I love artists, because through art one can express oneself beautifully.
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!

Love is nothing if it is not spontaneous. It cannot be a conclusion of reasoning.
Meher Baba
Image
The objective of spiritual advancement is not so much 'works' but the quality of life free from ego-consciousness.
Meher Baba
Image
Suffering is essential for the elimination of the ego, just as it was necessary for you to scrub and scrub in order to wash the stain from my coat.

Let not the dirt of the sanskaras of your thoughts and deeds touch you, by surrendering every thought and act at the feet of your Guru. As a laundryman washes and cleans clothes, in the same way, I remove all the dirt which has stuck to you through your thoughts and actions.
Meher Baba
Image
Though the eye is small, the soul which sees through it is greater and vaster than all the things which it perceives. In fact, it is so great that it includes all objects, however large or numerous, within itself. For it is not so much that you are within the cosmos as that the cosmos is within you.
Meher Baba

There is no such thing as evil. Only relative degrees of good.
Meher Baba

Life becomes meaningful and all activities are purposeful only on the basis of faith in the enduring reality.
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.

Don't Worry Be Happy
Meher Baba

God alone is real, nothing matters but love for God.
Meher Baba

Desire nothing except desirelessness. Hope for nothing except to rise above all hopes. Want nothing and you will have everything.
Meher Baba
Image
It's a divine art to be cheerful.
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
In the world, there are countless Sadhus, Mahatmas, Mahapurushas, Saints, Yogis, and Walis, though the number of genuine ones is very, very limited. I am neither a Mahatma nor a Mahapurush, neither a Sadhu nor a Saint, neither a Yogi nor a Wali. I am the ancient One. The Highest of the High!

When love is not at its height, it always creates a mess.

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