THE STONE THAT WILL BE WORSHIPPED IN YEARS TO COME

Meher Baba

 
Man realizing God is like a drop of water swallowing the ocean — no less! When, after the kiss from Babajan I knew that I was the Ocean, I did not want to come back to the ordinary 'drop' consciousness from that Blissful state where I alone was.

But despite my resistance, the five Perfect Masters kept 'Pulling me down' to ordinary consciousness for my destined manifestation as Avatar; and in the excruciating agony I went through during this 'tussle' I used to knock my forehead on a stone in my room at home, during the nine months before Upasani Maharaj brought me down to normal consciousness.

Much blood had flowed from my head on to that stone which is still in the room as it was then, and which will be worshipped universally in years to come.
