Pitaji had often said to me that no one knew of the detailed history of the past Avatars when they were in their old age and beset upon by the illnesses and frailties of the human body. The scriptures merely depicted the tales of their youthful days.“Old age “Old Age can be a curse. Nature sends illnesses upon the body in the old age when a person does not even have the strength to bear them.“Kissee poet ne likhaa thaa:‘Zamaane ke masaahib, umr lambi“Some poet had rightly said:‘The sufferings of the world, and an age that is longHere He was showing to the world how even Avatars had to undergo the travails of old age, sickness and suffering. He was giving a magnificent example to the world – by passing through these without a complaint, and always telling me that He was all right and would be all right. “I am not accustomed to coming to this earth in a body, and hence my body is more susceptible to pain than that of a human being who is accustomed to repeated births and deaths and the attendant sufferings. As I recollected these sayings of Pitaji they were of little consolation to me. I just could not bear to see my Dear, Dear, Pitaji suffer in any way whatsoever. He was doing a stark injustice upon His own body by flooding it with the sins and sufferings of the people of the world.
