Later Baba made these pronouncements about the salient qualities of the men mandali accompanying him:

 

 

Gustadji belongs to the seventh plane!

 

 

Vishnu is inspired, spiritualistic; but impulsive and prone to occasional outbursts of anger.

 

 

Chhagan looks as if he is always in samadhi, like a yogi; but his cheeks swell in no time [he gets angry and excited easily]!

 

 

Raosaheb is our general manager, handling everyone with firmness.

 

 

Jalbhai is a musician; Sidhu is a singer; Chanji is one who pick up and continues on the notes of the singer — a drum-beater. Buasaheb, Karim and Masaji are the audience.
