If we understand and feel that the greatest act of devotion and worship to God is not to harm any of His beings, we are loving God.
Meher Baba
Image
Nothing is the shadow of Everything.
Meher Baba
Image
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
Image
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.

Image
Love delights and glorifies in giving, not receiving.
Meher Baba
Image
Forgiveness is the best charity. (It is easy to give the poor money and goods when one has plenty, but to forgive is hard but it is the best thing if one can do it.)
Meher Baba
Image
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 seeker asking, Where is God? Is really God saying, Where indeed is the seeker!
Meher Baba
Image
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
Image
Things that are real are given and received in silence.
Meher Baba
Image
Love is the reflection of God's unity in the world of duality. It constitutes the entire significance of creation.
Meher Baba
Image
One has to go beyond the mind to experience the spiritual bliss of desirelessness.
Meher Baba
Image
Life becomes meaningful and all activities are purposeful only on the basis of faith in the enduring reality.
Meher Baba
Image
I have come not to teach but to awaken.
Meher Baba
Image
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
Image
Love is nothing if it is not spontaneous. It cannot be a conclusion of reasoning.
Meher Baba
Image
The satisfaction derived from the fleeting things of life is not lasting and our wants remain unfulfilled. There is thus a general sense of dissatisfaction accompanied by all kinds of worries.
Meher Baba
Image
God has to be temporarily cruel in order to be permanently kind.
Meher Baba
Image
God and love are identical, and one who has divine love has received God.
Meher Baba
Image
Feelings and emotions are only the creation of mind and energy. Love is the creation of the soul.
Meher Baba
