Shakuntala would come for Shri Nathji’s darshan from Delhi almost daily. It was an impossible feat for a lady of her age to perform, given the erratic bus services to Malik Nagar from New Delhi and the great distance involved.
She prayed to Shri Nathji to shift to Delhi and stay at her new home for a while. Shri Vaidraj had left the government dispensary at 37, Lady Harding Road, and opened a small Ayurvedic dispensary of his own at 11/19, West Patel Nagar, which was his new home.
Shri Nathji was very reluctant to go there because he recollected that Shri Vaidrajji and his family had not been allowed to stay at Savitri Nivas by Mateshwari two years earlier. The hurt may still be lingering in their minds, Shri Nathji had said. However, Mateshwari insisted that they could stay there, on seeing the good faith of Shakuntala.
Shri Nathji would ever afterwards rue that decision of Mateshwari and say to the boys: “Maine kahaa bhee thhaa Mo ko ke Vaidraj ke ghar thhaiharnaa thheek naheen hoga, magar Mo ne naheen maana.
“I had told Mateshwari that it would not be appropriate to stay at Vaidraj’s place but Mo did not listen to me.”
Shri Nathji and his family came to live with Shakuntala and her husband Shri Vaidrajji. Very soon the place was flooded with visitors, people anxious for the darshan and blessings of Shri Nathji.
Shri Nathji met the visitors in his bedroom since there was very little space in the house. It was a magnificent gesture on the part of Shakuntala and her husband Shri Vaidraj to have invited Shri Nathji and his family to their home, the more so because Shri Vaidraj’s dispensary was also in one of the rooms of the house. Shri Nathji had never lived so close to a dispensary before.
To make matters worse, Tiger, the dog, was making a nuisance of himself. He would foul up Shri Vaidrajji’s dispensary every morning and thus create great ill-feeling and resentment. People visiting the dispensary would be greatly upset. One day the dog fell very ill, and a little tablet was discovered in its plate. It appeared as if someone had tried to get rid of the dog.
