Meher Baba Association - UK - Celebrating the life, work and teachings of Meher Baba, Avatar of the Age

The book I shall make people read is the book of the heart, which holds the key to the mystery of life.

My work will embrace everything. It will permeate every phase of life.

Materialism and spirituality must go hand in hand.

Meher Baba

BIOGRAPHY

Avatar Meher Baba was born in Poona, India in 1894.

His mission as Avatar, the Hindu word for Godman, started in 1921 and developed as a practical example of his principle message of love.

He worked with disciples in India, Europe, America and the poor of India, through free schools, dispensaries and shelters.

His life was devoted not to teaching but to awakening humanity to the unifying message of love and the Truth given by great messengers of the past.

His belief that all had been said was given emphasis by his observing silence for 44 years, from 1925 until his death in 1969.

BABA'S FLAG

... Baba remarked, "Do you know why I suggested a seven coloured flag? The seven colours represent the seven planes of consciousness ... these colours also represent sanskaras – impressions. The colours in the flag signify man's rise from the grossest of impressions of lust and anger – symbolized by red – to the culmination in the highest state of spirituality and oneness with God – symbolized by sky blue."

Lord Meher, Vol 2, Page 618

If we understand and feel that the greatest act of devotion and worship to God is not to hurt or harm any of His beings, we are loving God.

BABA ART ON THE WEB
Reviewed by Sarah McNeill

Writing about paintings is a pretty stupid thing to try and do so "Thank you Baba for the Internet", with its growing cluster of stars one can now visit in that firmament. I suppose my first venture into that space was when I bought a poster of Baba sitting in a chair laughing. more...
