In an event that further solidified Laxmichand's belief in Baba's omniscience, Chapter 28 recounts an incident during the Chavadi procession. While watching the celebration, Laxmichand observed that Sai Baba had developed a cough. A thought arose in Laxmichand's mind that the cough might be the result of an 'evil eye' cast upon Baba by someone in the crowd. This was purely a private, mental speculation. However, when Laxmichand went to the masjid the following morning, he was astonished to hear Baba speak about his cough using similar reasoning. This direct reflection of his private thought by Baba served as another powerful confirmation of Maharaj's 'antarjnan,' or inner knowledge.
