disciple. His wife has died and his mother is
alive. The priest is not inclined to make him a disciple without his
mother's permission." The officer passed this
information on
to his friend Gainda Singh, who at that time was jailer at Farrukhabad.
Gainda Singh went to Amritsar immediately and brought his son back home.
