S.K. Shukla was very eager for promotion. Maharaj blessed him, and he became
deputy director of industries of the government of Uttar Pradesh. One
day his friend Bhagwati Sevak Bajpai went to Allahabad to have Baba's darshan,
and during the course of a conversation Baba expressed his annoyance
with Shukla. After staying the night, Bajpai took leave of Baba and
reached his house in Kanpur within a few hours. No sooner did he arrive
home than he phoned Shukla to tell him about Baba's displeasure.
Shukla, who had built a new house in Kanpur with a special room for
Baba upstairs, asked him to come to his house at once. On Bajpai's
arrival, Shukla said, "You were talking about last night. Well, Baba
was here with me then." As proof he showed him Baba's footprints. The
floor in front of Baba's room had been newly plastered the previous
day. Baba had walked on the wet floor going into the room, so his
footprints made a permanent impression there.
