These are readings of a collection of letters written by Mani, Meher Baba’s sister, to the Western family of Baba lovers between 1956 and 1969.
"Words cannot describe His embrace"
In this video, Mr. and Mrs. B. D. Gupta share their long contact with Meher Baba. Mrs. Gupta's father HarJivan Lal came to Baba in 1945. When her mother first saw Baba, she recognized Him from a dream she had of Him in 1938. They instantly knew that He was the Creator. The family had extended contact with the Master through the New Life, attended sahavases in the 1950s and were at the East-West Gathering in 1962. They talk about hosting gatherings for Baba in Delhi where they were instrumental in acquiring land and starting a Center for Baba which still stands.

"He more than filled me up"
In the second part of this talk, Leatrice Johnson continues to speak about her times with Baba in 1956 and 1958. She describes many moments with Him: at the Barn, at the beach, in His house, and at the apartment of one of His lovers. Some of these moments portray Baba’s immense suffering. Each memory shines with His transformative love.
