The author in Chapter 43 draws a direct parallel between Baba's promise to return and an event from the life of Krishna. The devotees recalled that Baba had stated, "As an eight-year-old child, I will appear again." To reinforce the credibility of this saintly promise, the text compares it to the Krishna avatar. It mentions how the "Wielder of the Discus" appeared in the prison before Devaki with the "beautiful complexion of eight years, with four arms and weapons in hand." The text notes that while the reason for Krishna's appearance was to remove the earth's burden, the reason for Baba's return is the salvation of his poor devotees, suggesting there should be no doubt about his promise.
