“The Shepherd”
In this moving section of a chat in Mandali Hall, Mani talks about the Mandali’s experience after Baba dropped His body—from trying to put aside their own grief so they could attend to their responsibilities, to shifting plans for Meherazad, to a moment of comfort and clarity involving a shepherd in a field at dusk.

“To teach us for our own good”
Faredoon Driver, nicknamed “Padri” by Baba, joined the Master in 1922 when he was eighteen years old and remained with Him for the rest of his life. Baba had Padri oversee much of the construction and maintenance at Meherabad, calling him one of “the Four Pillars of Meherabad.” In the 1960s and 70s, many pilgrims to Meherabad found the stalwart, exacting, humorous, loving Padri to be an inspiring example of a life lived solely for Baba. But in this snippet of conversation, Padri focuses back on the early 1920s, when he and the Mandali were “absolutely raw” and Baba was a “stern taskmaster” teaching them obedience—including these two lessons that Padri never forgot.

“He is not a dull Avatar”
In this spirited talk, Irwin Luck discusses the time he spent with Baba, but his recollection is not a plain recounting; it is interspersed with a lifelong reflection on what it is to be with Baba and belong to Him. Irwin first went to Baba because he wanted to know God and Baba indulged his request and changed the inner fabric of his being. His inner voice intuitively led him to New York from where he finally ended up in India. Tackling questions on metaphysics and beyond, Irwin describes Baba’s work in our lives through the effacement of the mind and finally through love—the only way to God.

“He made human of them”
In this segment of a talk, Naja Irani, Baba’s cousin and close disciple, discusses following Baba in the very early days of His work, around 1920. She speaks of the sometimes ragtag group of early disciples—from all religions and castes, and with wildly different temperaments—and how Baba in His love accepted all of them, bringing each inexorably nearer to God.

In this video, we see footage of that tour: the thousands of people who came to be in Baba’s presence, and the loving personal contact He managed to make with individuals amidst the crowd.
