On Bhadarva sud 1, after the evening ārti, a discussion on the names of sadhus took place. There are two-four-five sadhus with identical names even among the seniors. Swami himself would say the name and others would ask. In this the name of Gunatitanand came only once. During the spiritual discourse when sadhus with the same names were recalled, someone asked, “Was there anybody else with your name?” Then Swami said, “No, there was only one (myself), but for the other names there were many sadhus and sannyāsis (with the same name).” Then someone asked about keeping company (of enlightened souls). For this, (Swami) talked about keeping the company of Jaga Bhakta and also mentioned other names.
