More quotes by Meher Baba
Love and forgiveness is not for the faint-hearted.
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 love is not at its height, it always creates a mess.
Meher Baba
Love God and find him within - the only treasure worth finding.
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
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
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.
Meher Baba
All illusion comes and goes, but the soul remains unchanged.
Meher Baba
Desire nothing except desirelessness. Hope for nothing except to rise above all hopes. Want nothing and you will have everything.
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
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
If God can be found through the medium of any drug, God is not worthy of being God.
Meher Baba
Illusion throughout is illusion. There is no end to it, just as there is no end to imagination.
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
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
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
The entire life of the personal ego is continually in the grip of wanting, i. e., an attempt to seek fulfilment of desires through things that change and vanish. But there can be no real fulfilment through the transient things
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
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
