The Master’s Prayer, Prayer of Repentance and Beloved God Prayer

The Master’s Prayer: Given by Meher Baba in 1953

O Parvardigar, the Preserver and Protector of All,

You are without Beginning and without End,

Non-dual, beyond comparison, and none can measure You.

You are without colour, without expression, without form and without attributes.

You are unlimited and unfathomable, beyond imagination and conception, eternal and imperishable.

You are indivisible, and none can see You but with eyes Divine.

You always were, You always are, and You always will be.

You are everywhere; You are in everything;

and You are also beyond everywhere and beyond everything.

You are in the firmament and in the depths.

You are manifest and unmanifest on all planes and beyond all planes;

You are in the three worlds and also beyond the three worlds.

You are imperceptible and independent.

You are the Creator, the Lord of Lords, the Knower of all minds and hearts;

You are Omnipotent and Omnipresent.

You are Knowledge Infinite, Power Infinite and Bliss Infinite.

You are the Ocean of Knowledge, All-knowing, Infinitely-knowing,

the Knower of the past, the present, and the future;

and You are Knowledge itself.

You are All-merciful and eternally benevolent.

You are the Soul of souls, the One with infinite attributes.

You are the Trinity of Truth, Knowledge and Bliss;

You are the Source of Truth, the Ocean of Love.

You are the Ancient One, the Highest of the High;

You are Prabhu and Parameshwar;

You are the Beyond-God and the Beyond-Beyond-God also;

You are Parabrahma, Allah, Elahi, Yezdan, Ahuramazda, and God the Beloved.

You are named Ezad: the only One worthy of worship.

 

The Prayer of Repentance: Given by Meher Baba in 1952

We repent, O God most merciful, for all our sins;

for every thought that was false or unjust or unclean;

for every word spoken that ought not to have been spoken;

for every deed done that ought not to have been done;

We repent for every deed and word and thought inspired by selfishness,

for every deed and word and thought inspired by hatred.

We repent especially for every lustful thought and every lustful action;

for every lie; for all hypocrisy;

for every promise given but not fulfilled,

and for all slander and backbiting.

Most especially also, we repent for every action

that has brought harm to others,

for every word and deed that has given others pain;

and for every wish that pain should befall others.

In Your unbounded mercy, we ask you to forgive us, O God,

for all these sins committed by us,

and to forgive us for our constant failures

to think and speak and act according to Your wish.

The Beloved God Prayer: Given By Baba in 1959

Beloved God,

help us all to love You more and more,

and more and more and still yet more,

till we become worthy of union with You;

and help us all to hold fast to Baba’s daaman till the very end.
