Dear Meher Center Family and Friends,
A loving Jai Baba to all.
May is a momentous month in the life of Mehera J. Irani, Meher Baba’s closest woman disciple. It was on May 19, 1924 that she and her mother came to Meherabad to join His ashram. And, on May 20, 1989, she left her physical body behind at Meherazad, India, to be united with her Beloved eternally.
“Over the years, many times Baba referred to Mehera as ‘the purest soul in the universe’ and the one who loved him most. As Baba said, Mehera's unique position in his circle is the same as Sita's was to Lord Ram, as Radha's was to Krishna, or as Mary Magdalene's was to Jesus.”*
When my wife Wendy and I were in India in 1990, Mani, Baba’s sister, told the story of the first thing Baba asked of Mehera when she arrived at Meherabad in 1924 at the age of 17. He gave her the following lines, written by the poet and Perfect Master Kabir, to memorize. Mehera later taught the lines to Mani. Also included below is a short video of that time with Mani in 1990.
"Once and for all make the resolve
That everything is God’s and nothing is mine
Let that be your resolve
"In me there is nothing of mine
Whatever there is, is Yours
Having made over to You what is Yours
What concern have I with any of it"
In Baba's love and service,
Buz Connor
