“He put a drop of love in my heart”
Stuart Baker was raised in a secular Jewish family where “there was a lot of guilt and a lot of great cooking.” His mother also had a bleak assessment of life as “hard and unfair,” which Stuart refused to accept. That launched him on an extraordinary inner journey as a teenager during which he accompanied by his “best friend, God.” That empowered him and eventually, after a period of disillusionment, led him to Meher Baba. Stuart soon traveled to the Center, then to India, and eventually moved to Myrtle Beach in his early 20s. And that’s just the beginning of his uplifting story.

“In the face of Baba’s divine love and power, nothing could resist”
Beginning on September 11th, 1954, a group of 20 Western men arrived in Meherabad after being personally invited by the Master, and the period now known as the “Three Incredible Weeks” began. Darwin Shaw was one of those lucky men. In this beautiful recording, Darwin shares his inner experiences of being with Baba during this time. His heartfelt memories give us a glimpse of the overwhelming love that those fortunate enough to stand in Meher Baba’s presence received from their Beloved.

“His Grace is Unbounded”
In this highly emotional and touching video, Jeff Williams and Cynthia Thomas share their individual stories and how Baba eventually brought them lovingly together. Jeff’s early life was riddled with violence, some of which was extreme. (Just a note, some parts of his story are difficult to hear.) Jeff felt abandoned by all, especially God, even though he also knew God was within. When he was in his early 20’s, he heard about Meher Baba and his life began to change. Cynthia’s story is quite different. An only child, she was raised in an immigrant family in Boston and went to Catholic schools. But she never felt comfortable in her heart with religion. In her early 20s, she met a man, converted to Judaism, married and had three children. She also became a highly successful designer. But she was always seeking. Through a series of perfect Baba coincidences, Jeff and Cynthia eventually met, fell in love, married and they now live happily in Myrtle Beach.

“I really think I was three feet off the ground”
Andy Muir and his wife Peggy (the couple lovingly named “Pegandy” by Baba) met Meher Baba in Myrtle Beach during His three visits to the Center. This audio begins with Baba and Andy in Meher Abode. Andy said Baba would spontaneously appear and disappear again. Andy shares other stories and experiences he had in Baba’s presence, such as cheerful throwing of Prasad and when He gave Pegandy the meaning and significance of His Damaan. One time, Andy stood in line to kiss Baba’s cheek, and once he kissed Him, he recalls “I had never felt happier. What a privilege. What a blessing.” During his time with Baba, Andy learned he didn’t need to earn Baba’s Love, as real love is unconditional; he just needs to hold onto His Damaan.

“He’s the one who keeps everyone in a straight line”
In this delightful audio recording, Mani shares some of her more memorable experiences with children and their parents. Starting with a mother who named their daughter Meher and so never felt she could discipline her and moving on to several touching stories about children who had their own, special relationships with Baba.

“What does it mean to actually live His wish?”
Alex Davis, actor, playwright, and long-distance hiker, shares how he came to Baba and his subsequent, and sometimes challenging, intellectual journey. He grew up with Baba parents, but they chose to let him find his own path. After a spiritual crisis in college, he started exploring spirituality intellectually and began reading Baba books. He became focused on the enigma of God and the breaking of Meher Baba’s silence. He’s now less focused on “the mysteries of life” as he continues to explore his relationship with Baba. He also visits the Center often, attends the Young Adult Sahavases, and he enjoys belonging to the world-wide Baba community.

“You Can Never Be Far Away from Me”
In this enlightening presentation, Charles Haynes and Christopher Wilson explore Meher Baba’s role in the life and art of Helen Dahm, the famous Swiss artist who painted the inside of Baba’s Samadhi. Beginning with a slideshow of Helen’s early paintings, their talk describes the events that led up to her meeting Meher Baba and her experience living in the women’s ashram, which was a pivotal time in her life. In 1934, Baba conveyed to her, “I am also a painter. I paint the hearts of people with the colors of spirituality.” While in the ashram, Helen felt depressed and isolated, so Baba directed her to paint the inside of His Samadhi and crypt, and she became very happy while working under His guidance.

“Baba’s Nazar is on the Press”
In part two of Sheila Krynski’s talk, she focuses on the evolution of Sheriar Press from its founding in 1971 to its closing this past January. She’s accompanied by Jim Wrobel, the electronic prepress technician who joined the press in 1975 and continued there until its end. Sheila shares that Mani and Kitty approved and encouraged her to grow the business and also to start the Sheriar Foundation. From her beginnings as a painter, to learning about printing machines, owning an award-winning printing agency, and designing, publishing and printing Baba books, Sheila has been extraordinarily happy with this ever-evolving life that Baba lined up for her. She concludes the talk with, “I can’t imagine not doing it because it means so much to me.”
