Virakut accompanied by another Saint was sent to Hoti by Pandit Ishar Singh Ji
Maharaj to make the request on their behalf.
On reaching Hoti they both humbly paid their respects in Baba Ji’s presence and then
with folded hands they requested that all the Saints and Scholars requested for Baba
Ji’s beautiful presents at Haridwar. Baba Ji smiled and loving stated that he would
give the answer to their wish tomorrow. Meanwhile Baba Ji made arrangements for
the two Saints to stay a night, placing disciples on the duty to serve them. In the
evening Baba Ji went and sat with the students disciples and the Saints of Hoti and
discussed with them the invitation from the Nirmale Saints at Haridwar, asking
whether they should attend or not? The Hoti disciples were overjoyed and replied that
they should accept as this would be an opportunity for them to also go along and see
the site of Haridwar and this great gathering of spiritual souls. Accepting everyone’s
wish, the next morning Baba Ji called for the two Nirmala Saints and informed them
of their decision to accept their invitation. The two Saints were very pleased and
before taking leave, were given gifts and money for their return journey by Baba Ji.
Meanwhile Baba Ji and the disciples of Hoti prepared for their journey to Haridwar,
but as the devotees of the area came to know of this, many of them also made their
own preparations to go along too. On the day Baba Ji was to leave they found
themselves accompanied by a large amount of devotees. Whereever the train stopped
large numbers of devotees would gather for Baba Ji’s sweet vision, and giving gifts
and money and many more began to join them on their journey to Haridwar. By the
time they reached Haridwar they found themselves surround by hundreds of devotees.
