Mrs. Gangabai Bhutt arrived from Nagpur for Shri Nathji’s darshan, bringing with her a patient of tuberculosis, a certain Gajanan Kerhalkar. The man was so weak that he found it difficult to climb up the stairs. But after only a few days of Shri Nathji’s darshan, the man became so strong physically and mentally that he was seen walking up and down the four flights of stairs like a young man. This was the greatest miracle in the man’s life. He attributed it ever afterwards to the blessings of Shri Nathji at Wassiamal building. The man lived for many years afterwards, and in 1978 even went to live in Mussoorie as the caretaker of Savitri Nivas.
Gangabai was overjoyed at seeing Shri Nathji and Mateshwari at Bombay, although she was saddened at seeing the entire family looking weaker than ever before.
She had last seen them together at 40 Lodi Road, New Delhi in March 1952 at her home.
It was a historic visit for her, because her love for Mateshwari was revived once again. At first there was some friction, as always, between Mateshwari and Gangabai Bhutt. This was because Mateshwari was distressed that Gangabai had brought a patient of tuberculosis to Shri Nathji’s flat, and she was afraid lest the disease be communicated to Shri Nathji or the children. Mrs. Bhutt had this penchant for making unpredictable choices. Albeit, she went away rejuvenated, spiritually and physically, after several days stay with Shri Nathji and Mateshwari.
When Gangabai Bhutt had told Shri Nathji’s neighbour at Bombay that Shri Nathji was none other than Lord Vishnu in human form performing his leela upon earth, the man was filled with great awe, and even fear. He was afraid of using the familiar tone with which he had been addressing Shri Nathji.
Shri Nathji had never wanted Gangabai Bhutt to declare her beliefs too openly. Shri Nathji on his part never called himself God, and allowed that feeling to develop within people on their own. Shri Nathji enjoyed the anonymity and roamed in his world freely.
Shri Nathji would say:
“Kissee ko too much kaihne se vo samajh hee naheen paataa! If you say too much to a person he fails to understand you.”
