Shri Nathji’s feet were always a marvel to behold. The feet, which were always covered with socks, were unveiled every time he took a bath. “Garmi to saari bhakt nikaal le jaate hain!“The devotees take away all the heat!”There was the rare occasion in Akola in January 1951, when Shri Nathji’s feet had been anointed and washed in milk and honey by fifty pandits in a grand RUDRA ABHISHEK–the worship of Lord Shankar, Rudra. It was a time when Ram Lal and the devotees at Akola had worshipped Shri Nathji as Lord Shankar.“Babaji ke pair bilkul marble ki tarah thhe!“Babaji’s feet were just like marble!”Priya Nath considered himself to be the most fortunate person upon earth to have the privilege of seeing and touching Shri Nathji’s feet every day, even as he put on or removed his socks, or changed them.
