Meher Baba, The Awakener of the Age, describes the life of one who 'mingled with famous celebrities and the unknown poorest of the poor', practiced long periods of fasting and seclusion, at other times taking on rigorous travel to bring His message of unity to the West, and in the East, to locate and serve the special advanced souls known as masts. Thousands flocked to his Darshan programs, undeterred by the silence that he adopted in 1925 and observed for the remainder of his life until he dropped His body in January 1969. Meher Baba declared Himself without reservation as the Avatar of the Age. Part I of this book is a thorough biographical account of Meher Baba's life, from his birth in 1894 to the time he received the awareness of his divinity at age 19, and beyond, as he manifested this divinity and fulfilled the obligations particular to his spiritual station as the Highest of the High. Part II is the articulation of the author's understanding of important concepts delivered by Meher Baba, including Love, Surrender, Meditation, Sanskaras (the impressions that determine our mode of being in life), the Avatar, and the Whim - the original impetus for the Creation.

This book is based on the transcript of a two-day seminar presented by Don Stevens in London during May 2003. It is packed with deep sharing, emotionally charged issues, priceless stories, fantastic ideas, contemplative questions, and much more. Meher Baba revealed on more than one occasion that Don Stevens is in fact one of his Mandali (close circle of disciples). At this late stage of life, Don is harvesting the fruits of five decades in companionship with Meher Baba.

Meher Baba's Word & His Three Bridges

Religion & Spirituality

Don E. Stevens

Hinduism

This book is based on a seminar given by Don E. Stevens during October 2007. He felt strongly that the most important spiritual work in the world today is associated with forgiveness. Don and his Young Peoples Group (YPG) met to determine best way forward. In the language of Rwanda, known as Kinyarwanda there are two words: "imbabazi" which means (ask for) forgiveness, and "kubabarira" which means to forgive. On May 19, 2011 in London, Jean-Paul Samputu, a survivor of the Rwandan genocide wrote for Laurent about forgiveness: "In life we must find creative (or constructive) ways to negotiate conflicts. We cannot change the past but we can change how we approach it, or how we carry our feelings about it into the future, and forgiveness is the key. Forgiveness is the most powerful weapon against terrorism and atrocities. To break these cycles of violence, wars, conflicts, is to preach forgiveness. We live in the world where revenge is the culture. Only the culture of forgiveness will stop the cycle (of war, genocide, etc.). My real enemy was not the one who wronged me, my real enemy was my hatred, bitterness, my anger which came alive in me. We become what we don't forgive. Forgiveness means to liberate from bondage, to release from the prison of our desire for revenge, of our anger, our bitterness, and hatred. Life is not changed by knowing the word of the truth but by living the truth."

In September, 1954, twenty Western men had the unique opportunity to spend three weeks in the company of Avatar Meher Baba. It was a chance to participate in the Master's daily life of service to mankind - His mass darshan programs when over 15,000 people came to receive His blessing; to share in His work with the poor, the lepers, and depressed classes; to hear His inimitable spiritual discourses; to be His intimate companion on a day-to-day basis; to receive His personal attention, love and guidance in their own lives. At Meher Baba's behest, a diary of these "three incredible weeks" was kept by two devotees, Malcolm Schloss, mystic poet, and Charles B. Purdom, noted English editor and writer. First published in the pages of The Awakener Magazine, the diary is reprinted here in its entirety together with reminiscenses of other devotees who attended. This intimate glimpse of how a genuine Master works will inspire anyone struggling to match up spiritual understanding with daily life.

Glimpses is a minutely detailed biography, giving us intimate accounts of daily life with Avatar Meher Baba. This volume covers the period from 1949 - 1952.\nBal Natu (1919-2003) was one of Avatar Meher Baba's close disciples since the early 1940s. A school teacher by profession, he spent his vacations with Baba and was allowed intimate access to Him throughout his life. Bal is a natural writer who has a gift for simplicity and insight. He had an uncanny ability to combine lucid descriptions of Meher Baba's activities with deep heart-felt moments when Beloved Meher Baba's divinity and compassion shone forth.
