One
day while Baba and some devotees were staying in Rishikesh, a rash like
those seen in smallpox cases appeared all over Baba's body, though he
had no fever. Sri Ma applied Boroline to the rash, and it disappeared
the next day. She could not understand whose disease he had taken upon
himself. Baba then left Rishikesh and went to stay at his ashram in
Bhumaidhar. After a few days Sudhir Mukerjee came from Allahabad to see
him. He told Baba that one of his family members had been suffering
from a serious case of smallpox. Everyone in the house had been worried
and remembered Baba. The water with which Baba's feet had been washed
was kept carefully in their house and was given to the patient. By
Baba's grace he was cured overnight. This explained the mystery of the
rash covering Baba's body.
