The next day, (June 1955) Baba set out at 7 P.M. with Eruch, Baidul, Kumar and Meherjee, for mast contacts in Islampur, Kolhapur, Savantwadi, Belgaum and Hubli. Reaching Savantwadi at 2 A.M., Baba instructed Baidul, “Awaken the headman of the village here and inquire if there is any mast in this place.” The man was sleeping in a large room. Baidul woke him, asked the question, and the man, without getting displeased for having been roused in the middle of the night, gave the name of a mast. They then went to have tea in a restaurant. It was closed. The proprietor was awakened, and he prepared tea for them. Both the headman and the restaurant owner were fortunate to be awakened at such a late hour, as they had Baba’s indirect contact. After contacting the mast of Savantwadi, Baba drove on to Hubli, reaching it at 4 A.M. After four hundred and sixty miles of continuous travelling to different places to contact masts, Baba and the men returned to Satara on June 3rd (1955) at 6 P.M.
