Trust Post Bag No.31, King’s Road, Ahmednagar-414001, (M.S.) India Beloved Avatar Meher Baba Ki Jai 17th October, 2007 My Dearest Waryam Singhji, Dear B.N. Bhasin presented the book “Baba’s Grace” (or “Grace of Baba”) to me and he requested that I should write a preface for the revised and enlarged second edition. I find so much love from you for the Beloved. You have dedicated this second edition also to your father the late Pritam Singh Meher your mother the late Gyan Kaur, your son Late Gurcharan Singh, and to your Divine Father Avatar Meher Baba, Your father and mother and you and the family are really very close to Beloved Baba. I used to go to Delhi every year for Trust work, and when I would go I would see your father and Principal Niranjan Singh. When I went to see your father, he was lying in the bed, and Baba’s picture was in front of him on the wall. He would not talk and he would just look at Baba’s picture. So I asked your mother, “Since when he is lying down in the bed?” And she said, “He has been lying down in the bed since long. He does not talk and he just looks at Beloved Baba’s picture continuously.” But when he saw me standing before him, he got up and he embraced me. The tears were in his eyes and he was saying, “Baba, Baba, Baba.” I felt so much love of Beloved 7 Baba in his eyes, and good that I met him. After three days, he passed away. Your father was doing business out of India. Once it was Buddha’s anniversary and people were seeking some Indian to take in procession. They found Pritam Singh. He saw Buddha’s love in them, and he thought, “Just see, I am from India. They love Buddha so much, and I don’t know anything about Buddha.” The procession was very large, and they had a big chariot for him. As people were watching, they said “Some Indian is there leading the procession”. Pritam Singhji’s eyes were full of tears. The people looked at him and thought, “How much love he has for Buddha” But actually, Pritam Singh was repenting that he did not know anything about Buddha. In this procession, people would come running and garland him and he had nothing but tears. After Buddha’s anniversary, he sold out the business and came back to India. He went to Sarnath, Buddha’s place, and he was sitting there repeating “Buddha, Buddha, Buddha”. The watchman of the stupa came to him and asked, “Do you know the living Buddha?” Pritam Singhji immediately queried, “Is living Buddha in India?” The watchman replied, “He has come here four or five times. He is there at Meherabad”. Pritam Singhji took the address and wrote a letter to Meher Baba saying “I want to see you”. The letter was read out to Baba. He informed Pritam Singh that he would see him when He would come out of His seclusion, He would inform him. It took four years, and then he received a letter from Baba saying, “You come here on such-and-such date.” Pritam Singhji did come to Meherabad, and when he embraced Baba he was so much touched to see Baba that he could not utter a word, but only had tears in his eyes. He wanted to be with Baba, but Baba said, “You look after your family, and just wait for My call, I will call you.” And he did receive Baba’s call when he dropped his body in 1983. Previously, according to Baba’s instruction, he would come for Beloved Baba’s darshan, Sahavas, and all the programs which would happen from time to time when Baba would meet people. He had also come to attend the first anniversary of Beloved Baba’s 8 dropping the body. Only Baba was in his life, and the whole family belonged to Baba. So you, my dear Waryam Singhji, have written the book BABA’S GRACE, and now you have expanded it. I am really very much touched with your love for Beloved Baba. He is really the Compassionate Father, and only One who comes down on earth age after age. He came as Zoroaster, Ram, Krishna, Buddha, Jesus, Prophet Mohammed and in this age, as Meher Baba. How blessed you and the dear ones of the family are who all love Beloved Baba so deeply. So how can I say in words about your love for Beloved Baba, and the family’s love? The only thing I can say is that I salute your love in name of Beloved Avatar Meher Baba 101 times. Avatar Meher Baba Ki Jai! With all love and Jai Baba to you, In His Love and Service, V.S. Kalchuri (Bhau) 9 Preface to Second edition My father was a great lover of Beloved Avatar Meher Baba and during his last days he was actually in communion with Baba. It is due to him that I came to the threshold of Beloved Meher Baba. In him I saw the innocent and pure love flowing from his eyes for Baba. I also understood Baba’s Love for His lovers. Here, I would like to mention that the small experiences I had and the new life Baba gave in spite of seven stab wounds is entirely because of His compassion and grace. Perhaps I do not deserve any. The life that I have lived and the way this book has come about is also due to His grace. Baba’s Darshan for the first time on 14th January 1956 at Pune. I always had a deep desire to publish the account of my father’s love story with Beloved Meher Baba, which became possible at Pune in February 2000 on the occasion of Beloved Meher Baba’s birthday on 25th February. The book was titled ‘Panj Pyare-The five favorite Sikh lovers of Meher Baba’. Further, the book was translated in Hindi as well as in Telugu and released by Bhau Kalchuri during 33rd and 34th Amartithi on 31st January 2003 and 2004 respectively. It was really His grace that publishing these books were possible. Regarding the book ‘Panj Pyare’, K.K. Rama Krishnan said in the introduction of the book, “It will be worthwhile to mention here that Waryam Singh had Baba’s Darshan on 14th January, 1956 and the draft copy of this book was received by him on 14th January, 2000. He was overjoyed to receive the book on the same day. This is not a coincidence but Meher Baba’s way of revealing to us His rhythm, timing and pace”. 10 During the 34th Amartithi there was an announcement which attracted my attention. The announcement was made by Raj Khilnani who said, “Recently I read a book which was a compilation of various people’s description of how Jesus Christ looked when they had a vision of Jesus Christ. Today, there are many Baba lovers who have seen Baba; so let us also compile the account of each person as how they felt Baba looked like. This will be a special compilation because God has again come and currently His followers who have seen Him are also available. Before it is too late, I request all those who saw Baba must send their description to me or to the Trust Office.” This announcement made me think deeply of my three opportunities when I had Baba’s darshan. While I thought of Baba’s darshan, my life itself came to me as a film directed by Baba Himself. So I had a desire to recount and record my life with Baba into a small article. But again by His grace my account has taken the form of a book. It is for the posterity to decide whether this simple account of a lover about his Master’s guidance and unconditional love was worth the effort.
