SUMMARY:Celebrating Baba’s Book\, the 100th Year Anniversary\, Meeting Place
DESCRIPTION:Richard Blum will give a presentation entitled: Baba’s Book—A Connection between Silence and Revelation. Baba began writing His book just 3 days after the start of His silence. Was there a connection between His silence and his revelations? This question will be explored along with a concise history of His book\, a short video of Padri describing how Baba wrote it\, and conclude with a video of Don Stevens and Meherwan Jessawala exploring how Baba’s book went missing.

SUMMARY:Prayers & Arti\, Barn
DESCRIPTION:Arti is a ceremony of worship involving devotional songs of praise to the Lord. In the Meher Baba community\, Arti was often performed before Meher Baba during His lifetime\, and is still performed twice a day at His tomb in India. \nThere are three prayers written by Meher Baba that are said at the beginning of Arti: the Master’s Prayer\, the Prayer of Repentance\, and the Beloved God Prayer. After the prayers are said\, two of five special songs are sung that were written for this purpose and were approved by Baba for use as Artis. Afterward\, there is a time for anyone who wants to express their love in their own way\, often through music\, poetry\, or storytelling. \nMeher Baba made it clear\, again and again\, that He had come to “abolish … rites and rituals\,” and that ceremonies done simply by rote had no meaning on the spiritual path. Paradoxically\, however\, He participated in Arti. Even toward the end of Baba’s life\, when He was suffering severely from back and hip pain from His 1956 car accident\, He still insisted on standing for the prayers. Baba said\, “My participation in these prayers has great significance\, and by it\, the prayers are being invested with added power\, which people will feel when reciting them and be benefited.” \nMany people feel that by coming together as a group for these special prayers and songs\, they can feel Baba’s presence palpably\, and His acceptance of their love and offering.

SUMMARY:Celebrating the Divine\, Library Reading Room
DESCRIPTION:This sharing of poetry\, music and readings is an informal way of sharing God’s love and presence in our lives. While words cannot begin to describe the complex charms of being with the divine Beloved\, they do have power to weave this experience magically into poetry\, songs and prose. \nThe gathering welcomes guests to bring their own brief offerings or those of master crafters to share with the group. Rumi\, Hafiz\, St Theresa of Avila and Kabir always end up making it to the circles\, we wonder why! Have nothing to share? You are still welcome to just listen and be inspired by the works of these greats.

SUMMARY:Readings from Meher Baba's Discourses\, Library Reading Room
DESCRIPTION:Written in the 1940’s\, Discourses is among Meher Baba’s primary works that shines the light of true knowledge on life’s perplexing problems.
