Glimpses of the God-Man, Vol. 6, Part 1 GLIMPSES OF THE GOD-MAN MEHER BABA Volume VI (March 1954 – April 1955) By Bal Natu An Avatar Meher Baba Trust eBook June 2011 Copyright © 1994 by Avatar Meher Baba Perpetual Public Charitable Trust, Ahmednagar, India Source: This eBook reproduces the original edition of Glimpses of the God-Man, Meher Baba, Volume VI, published by Sheriar Foundation (North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina) in 1994. eBooks at the Avatar Meher Baba Trust Web Site The Avatar Meher Baba Trust’s eBooks aspire to be textually exact though non-facsimile reproductions of published books, journals and articles. With the consent of the copyright holders, these online editions are being made available through the Avatar Meher Baba Trust’s web site, for the research needs of Meher Baba’s lovers and the general public around the world. Again, the eBooks reproduce the text, though not the exact visual likeness, of the original publications. They have been created through a process of scanning the original pages, running these scans through optical character recognition (OCR) software, reflowing the new text, and proofreading it. Except in rare cases where we specify otherwise, the texts that you will find here correspond, page for page, with those of the original publications: in other words, page citations reliably correspond to those of the source books. But in other respects—such as lineation and font—the page designs differ. Our purpose is to provide digital texts that are more readily downloadable and searchable than photo facsimile images of the originals would have been. Moreover, they are often much more readable, especially in the case of older books, whose discoloration and deteriorated condition often makes them partly illegible. Since all this work of scanning and reflowing and proofreading has been accomplished by a team of volunteers, it is always possible that errors have crept into these online editions. If you find any of these, please let us know, by emailing us at [email protected]. The aim of the Trust’s online library is to reproduce the original texts faithfully. In certain cases, however—and this applies especially to some of the older books that were never republished in updated versions—we have corrected certain small errors of a typographic order. When this has been done, all of these corrections are listed in the “Register of Editorial Alterations” that appears at the end of the digital book. If you want the original text in its exact original form, warts and all, you can reconstruct this with the aid of the “register.” The Trust’s Online Library remains very much a work in progress. With your help and input, it will increase in scope and improve in elegance and accuracy as the years go by. In the meantime, we hope it will serve the needs of those seeking to deepen and broaden their own familiarity with Avatar Meher Baba’s life and message and to disseminate this good news throughout the world.

I gratefully acknowledge the Avatar Meher Baba Perpetual Public Charitable Trust, Ahmednagar, for use of some published material, the copyright of which is vested with the Trust. In the same way, I thank Meher Spiritual Center, Inc., Myrtle Beach, South Carolina; Sheriar Press, Inc., Myrtle Beach, South Carolina; Naosherwan Anzar, Editor of "Glow International," New York; Meher House Publications, Sydney, N.S.W., Australia; Meher Baba Foundation, Woombye, Queensland, Australia; and also Sufism Reoriented, Inc., Walnut Creek, California, for passages taken from the book, How a Master Works. My special thanks to Kishan Singh for his diary notes, to Darwin Shaw and some of the Westerners who wrote accounts of their stay at Meherabad, to Josephine Ross for her poems, and to those of Baba's dear ones in India who provided me with certain important information. It is very difficult for me to express adequately in words my feelings for the large team of Baba lovers, mostly from the West, who spent their time, talents, and energy over a period of four years helping me to present this sixth volume to the readers. It was amazing how the arrivals and departures of these dear friends seemed to have been arranged according to Baba's wish. At the appropriate times, they took their turns working with me on this volume whenever my body and mind were healthy enough to continue. Each one's contribution was of a special nature and enriched the contents. I deeply appreciate their help through all the different stages of this narrative, from the preparation of the first drafts to the final manuscript. Although everyone worked willingly, selflessly, and in a spirit of friendship in Baba's love, I especially wish to mention the names of some of my team members: Steve and vii GLIMPSES OF THE GOD-MAN Daphne Klein, Jeff Wolverton, Mark Keller, Ward Parks, Thom Fortson, Debbie Nordeen, Wendy Crabb, Laurel Magrini, and Kendra Crossen. And to those I haven't mentioned by name, my deepest thanks. Special thanks to Jerry and Shirla Edwards, who made their Macintosh available for this work and participated in the typing and printing of the entire manuscript. The computer was most helpful in the editing process. And finally, let me express my gratitude to the enlightening company of the Meherazad mandali and the Meherazad atmos- phere, suffused with Baba's lover, that sustained me in writing this volume. Once again, my wholehearted salutations to the Ancient One, Meher Baba. May His unbinding love be awakened more and more in the hearts of the people, and may Baba's most sacred Name be the breath of my life. Bal Natu February 25, 1992 Meherazad viii PREFACE It was December 1952. Avatar Meher Baba was in Delhi for a darshan program. In the morning, while sitting with His disciples in the house of one of His lovers, He heard someone singing softly. It was a young village boy who was sweeping the floor in the next room. Meher Baba sent for him and expressed a wish that the boy sing two of the Urdu lines again. The boy happily did this, and Baba looked very pleased. He joined His thumb and index finger to form a circle, a sign conveying that He was really happy. He lovingly blessed the boy and then asked him to go back to his household work. Baba did not communicate anything to those with Him about the meaning of those lines. However, the simple words of that Urdu couplet have a profound meaning. And many times I am reminded of these lines, especially when sharing Avatar Meher Baba's life with others, either in my personal conversations or while writing Glimpses. The couplet when freely translated into English is: O Beloved Lord, it often surprises me to find how people fail to understand the simple, obvious fact of our relationship. Not knowing this, they praise my love for You. In fact, it is only a faint reflection of Your glowing love — a gift of Your grace, reflected in the mirror of my dusty heart. Thus, if any words in Glimpses touch the hearts of the readers, it is a fraction of Avatar Meher Baba's unconditional Love mirrored in their hearts. May He be praised! For me, sharing Meher Baba's life of self-giving divine Love with others is a source of unfading joy. So there is no intention of drumming Meher Baba's Avatarhood in the ears of people. Periodically, when God as the Ancient One assumes a human form and begins to function as the Avatar of the Age, He, in His conscious omnipresence, silently touches the heart of each soul and is ready to awaken it to His love according to the measure of one's longing. ix GLIMPSES OF THE GOD-MAN So my part in writing Glimpses of the God-Man, Meher Baba is to record and relate the glory of His love, compassion, and suffering for all. I have tried to express this Avataric life in words through some of the incidents in His ministry on earth that I have personally witnessed or have heard from others. This is also one of my ways of drowning my "self" in His presence. To what degree I am successful, don't ask me! Over the last few years, I am not keeping good health, and my memory is not what it once was.

    Meher Baba & Adele Wolkin "I am always with you and I am not away from you. I was, am and will remain eternally with you, and it is for promoting this realization that I have severed external contact. This will enable all persons to realize Truth by being bound to each other with internal links." -- Meher Baba (last message on alphabet board) Weekly Reflections No. 53 from Meher Baba Books (Los Angeles, California) Jan‐02‐2016 Hello Dear Friends and Companions: Greetings from Los Angeles, California. Happy New Year! and enjoy the cold crispy weather, if you are in the Northern Hemisphere. This issue of Weekly Reflections comes with warm New Year's wishes, as we begin a new cycle together in His remembrance. For our weekly appointment (delayed a day in deference to New Year's day on Friday), we turn to reflect on the life of Adele Wolkin (April 9, 1918 ­ December 21, 2015), a notable life­long Baba­lover who recently completed her round of days on Earth. A stalwart devotee of Avatar Meher Baba, Adele first learned of the Master along with her friend Filis Frederick in the mid­1940s, when the two young women joined a circle of aspirants surrounding Baba's close Western women disciples Elizabeth Patterson, Norina Matchabelli, and Nadine Tolstoy in New York City. Adele and Filis were invited to live in Elizabeth's home for several years, while this dynamic cluster of women prepared the new Meher Spiritual Center for Baba's anticipated return­visit to the United States. Adele and Filis met Beloved Baba for the first time in Myrtle Beach in 1952.

  • Meher Baba Text Section 26-4-06
    Preface When Meher Baba and me was first published I expected to be addressing a Baba lover audience exclusively. It turned out that a number of relatives and friends who were not Baba lovers liked the book very much and the lack of knowledge regarding Baba’s Life or ‘Cosmology’ didn’t seem to matter. This was a lovely surprise! For those readers who might want to know more about Baba, I’d like to recommend this unusual, amazing web site: http://www.meherbabadnyana.net/life_eternal/Life_Eternal.html Of course Googling Meher Baba will bring up dozens of interesting sites – but this one is quite special.

    Oral Testimonies on Sai Baba As Gathered During a Field Research in Shirdi and Other Locales in October-November 1985 Antonio Rigopoulos 3 Shirdi-Sakuri-Shirdi Thursday, October 17, 1985 Excerpts From My Diary 10:15 a.m. The weather is fine. This morning I had the privilege of inter- viewing Uddhao, the son of the famous Madhavrao Deshpande alias Shy- ama, who was twelve years old when Sai Baba died or, as devotees say, took samādhi.1 It was a wonderful meeting. I immediately realized that asking broad, open-ended questions is the best way to go. Although I had a list of questions in my mind2 I just dropped it and let Uddhao say what he thought was important. He and his wife were very hospitable and we had a relaxed conversation while sipping a good cup of tea. In their house I also met a passing visitor, Mr. Baldev Y. Girme of Kopar- gaon who, together with his wife Aruna and their eight-year-old son Pawan, had come to pay respects to Uddhao. Mr. Girme is a young man in his thir- ties who appears to be quite knowledgeable and he and his wife gracious- ly acted as my interpreters, their English being fluent.3 Mr. Girme gave me the address in Bombay of a very old guru whose name is Swami Ram Baba, who is believed to be one hundred and thirty-eight years of age (!). Appar- ently he is still in good shape, speaks good English, and met Sai Baba in the old days.

Following a tradition of Indian religious figures who toured Britain and America in the nineteenth and twentieth century, Baba was removed from organised religion and placed emphasis on self-realisation, and attracted large British followings notably dominated by women. This article argues that the 1930s witnessed a continuing interest in Indian religious figures and adherence to Orientalist stereotypes about Indian religiosity despite changing political dynamics.
