Image
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
God cannot be explained... God can only be lived.
Meher Baba
Image
Pure love is matchless in majesty it has no parallel in power and there is no darkness it cannot dispel.
Meher Baba
Image
When love is not at its height, it always creates a mess.
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
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
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
Image
Love can attain what the intellect cannot fathom.
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
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
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
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
Art when inspired with love leads to higher realms, and that art will open for you the inner life.
Meher Baba
Image
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
Image
The experiences which drugs induce are as far removed from Reality as is a mirage, from water. No matter how much you pursue the mirage, you will never quench your thirst, and the search for Truth through drugs must end in disillusionment.
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
Image
I have come not to teach but to awaken.
Meher Baba
Image
God has to be temporarily cruel in order to be permanently kind.
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.

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