THE MASTER

Concentration Upon One Master

Exclusive concentration upon one Master is usually indispensable for gathering up the psychic energy of the disciple.

When My Will becomes your way, you are truly following Me, and then you are safe and you are saved.

Truth Cannot Speak A Lie

If you had this conviction you would have felt cold because I said that it was cold.

I Shall Never Fail You

It is true, I use the circumstances of everyday life to liberate my devotees, but I use them in a way that is beyond the comprehension of the intellect.

Constructing A Channel Between Master And Aspirant

The help of the Master goes out not only to those who are in his physical presence but also to others who establish mental contact with him.

He Has To Give A Hard Blow

Of course, He always forgives — even ten times — but what He means is that the third time He has to give a hard blow, like the blacksmith, and it is difficult to bear.

You Will Be Saved By Remembering Me

But before inanimate objects, during any serious mishap or accident — such as a car crash or train wreck — you will be saved by remembering me with full faith from the bottom of your heart.

Pulled By His Destiny

Pascal, pulled by his destiny, could not follow Baba's order; he did not realize it would have changed the course of his life.

Once in a long while there comes the true hero, the giant in Love that can gulp the Ocean itself!

No Cause For Offense

No Room For Even A Shadow

The Master is the very source of purity, and to set one's heart on the Master is the beginning of self-purification.

Baba Is Fire

When you feel hungry/ And cook on the fire,/ It gives you your food/ For which you aspire.

Conflict Between The Claims Of The Master And Other Claims

The Master is supremely impersonal. His only concern is to remove the veils between the consciousness of the disciple and his Higher Self.

Helpful Contacts

Just as the Master may isolate a close disciple from undesirable contacts and connections, he may encourage and bring about new and fresh contacts.
