When you paint, you forget everything except your object. When you are too much engrossed in it, you are lost in it. And when you are lost in it, your ego diminishes. And when the ego diminishes, love infinite appears.

More quotes by Meher Baba
Love is the reflection of God's unity in the world of duality. It constitutes the entire significance of creation.
Meher Baba
Love can attain what the intellect cannot fathom.
Meher Baba
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
Only in the human form is it possible for life to attain its final goal, which is to realize the all-pervading and infinite Divinity.
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
Love delights and glorifies in giving, not receiving.
Meher Baba
I am the Avatar of this Age!
Meher Baba
I have come not to teach but to awaken.
Meher Baba
All illusion comes and goes, but the soul remains unchanged.
Meher Baba
The easiest and shortest way to God-realization is through the contact of a Sadguru, which means keeping the company or sahavas of such a Master, obeying him and serving him. This remedy is like a special express train which carries you straight to your destination.
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
Life becomes meaningful and all activities are purposeful only on the basis of faith in the enduring reality.
Meher Baba
Since male and female incarnations are equally necessary for self-knowledge, it is not right to look upon one as being more important than the other.
Meher Baba
God has to be temporarily cruel in order to be permanently kind.
Meher Baba
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
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
It's a divine art to be cheerful.
Meher Baba
But such a tiny and trivial thing as an umbrella can deprive you of the sight of such a stupendous fact as the sun.
Meher Baba
To ask for a purely intellectual proof of the existence of God is like asking for the privilege of being able to see with your ears!
Meher Baba
God has been everlastingly working in Silence, unobserved, unheard, except by those who experience His Infinite Silence. Those who have got the courage and wisdom to surrender themselves to a Perfect Master are the recipients of His Grace.
