For Amir Shakkar's rheumatism, Baba's medicine was not a physical remedy but simply His word. As described in Chapter 22, despite the damp, windy, and cold conditions of the Chavadi that would normally worsen rheumatism, Baba gave firm instructions to Amir. He told him not to weigh the wind, rain, or dampness, nor whether the place was high, low, or deep. Amir was to accept his circumstances without complaint. The text highlights that Amir accepted Baba's word as the 'Great Prasad' and medicine, staying there with internal faith even though all external conditions were contrary to his physical well-being.
