On Sunday, 25 July 1926, Guru Purnima, the full moon day, was observed. Baba admonished the mandali:
“Like innocent children, lay your head on the feet of your Master and take an oath that none of you will leave me until I break my silence.” (www.lordmeher.org, p694; Jul, 1926; Meherabad)
On Guru Purnima (the full moon day), Baba had the mandali pray collectively to God to help them hold on to Baba to the end. (www.lordmeher.org, p4562; Jul, 1959; Guruprasad)
