"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 and Family,

As we in the United States are beginning to see the light at the end of this persistent pandemic tunnel, our hearts go out to our sisters and brothers in India and in other places around the world who are experiencing the devastating effects of this threatening and sometimes deadly virus.  

As Baba is orchestrating the course and consequence of this formidable challenge, we rely on His grace to guide and comfort us as the contagion continues to unfold throughout the world.

Someone recently shared with me this powerful quote of Baba’s:

Existence is God; whereas Life is illusion.
Existence is Reality; whereas Life is imagination. 
Existence is Everlasting; whereas Life is ephemeral. 
Existence is Unchangeable; whereas Life is everchanging.
Existence is Freedom; whereas Life is a binding. 
Existence is Indivisible; whereas Life is multiple. 
Existence is Imperceptible; whereas Life is deceptive. 
Existence is Independent; whereas Life is dependent on mind, energy and gross forms.
Existence is; whereas Life appears to be.
Existence, therefore, is not Life.*

In Baba’s love and service,

"He was my destiny"
Following Havovi Dadachanji's sharing from last week, Hoshang Dadachanji narrates his part of the story of his family's coming to Baba. Starting from his uncle Chanji's story, followed by his own first meeting with Shri Meher Baba, Hoshang spent glorious years of intimate contact with Baba at Guruprasad where he played games with Baba, sang for Him and was part of the Master's orbit. Baba took personal interest in his business and family life but through all of it, He always reminded them to never forget that Baba was God in Human Form.
