WHAT CAN I SAY ABOUT CHILDREN?

Mani S. Irani

 
If Baba hadn't loved children so much, He wouldn't have loved us so much! Wherever Baba was and where there were any children, they somehow always came to Him.

I remember in 1952 on the plane to the U.S. — of course, nobody knew who Baba was — the children would walk down the aisle and constantly stop where Baba was sitting and caress His coat or look up at him. And their mothers would be after them, "Don't disturb that gentleman!" Then Baba would smile, the mothers would relax and forget to scold...

I think they wanted to come and caress Baba too!"
