“My Love story with Baba”
Rhoda and Adi Dubash were old time lovers of Baba who later resided in Meherabad. In part one of this talk, Adi shares what being a Baba lover means to him, then passing the baton to Rhoda who shares her story of coming to Baba. The story begins with calling out to the impersonal God when she was in danger, being hell bent on not being involved with Meher Baba and then discovering her husband Adi’s love for Baba. In a state of turmoil, she silently challenged Meher Baba in her heart for Him to prove His Godhood. And there started a love story.
