"It is a matter of great pleasure. They are most welcome." Dharshibhai responded
"They may be provided accommodation and food also" requested Srimadji.
"Everything will be done" Dharashibhai reaffirmed.
And then Srimadji went to receive them. You must have probably seen the City of Rajkot. There are host of streets ever there. It was not sure that from which way side they will be coming. Even though Srimadji was proceeding in the same road direction from where they will arrive. Then after going at a far distance, he saw that they were coming by riding on the camel. Hemrajbhai was also intelligent and sensed in his imagination that probably the boy who was coming from the front should be the person to whom we are coming to meet. They imagined so. And then when they proceeded little further, Srimadji called, "Welcome Hemrajbhai, Welcome Malsibhai, have you reached with joy? How do you do?"
And listening to this, both of them were tremendously surprised. They thought: "Never there was any prior meeting, nor any correspondence previously and also no information was sent of their coming now, then how he could know about?" They descended down from the camel back, met with great affection hugging Srimadji and asked him surprisingly:
"How could you know our names and that we are coming from this road and at this time?" Srimadji replied, "Infinite powers are possessed by the Soul, from which we know"
Only this much he said.
And then he led them and accommodated there as it was pre-arranged. Both of them found that there were all arrangements including that of meals. After dining they got relaxed and Hemrajbhai requested to Shri Dharashibhai that, "We intend to talk to Shri Raychandbhai confidentially in loneliness. Whether there will be such a facility in any room?"
"It's ready. Please come." Shri Dharshibhai replied and took them to a private room.
Sitting in solitude, they kept their proposal before Srimadji that "We are very much influenced by your intellectual geneous and also by your knowledge. We wish that a Jewel may be prepared for the Welfare of the World. We find that light in you. We intend to take you to Benaras-Kashi Benaras the abode of learnings for further studies. In short duration of time only you will be expert in all languages and knowledge and will uplift all of us. We have come with a purpose to take you to Kashi Benaras to educate further. There we shall make all sorts of arrangements for you. Therefore, if you will come with us, we shall be highly obliged."
