Whenever groups of saints left on tours according to the instructions of Swami, they were given a word of advice by Swami : "Now that we have dressed ourselves like sadhus, we must play our role properly. We should not put our role to shame. Behave according to the traditions laid down in the satsang by Maharaj. Insist on sessions of holy discourses wherever you go. Moreover, behave in such a way that all the devotees feel pleased with your actions. Don't think that we are going there to preach to them. We should also accept lessons from devotees who have total devotion to Maharaj and observe all His rules without any default. At present such devotees are Rayo Desai of Kamigadh, Karsan Bambhaniya of Hamapar, Ram Bhanderi of Chadiya and Velo Sathwaro of Bagasara. All of them are true satsangis. Try to have their darshan and enjoy their company." Such sound advice, for the smooth communion between tyagi and grihi, was given by Swami. Swami had turned ordinary and retarded seekers into such great devotees that even tyagis craved for their darshan. Brahmagnan, which is described in the scriptures as difficult to attain, was made easily accessible by Swami. Swami used to say that he had taught Brahmavidya to two hundred persons.
The following anecdote reveals the secret of this. One day one of the devotees asked Swami, "Swami, the saints of Junagadh work very hard to render service to the temple and to spread the satsang in the villages. At other places sadhus lack such enthusiasm and zeal." Replying to this Swami said, "In every mission the guru has to take a lead; then only the disciples follow him. But if the guru (mentor) remains behind and orders his disciples, they will never work with a sense of commitment. Whenever there is a battle the drums convey, 'The leader should die, the leader should die' which means the General of the King must take a lead and the rest of the army would follow him. Similarly, if the guru dedicates himself to the cause of service then only the disciple would be inspired to render service." These words clearly reveal how much the guru has to exert in order to inspire his disciples. Swami used to say : "If the guru committed himself fully then the disciples would follow suit to some extent."
After the puja ceremony was over, Swami used to offer pranams to all the saints at their respective seats. After that he would begin the session of holy discourses. Only after this session was over would he assign duties to all the saints; so that their minds did not remain preoccupied with the assigned duty during the discourses. Swami himself also joined in these assignments. After the sessions were over he always used to go to the ailing saints and their attendants, in order to enquire about their health. He would massage somebody's feet, or attend to the various types of body aches of the ailing and the sick. To some he would give consolation by talking in a gentle manner. In this way, Swami himself served the ailing saints. Swami developed this huge temple by his personal efforts. In this way Swami's ideal life was an example for devotees who followed him, and who progressed as a result of that.
