and many win first prizes. There is one very interesting thing: it is an ancient custom in North India to greet one another in the morning with the words 'Sita Rama' or 'Jai Rama' instead of 'good morning.' Now they say 'Jai Baba' although the custom is thousands of years old.

"Many workers are putting their hearts into work for me but there are differences among the workers. All their differences arise through intense love for me. In this country Ivy has a small group, and yet there are differences. Is that true, Don?" Don Stevens answered, "Here and there." Baba continues, "In a big group, there are big differences. So in Andhra I had to spend a whole night in Rajamundry discoursing on work. But in spite of doing their best to follow my instructions, difficulties remained; so at the sahavas they had complaints to make.

The workers have love for "Baba” no doubt, but at the same time they have their characteristic weaknesses. The great difficulty resides in the expression of one's ego—the feeling of self-importance by which one is possessed, despite one's best efforts do lose it. The heart is for weakening
