"My center is the heart of every lover. 
Every lover with a heart that loves Baba is a center."

Meher Baba 
At Meher Center, 1956

Dear Meher Center Friends & Family,
 
A loving Jai Baba and Happy Easter from Meher Center. While we won’t be celebrating together this year at sunrise in Baba’s compound, we can still remember joyfully that the Avatar is alive and well in our hearts. 

One Easter Sunday in 1933, Baba visited a Christian chapel with a group of His lovers. He said, "All worship returns to me. The sigh within the prayer is the same in the heart of the Christian, the Mohammedan, or the Jew. They are all indivisibly longing for the same God."*

In Baba’s love and service,

"The Master is never absent"
Khodadad Namiranian first heard about Meher Baba when his parents chose to send his twin brothers to India, to attend the Prem Ashram school started by Meher Baba. Here, he narrates the story of when he called out to Baba to rescue him in danger to test His Godhood, his first meeting with Baba at the East-West Gathering, and being a Baba lover in Iran. Translated by his son Farshid, this is a rare account of deep longing for God.

"He's willing to accept each of us"
Bal Natu was a dear disciple of Meher Baba starting in 1943. Baba gave him permission to visit at any time, so Bal spent time with Him at Meherazad and Guruprasad whenever he had time off from his job as a schoolteacher. In this recording, Bal tells stories to a group of young Baba-lovers in Mandali Hall. From tales about the history of the hall itself, to his own humorous and loving moments with the Master, Bal’s tales are full of what he calls “Vitamin M.”
