THE SAMADHI

The Site Of Meher Baba's Tomb

In the last week of July [1927], Baba ordered a pit to be dug in the floor of this small cabin, six feet long, four feet wide and six feet deep, but at the time he did not disclose its purpose.

The Fragrance On The Hill

Then some time on the 9th August, in the same way that the Fragrance had come, it was gone.

Now We Will Have Arti

Before long I started walking again in the direction of the Samadhi to be in good time for Arti, and met Mansari bringing lanterns for the 'tin shed' verandah.

Don't Worry, Be Happy

If you are coming to India, don't come with any preconceived expectations of what you may receive; come just to lay your head at His feet and empty it of its burden, leaving the rest to His pleasure.

Garlanding Yourself

At Baba's tomb, some young people had put garlands around their own necks while waiting in line.

That Little Room Holds The Key

The Samadhi is where Meher Baba responds to His lovers' longing for the Avatar's physical company.

Rano's Paintings

When Helen left India for Switzerland, Baba Himself had this portrait removed, leaving us facing a blank space in the central window.
