ABSOLUTE AND PERFECT RENUNCIATION

Meher Baba

 

Hopelessness means renunciation of all hopes.
Aimlessness means renunciation of all aims.
Helplessness means renunciation of all help.
No master, no disciple, means renunciation of all spirituality.
And the New Life I have in mind eventually means absolute renunciation.

Therefore, if any one asks you what this New Life is, say, "Absolute and perfect renunciation."

If they ask, "Renunciation of what?" say, "Of everything — aims, hopes, help and life itself."
