Bhushan Chandra Joshi was promoted to deputy inspector general of prisons in
Uttar Pradesh. He was not at all happy with his promotion. He did not
know whether to accept the appointment or not because he had a weak
heart and was afraid that too much traveling would be involved. He was
confused and could not decide what to do. He went to Kainchi to seek
Baba's advice on the matter. When he was at the gate of the ashram,
Baba was sitting in his room. Baba said to the devotees present, "Joshi
is coming. He thinks he would die of touring duty." They
did not understand what he meant. After a short while Joshi ji came
into the room, and Baba said to him, "Are you afraid?
Will you die of a touring duty? Accept the promotion. You still have to
become inspector general."
Although there was no chance of him becoming an inspector general
(I.G.), or so he thought, he did in time become an additional I.G. and
later retired from that post.
