Meher Baba, The Awakener of the Age, describes the life of one who 'mingled with famous celebrities and the unknown poorest of the poor', practiced long periods of fasting and seclusion, at other times taking on rigorous travel to bring His message of unity to the West, and in the East, to locate and serve the special advanced souls known as masts. Thousands flocked to his Darshan programs, undeterred by the silence that he adopted in 1925 and observed for the remainder of his life until he dropped His body in January 1969. Meher Baba declared Himself without reservation as the Avatar of the Age. Part I of this book is a thorough biographical account of Meher Baba's life, from his birth in 1894 to the time he received the awareness of his divinity at age 19, and beyond, as he manifested this divinity and fulfilled the obligations particular to his spiritual station as the Highest of the High. Part II is the articulation of the author's understanding of important concepts delivered by Meher Baba, including Love, Surrender, Meditation, Sanskaras (the impressions that determine our mode of being in life), the Avatar, and the Whim - the original impetus for the Creation.

Worship & Devotion

A collection of essays from Don Stevens and contributors Charles Haynes, Marlena Applebaum, Laurent Weichberger, David Carter, Ed Flanagan, and Elias Petrides, on the topic of the deep desires and habits common to humanity in its expression of sexuality, and the relationship of this expression to fundamental spiritual values. The full range of human sexual expression - whether hetero, bisexual, or homosexual - is given consideration in this thoughtful, ground-breaking book.

Sexuality on the Spiritual Path

In September, 1954, twenty Western men had the unique opportunity to spend three weeks in the company of Avatar Meher Baba. It was a chance to participate in the Master's daily life of service to mankind - His mass darshan programs when over 15,000 people came to receive His blessing; to share in His work with the poor, the lepers, and depressed classes; to hear His inimitable spiritual discourses; to be His intimate companion on a day-to-day basis; to receive His personal attention, love and guidance in their own lives. At Meher Baba's behest, a diary of these "three incredible weeks" was kept by two devotees, Malcolm Schloss, mystic poet, and Charles B. Purdom, noted English editor and writer. First published in the pages of The Awakener Magazine, the diary is reprinted here in its entirety together with reminiscenses of other devotees who attended. This intimate glimpse of how a genuine Master works will inspire anyone struggling to match up spiritual understanding with daily life.

A school teacher by profession, he spent his vacations with Baba and was allowed intimate access to Him throughout his life. Bal is a natural writer who has a gift for simplicity and insight. He had an uncanny ability to combine lucid descriptions of Meher Baba's activities with deep heart-felt moments when Beloved Meher Baba's divinity and compassion shone forth.

This small book, borne from a dialogue between two close friends, offers unique answers to two age-old questions: Why am I still lonely? Why does nothing I do sate this longing I sometimes feel? As much of humanity finds itself increasingly driven to distraction, finding answers to these questions is a pressing need. Why do some of us feel a compulsive need to shop, to be entertained, to check our phones? Why, even in the midst of friends and family, do we feel isolated? Why, after acquiring a long-hoped-for good, is there a nagging sense that something is still missing? After decades of introspection into these and related questions, Yolanda Koumidou, a psychotherapist and poet, and Renate Moritz, a teacher and painter, found themselves in an intense conversation that, over the course of several years, they expanded into this book. The concepts that the two authors bring forward here are revelatory--and not at all prescriptive. This is not a how-to book in any sense. Instead of recommending a new way to do this or to do that, the book delves into still-deeper questions: Why do so many people experience loneliness as an undercurrent of their lives? And what if this experience is, in fact, inescapable? What if it is intrinsic to the human experience? Drawing on Sufi and Christian concepts, the teachings of Meher Baba, the Theory of the Psychology of the Selves, and their own lived experience, Yolanda and Renate take the reader on an unforgettable journey of self-discovery. By journey's end, the world does not appear the same. A new awareness of the fundamental causes of loneliness unleash untapped inner resources. As the authors have found, the creativity of the heart offers a way to make use of the existential predicament of human longing.
