More quotes by Meher Baba
People wait for the big moment, the great event, and forget that happiness comes from building steadily on the small daily things of life. People wait for that special moment to express love and forget that love springs from thoughtfulness practised every day. People wait, but waiting is future and NOW is always the time.
Meher Baba
If I were to ask the famous Henry Ford to come over here and do what I tell him to do, would he do it? Never! But if I were to make a thousand-year-old corpse come alive before his eyes, he would jump at the chance to stay here and wash my clothes!
Meher Baba
The book that I shall make people read is the book of the heart, which holds the key to the mystery of life
Meher Baba
The life of the spirit is the expression of Infinity and, as such, knows no artificial limits. True spirituality is not to be mistaken for an exclusive enthusiasm for some fad. It is not concerned with any ism. When people seek spirituality apart from life, as if it had nothing to do with the material world, their search is futile.
Meher Baba
Illusion throughout is illusion. There is no end to it, just as there is no end to imagination.
Meher Baba
Worry has never done anyone any good, and it is very much worse than mere dissipation of psychic energy, for it substantially curtails the joy and fullness of life.
Meher Baba
Those who speculate from the shore about the ocean shall know only its surface, but those who would know the depths of the ocean must be willing to plunge into it.
Meher Baba
I have come not to teach but to awaken.
Meher Baba

Meher Baba
God alone is real, nothing matters but love for God.
Meher Baba
I love everybody. Each one plays the role they have to play, but in the spiritual arena there are people who are even closer to me than that.
Meher Baba
Seek a reality deeper than the changing forms.
Meher Baba
God and love are identical, and one who has divine love has received God.
Meher Baba
...the more a person becomes spiritually minded or advances towards God, the more tolerant he becomes and the less differentiation he sees.
Meher Baba
God cannot be explained... God can only be lived.
Meher Baba
Life becomes meaningful and all activities are purposeful only on the basis of faith in the enduring reality.
Meher Baba
Love is nothing if it is not spontaneous. It cannot be a conclusion of reasoning.
Meher Baba
One has to go beyond the mind to experience the spiritual bliss of desirelessness.
Meher Baba
There is no greater romance in life than this adventure in realization.
Meher Baba
All illusion comes and goes, but the soul remains unchanged. What is meant by God-realization is to actually experience this important thing that the soul is eternal.
