• Once, Bankatlala with friends went to eat maize-corns in his farm. He took Maharaj with him. To rost the corns fire was made. The wild bees on the honey combs which were on the trees, got disturbed. They attached all those who were there.
  • All ran for safety, except Gajanan Maharaj. The bees covered him completely.
  • Seeing that Bankatlala who also had run away dared to come back. Mean-while the bees returned to their combs. Bankatlala, on seeing the condition of Maharaj, begged to be excused and requested to allow him to call gold-smiths for picking the stings from the body. Maharaj smiled, forgave him and did the Kumbhak Yoga and all the people saw that the stings popped out all over the body. All the present bowed and acknowledged that Maharaj was a Siddha Yoga.
  • Maharaj went to Akot to see Narsing Maharaj. They both chatted and discussed Karma - Bhakti - Yoga.
  • Maharaj blessed Braj Bhushan of Shivar (Tah - Daryapur ) who was a great devotee of the Sun God.
  • Gajanan Maharaj decided to stay at Hanuman Mandir instead of Bankatlala's house.
