GG Narke and Baba

[Guest guest]

At Baba's Arati. G.G.Narke found him

in a rage without any apparent cause and wondered if Baba was mad. This was a

passing thought. Later in the evening when G.G.Narke.

massaged Baba's feet.

Baba to G.G.Narke.: I am not

mad "

 

One day G.G.Narke

thought that Baba should give him the opportunity to serve him, by going out at

noon

to beg food as his proxy in the village at the four customary places, as Vaman Rao Patel, B.A.. L.L.B., was then doing.

Some Devotee : Baba, should not Vaman Rao be sent

for Bhiksha ?

Baba. (pointing to G.G.Narke }: Let this man go and beg food for me.

G.G.Narke had that privilege for four months.

G.G.Narke found Baba distributing Kupnis

(gowns), and thought (from a diastance) that Baba

should give him a Kupni.

Baba. (not giving him one) :

Do not blame me for not giving you one.

That Fakir (God) has not permitted me.

[NB.- Kupni denotes

asceticism, G.G.Narke

was not to be an ascetic but a Grihasta, i.e., a

family man]
