Srimadji replied in this matter telling "We don't have the need to go over there." And with presence of mind he rejected their insistence. Expressed this much only.
They realised that who will further educate the person who has such a possession of knowledge that to whom we had neither dropped a letter, nor had any acquaintance, even though he has such a knowledge of addressing us by our names and make these all prior preparations Who will provide further knowledge to him? Which other teacher is required by him? Still however there exists this notion of the tradition that if there is scriptural knowledge, it becomes easy to teach and explain.
Ultimately, to understand the genius of his knowledge, they showed him one Scripture titled "SANGHAPATTAK", which is written by Shri JINVALLABHASOORIJI MAHARAJ, the Master of Shri JINDUTTASOORIJI MAHARAJ, who existed before eight hundred fifty years. It is a greatly original scripture possessing very complicated Sanskrit language. One verse out of it was selected and one letter of it was uttered before Srimadji in scattered way (in "LOM-VILOM" form) and he was told to join it. Immediately he joined the same and uttered exactly. He made them to listen only by listening and then joining inside......!

"No sir! The purpose with which we had come was not served." Both of them replied.
"For what reason?" again the enquisitive Judge asked.
"We had come with this purpose, which he has rejected. Extremely desireless detached person he is....!" they said.

The two visitors reaffirmed that we have sufficiently tested his knowledge and found that there is no possessor of knowledge more than him in India. He is incarnation of Saraswati itself. What else was to be taught to him? We have understood this and hence therefore we also do not insist any more.
Shri Dharshibhai heard all this incidence from the mouths of these visitors and became more and more influenced by Srimadji. Earlier, he was making Srimadji sit at par with him, but now . onwards he started sitting before him as disciple and went on respecting him with VINAYA.
There are several of such incidences of Unusual Knowledge of Srimadjis life from his childhood and young age. This is the glory of his knowledge. The person is the same, but there is no value
