But such a tiny and trivial thing as an umbrella can deprive you of the sight of such a stupendous fact as the sun.
Meher BabaSuffering is essential for the elimination of the ego, just as it was necessary for you to scrub and scrub in order to wash the stain from my coat.
Meher BabaLight can penetrate any amount of darkness but no amount of darkness can penetrate light.
Meher BabaPeople wait for the big moment, the great event, and forget that happiness comes from building steadily on the small daily things of life. People wait for that special moment to express love and forget that love springs from thoughtfulness practised every day. People wait, but waiting is future and NOW is always the time.
Meher BabaThough the eye is small, the soul which sees through it is greater and vaster than all the things which it perceives. In fact, it is so great that it includes all objects, however large or numerous, within itself. For it is not so much that you are within the cosmos as that the cosmos is within you.
