" Nothing can impede or halt the work of this Avatar. When I was
upstairs all these days, some people foolishly went about saying. "It is all
over with SaiBaba" and they turned back many who were coming to Puttaparthi!
Some said I was in Samadhi, as if I am a Saadhaka! Some feared I was the victim
of black magic, as if anythingcan affect Me! The splendour of this Avatar will
go increasing, day by day.
- From Bhagawan's 1963 Guru Poornima Divine Discourse.
