The Brahmin could tell the future of a person by reading lines on the feet and hands. He chanced to see the feet of Baba Amadas, which were embedded with Padam Rekha - luckiest line on the feet - which denotes that such persons are supreme. Padam Rekha is embedded either on the feet of the Prophets, divine persons or the very renowned kings."
