"It is a manifestation of the path we all walk in life..."
Meher Mount
Your Friday photo…
Gordon Meier visited on a foggy, cool day this spring and was inspired to create this painting representing his visit. Gordon shared his observations gleaned from that day at Meher Mount.
“It is a manifestation of the path we all walk in life, and the truth in our inability or lack of awareness to see, with our eyes, what lies much further in front of us. ”
Our visit was wonderfully peaceful.
I had only heard the name “Meher Baba” referenced by other spiritual vessels prior to our visit. Which I now feel was a blessing in order to be open to all the energy there.
A cloud covered Meher Mount and the surrounding area on the morning we arrived. We were the only visitors.
I love these days of blurred anonymity and horizonless landscapes.
It is a manifestation of the path we all walk in life, and the truth in our inability or lack of awareness to see, with our eyes, what lies much further in front of us.
We sat by Baba’s Tree and meditated.
The cloud surrounded us, a fine mist gathered on our clothes and faces. The birds moved ever closer.
We were absorbed into all, in stillness, in muted colors — washed out in the oneness enveloping us.
And that, what I later learned, was the message.
Always present.
With gratitude and many more returns,
~Gordon Meier, Visitor
Postscript: I had not realized until after creating this painting and reading more about Meher Mount and Sulphur Mountain, there is a feeling that this place is the meeting of heaven and earth, which is almost a literal depiction in my painting. Amazing.
