Dear Meher Center Family and Friends,
A hearty Jai Baba from the Center!
In his book, Glimpse of the God-Man, Bal Natu shares a beautiful message that is very inspiring but also shows Baba's ways of combining profound discourses and revelations in the midst of mundane life.
Bal writes, "The second day of the darshan at Madras was, and still is, precious to me. It was breakfast time on Friday, April 4, and the mandali were going down the stairs. I saw Baba standing in the doorway, looking at us lovingly as we passed by. When I was about to start down, Adi Sr. called me. I entered Baba's room and found Him sitting in a chair. Without any introduction He gestured: 'You will have liberation (Mukti).'
"This spontaneous assurance lifted me to a new dimension. A feeling of timelessness crept over me, perhaps for a few seconds. I was brought to my senses when Adi Sr. continued to convey Baba's 'say':
"'But let your love flow on ceaselessly, like a stream down the mountain on its way to the Ocean. Obstructions there will be, of pleasures, of pains. Pass by these as passing phases. There will be flowers and thorns by the bank and in the flow. Do not get attached; do not get affected. Go on and on and let the stream become a river. Doubts may assail you, self- complacency may lure you, but with love in the heart, roll on, flow on to me — the Ocean. Worry not, fear not. I am the Ocean of Love. Now go and have tea.'
"The instruction about tea made me aware of the room I was in. It is difficult to say what I felt at that moment. It is something beyond me and I cannot put it in black and white. The words, if expressed, might turn into barriers. It is too sacred to talk about. Perhaps everyone who came into Meher Baba's contact had such sublime moments. I wonder whether I had tea or nectar that day!" *
In His love and service,
Buz Connor
