Special Message for the 72nd Birthday Celebration

 

25th February, 1966

Be composed in the Reality of My Love, for all confusion and despair is your own shadow which will vanish when I speak THE WORD.

 

Shun those masters who are like multi-colored electric signs that flash on and off, brightening the dark sky of your world for a moment and leaving you in darkness again.

 

I am the Sun which is hidden by the shadow of yourself. Cease thinking that you are your shadow, and you will find that the Sun which I am is your own Reality.

 

All that frightens and confuses you and grips you with despair is your own shadow. When the Sun of Love manifests in Its Glory, and all faces are turned towards that Radiance, all shadows will have disappeared — even the memory of them will have vanished.

 

I am the joy in your heart and the despair of your mind — for Love can attain that which the intellect cannot fathom.

 

A post, to stand erect and firm, must have its butt-end sunk well into the ground. Likewise, my lover needs to have the base of his faith deeply embedded in My Divinity, if he would remain steadfast in his love.

 

Meher Baba
