But Tatya never bothered about his health. The tuberculosis from which Tatya was suffering advanced and everyone thought that he would not survive. By the end of September Tatya was bedridden. The month of August was gone and September came.
Poor Tatya did not know about his impending death! Though he was suffering form ill health, he was cheerful. Knowing that Tatya’s death was coming closer, Patil satisfied the tastes of Tatya. Ramachander Patil was very much worried about this and was always looking after him. Tatya’s health deteriorated from the end of July. Unfaithfulness to one’s Guru is the same as unfaithfulness to God, since Guru is God. By doing such things, they should know that they are making the Guru suffer. Sometimes they may do something out of love for their Guru, even though the Guru tells them not do it. Disciples should not go against the wishes of their Guru, even in small matters. In the previous chapter we learnt how Baba suffered on account of the selfishness of some devotees, without his close devotees also not knowing about this.
