ABOVE ALL OTHER LOVES

Meher Baba

 
The love which the aspirant has for the Master is really the response evoked by the greater love which the Master has for the aspirant. It is to be placed above all other loves. Love for the Master naturally becomes a central power in the life of the aspirant because he knows the Master to be an embodiment and representation of Infinite God.

All his thoughts and aspirations, therefore, come to be woven around the personality of the Master. The Master thus has unquestioned supremacy among the claims recognised by the aspirant, and it is through this supremacy that the Master becomes the focal point for the radiation of spiritual forces which dispel all darkness, pluck out the sins of the heart and initiate the aspirant into a life of freedom and Truth-consciousness.
