Baba shared the following quote with the visitors attending the 1952 "Open Day" to which over 1,500 had been invited. To avoid visitors asking too many questions they were handed before entering the Barn a two-page mimeograph copy entitled "Baba explains". One of the quotes said, "God is not to be learnt, or discussed or studied or argued about, God is to be contemplated, felt, loved and lived." *



In Baba’s love and service,



Buz Connor,

For Meher Center board and staff

Does Baba want us to meditate?

A Presentation by Richard Blum

In part one of this engaging presentation, Richard Blum dives into the loaded question of whether Meher Baba wants His followers to meditate. Richard gives personal examples, observations and quotes from the Mandali and Baba's direct words on the subject. Stay tuned for part two, where Richard will explore the different types of meditations as laid out by Baba.

"I had experienced weightlessness"

In part two of this audio, Anne Forbes talks about the effect of Baba's presence. For three days after meeting Baba in 1956, she felt immense joy, love, weightlessness and generosity. She was later called to move to Florida where she was very active in the Baba group.

Correction: In last week's Offering, we used a picture of Anne Forbes which was not her. We have made the correction in this offering and on our website.
