"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 from Meher Baba’s home in the West. 

I want to remind you of the virtual community-wide gathering, hosted by Meher Center’s board of directors, where we will talk about the issues, plans and concerns surrounding the reopening of Meher Center. The meeting is scheduled for Saturday, October 3 from 2 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. EDT.
 
Please submit your questions before September 21 to: https://forms.gle/X3YrbeydbUq9witt8
 
I came across this quote recently given by Baba in 1960. It seems so appropriate to the challenges of these times. 

“When one remains fully and completely resigned to the Divine Will of God, all service, sacrifice, solitude, seeking and surrenderance, merely symbolize one’s love for God.”*

In Baba’s love and service,


Buz Connor
For Meher Center board and staff

"I felt weak with Love"
Virginia Rudd was an English teacher in New York and her husband Harold was a professional actor. They came to Baba in 1952. Virginia had been cynical of gurus and was skeptical of Baba before meeting him. In this entertaining video she recalls driving down to Myrtle Beach to see Baba and entering a trance-like state for hours. She felt a sense of delirious happiness. She goes on to share her life of love with the Beloved.

"He is in our lives and with us"
Rick Chapman met Meher Baba in 1965, and was one of three Western followers tasked by Baba to spread His message against drugs throughout the United States. For the 1995 Youth Sahavas, Rick was asked to give a presentation about Meher Baba in the 1960’s. This video of the presentation contains a description of a powerful phase of Baba’s life and work, and includes Rick’s own journey of learning about and loving Baba, then finally getting to meet Him.
