Late the next afternoon, at the time of go-dhūli (when the air is thick with dust-clouds raised by the cows returning to the go-śālā), Vrajanātha arrived at Śrīvāsa-aṅgana. He sat on the raised platform under the dense foliage of the bakula tree, and waited for the elderly Bābājī Mahārāja. Bābājī was waiting in his bhajana-kuṭīra, and for some unknown reason, vātsalya-bhāva had arisen in his heart towards Vrajanātha. As soon as a slight sound outside indicated Vrajanātha’s arrival, Bābājī came out and, lovingly embracing him, took him into his kuṭīra, which was situated at one side of the courtyard in an arbour of kuṇḍa flowers. There he offered him a seat and sat beside him.
