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
All illusion comes and goes, but the soul remains unchanged.
Meher Baba
Image
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
Image
God alone is real, and all else is illusion.
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.

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!

Meher Baba
Image
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.
Meher Baba
Image
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
Image
God cannot be explained... God can only be lived.
Meher Baba
Image
It's a divine art to be cheerful.
Meher Baba
Image
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
Image
Love delights and glorifies in giving, not receiving.
Meher Baba
Image
You must make bold experiments in life!
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
Love can attain what the intellect cannot fathom.
Meher Baba
Image
God and love are identical, and one who has divine love has received God.
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.
