Three men now entered and Baba explained these were the workers who had arranged to bring all the Andhra lovers to Poona on a special train. The workers had not yet seen Baba, although it was the third day after arrival. He reminded them He had once told some of the mandali twenty years ago, “There will come a day when you'll want to come from far away and you will not be able to see Me."
