His whole life‐story is by itself a story of the highest form of spiritual love. Just as a lover or a beloved offers his or her all at the altar of love, so did Baba, in the very first moments of his entry into the house of divine love. The aspect of noble love we find in the lovelorn songs of Mira, madly in love with her imaginary beloved in utter disregard of all social conventions, is abundantly manifested in the life‐story of Baba who raised above all public criticism and denunciations.

What is remarkable and unique about his love is that he not only spiritualised it in all its worldly forms and relationships but also concentrated it on the Incorporeal Supreme Soul, ‘Shiv’ who is a non‐physical, eternal entity. It became thus the highest and purest form of love which knew neither any words of elation nor the pangs of separation, but was, on the contrary, at once calm, sweet, serene and an ever present source of divine support, inspiration and approbation.
