Doing All For His Sake
Mani shares stories of her childhood with Baba and her sole ambition to be with Him. In this quintessentially Mani video, we get to see the objects that she made for Baba as a child. She also shows examples of the meticulous work that Mehera and she did in creating artistic pieces made from Baba’s hair and nails—not mere relics but symbols of simple devotion and utmost love for the Highest of the High.
