"Home at last."
"The feeling when we all came in the room and sat down in front of Baba, the feeling that I had was that Baba knew everything about me, every single little thing about me, and He accepted me exactly as I was and there was no reason to be anybody else. And if I were to summarize this in three words, the feeling was, 'home at last.'" - Joan Dimpfl Harland
