"The inaudible sound is from heart to heart..."
Meher Mount
Your Friday photo is in honor of the 100th Anniversary of Avatar Meher Baba’s silence on July 10th…
“Those who have been in his presence know that Baba communicates through his silence.
What proceeds from him is beyond words, does not need words, could not be contained in them.
The inaudible sound is from heart to heart: silence that penetrates mind and heart.”
The God-Man, by C.B. Purdom, is the first authoritative biography of Avatar Meher Baba. It includes Purdom's personal recollections and messages he took down as they were being conveyed by Meher Baba, along with selections from diaries and memories of other witnesses present.
