( 6 ) The existence of almost all persons is under the control of the mind, but scarcely one out of every tE;n thousand peJ.•sons controis the mind, and thus masters the very existence itseif. ( 7) Happiness and misery, virtue and vice; plea· sure and pain, heaven and heH, birth arid death are .the creations of the mind and dependent on the mind. ( 8 )· It is the mind that makes one the slave to worldly desires. It- is also-the mind that -releases one · from the clutches of the worldly desires and makes one the realize~· of the Supreme Self and the master of destiny. ' · ( 9) It is one and the same Universal Being (God) Who plays the different roles of stone, metal, vegetable, dumb animal and human being, and through the exis-· tence of each of these experiences His own gross and subtle manifestations; and again it is the same indivisible Being, Who, th1•ough the existence. of a .realized or spiritually perfect personage, experiences His own real state which is beyond both the gross and the· subtle~ ( 10) God reveals Himself only to that mind which is entirely devoid of egoism and'·egotism. ' ( To he C01 i, tinw~d ) _ . WHAT I S GOD ?. ( JJy H is Divine J fajcsty Sadgw·u Jiehe?

    Francis Brabazon Collection: Significance Assessment Report Dr Ray Kerkhove Woombye, 2008 1 INDEX Collection Background…………………………….. 3 A. Statement of Significance……………………..... 4 B. Significance by Comparative Criteria…………. 15 C. Australian & Queensland Heritage Themes…… 17 D. Recommendations (Implementation)………….. 20 Appendixes………………………………………... 21 2 Collection Background The collection began as the personal library of Baron Frederick von Frankenberg, which was accumulated in Germany and other parts of Europe c.1900-1920s. It was initially housed at Camden (outside Sydney, NSW). The library formed the core resource for Australia’s first Sufi group and other persons interested in the arts and spirituality at that time. From this phase, the collection gained early editions of Inayat Khan’s works and the only extant material on the early Sufi Society in Australia. In 1950, the Modernist poet Francis Brabazon inherited the collection when he succeeded the Baron as head of the Sufi Society. Thereafter, and until 1959, the collection was housed in the centre Francis was constructing at Beacon’s Hill (Sydney). It continued to be used by Francis and his associates. Francis also added his own library, which consisted of books and recordings he acquired in Melbourne, New York and elsewhere. Some of these acquisitions reflect Francis’ role in early Australian Modernism. This enlarged it into an unusually comprehensive collection on the world’s literary and scriptural texts, which Francis then utilized in the creation of his own poetry, prose and music. Also from this period came many notes and drafts of Francis’ early works. Between 1959 and 1969, Francis Brabazon resided in India with his spiritual master, Meher Baba.

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. Exploring a range of public and private responses to Baba, following comparison with his contemporary Jiddu Krishnamurti, and discussing the role of British mediators Paul Brunton and Francis Younghusband, this article explores British impressions of Indian religious figures in the 1930s and how they were informed by notions of race, religiosity and gender.
