Dear Meher Center Family and Friends,
Greetings from Baba's home in the West. Spring has arrived at the Center; Azalea buds are starting to bloom and the lake is sparkling in renewed sunlight. The Center is quite full and busy at the moment, as it usually is in the spring months.
This weekend we are hosting an annual gathering for our dedicated Evening and Overnight volunteers. The weekend after, we will be hosting the Spring Cleaning Sahavas from March 14th to 17th. For more information, click here.
Meher Baba said, "Selfless service and love are twin divine qualities. Only the one who loves can serve. Serve your Beloved God-Man and you are serving your own self in every other self.
"The service He extracts is for your own spiritual benefit; but this service must be spontaneous, willing, wholehearted, unconditional and not expecting any reward. This service is an ordeal that tries body, mind and spirit; or else wherein would the perfection of serving if it were to be easy and at one's convenience?
"The body suffers, mind is tormented, but the spirit of the selfless server of the Master experiences the bliss of satisfaction." *
In Baba’s Love and service,
Buz Connor,
For Meher Center board and staff
