"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,
 
As we approach Amartithi, the anniversary of Meher Baba’s dropping His body, we want to let you know that Meher Center will commemorate this sacred day with a two-part virtual program.

The first part of the virtual Amartithi program will take place on the morning of January 31, beginning at 10:30 a.m. ET with prayers and arti, and culminating with fifteen minutes of silence at 12 noon. After the silence, there will be a chance to connect with one another (though unfortunately we will not be serving dal this year). 

The second part will take place at 8 p.m. ET with a talk by Rick Chapman describing the interment that took place on January 31, 1969, on Meherabad Hill.
 
A more detailed announcement, including the morning and evening links, will go out later this weekend.

In Baba’s love and service,

"Prepare yourself to receive His love"
Adi K. Irani became a close disciple of Meher Baba in the early 1920’s and served as His secretary for many years. In this talk, introduced by Elizabeth Patterson, he begins by reciting and translating a prayer. He then speaks on a myriad of subjects related to spirituality in our everyday lives, including facing problems and attachments, and ultimately attaching ourselves only to Baba.

"He was a living bolt of lightning"
Pratap Ahir first heard about Meher Baba in the 1940's. He was part of a group of young people that later became the Poona Bhajan Mandali which sang and composed music for Baba. Here, he tells his story of coming to Baba, intimate mentorship that Dr. Ghani offered him, being invited by Baba to stay with Him during the New Life and life lessons he got from Baba.
