“Baba’s miracles were there”

G.T. Naidu found out about Meher Baba when a co-worker asked Naidu to do research on Him. As a scientist, Naidu explains that it would have been difficult to come to Baba any other way than intellectually. Over time, however, Baba showed Himself to Naidu and his family in many other personal and miraculous ways, even during their hardest moments.

“My one obedience brought my whole family to Baba”

Freiny Dadachanji recounts instances of obeying Baba, sometimes even against her own will. These acts of obedience pleased Baba but changed the course of Freiny’s life. Baba did not allow Freiny to go visit her family in Karachi, which caused a lot of contention with her family. But Baba had a different plan: He brought Freiny’s family to Him instead.

“An entirely different order of devotion”
In April and May of 1969, four months after Meher Baba dropped His physical body, many of His young western lovers arrived in Poona, India to keep their appointment with God. What later came to be called The Last Darshan was arranged by Meher Baba and all attendees were invited by Him. In this masterpiece of a speech to these young lovers, Francis Brabazon talks of the might of our Beloved Baba; our steps toward Him and His steps toward us; and the nourishing of His word and His song in our hearts.
