More quotes by Meher Baba
One of the most difficult things to learn is to render service without bossing, without making a fuss about it, and without any consciousness of high and low. In the world of spirituality, humility counts at least as much as utility.
Meher Baba
There is no difference in the realization of the Truth either by a Muslim, Hindu, Zoroastrian, or a Christian. The difference is only in words and terms. Truth is not the monopoly of a particular race or religion.
Meher Baba
When nothing upsets you, you are at the beginning of the path. When you desire nothing, you are halfway on the path when nothing becomes everything, you are perfected.
Meher Baba
The objective of spiritual advancement is not so much 'works' but the quality of life free from ego-consciousness.
Meher Baba
When the bubble of ignorance bursts the self realizes its oneness with the indivisible Self. Words that proceed from the Source of Truth have real meaning. But when men speakthese words as their own, the words become meaningless.
Meher Baba
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
...the more a person becomes spiritually minded or advances towards God, the more tolerant he becomes and the less differentiation he sees.
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
One has to go beyond the mind to experience the spiritual bliss of desirelessness.
Meher Baba
Things that are real are given and received in silence.
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
You must make bold experiments in life!
Meher Baba
I have come not to teach but to awaken.
Meher Baba
God and love are identical, and one who has divine love has received God.
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
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
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
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.
Meher Baba
Seek a reality deeper than the changing forms.
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.
Meher Baba
