Here was a different kind of mahatma – a great yogi who had devotees of his own, but who recognized the divine supremacy of Shri Babaji Bhagwan and came humbly before him, after divesting himself of his pride. He obtained such great faith in Shri Babaji Bhagwan that he would come daily to the darbaar of Shri Babaji and serve there with his own hands in full view of his devotees, and he would say to his devotees:
“Now is the time for you to serve Shri Babaji Bhagwan when he sits in disguise before you. In later times when he reveals himself in the fulness of his glory, not even kings and emperors shall get a chance to serve him!”
Shri Babaji Bhagwan would test the Yogi sometimes through his love and sometimes through his sternness, and the Yogi would accept both with happiness. He remained steadfast to Shri Babaji Bhagwan even during the days when Shri Babaji Bhagwan had enacted the fearsome drama of bringing opposition against himself.
If even the least of Shri Babaji’s devotees would go to visit the Yogi he would serve the devotee with his own hands even before his own followers. He had great love for Shri Nathji, and Shri Nathji in turn loved him deeply as well. He served Shri Babaji Bhagwan and Shri Nathji very faithfully for a long time.
Shri Babaji Bhagwan would often say: “If you obey me you will profit by one paise. But if you disobey me you shall profit by one rupee!”
By this Shri Babaji Bhagwan meant that he who obeyed him received his reward immediately, but he who did not obey him had to suffer the consequences of his actions, and would thereafter learn a greater lesson, and thus reap a richer reward!
