Ron and Mary, first-time visitors to Meherazad, share their journey to discovering Meher Baba. They were both drawn to His image on the cover of the book “Path of Love,” which they had seen years before meeting Him. Eruch explains that Meher Baba’s grace and compassion are beyond human comprehension, and that His ways are His own, often referred to as His “royal prerogative.”
-
Meher Baba tasked the mandali with finding an “ideal boy,” a seemingly impossible and humiliating quest that persisted for years. Despite many attempts and various candidates, the ideal boy remained elusive. Eventually, Baba revealed that the ideal boy was a picture of himself from his youth, bringing the search to an end.

A story is shared about a boat ride in the Arabian Sea where Baba pointed out the receding shore and said, “I am that ocean.” A pilgrim recounts finding a picture of Jesus saving Peter from drowning in Baba’s room, a picture she had prayed to since childhood. Baba often pointed to this picture, reminding the mandali that He would always be there to save them from sinking, not drowning.
-
Eruch discusses the challenges of managing correspondence and the increasing workload at Meherazad, especially with the influx of visitors. He reflects on how the presence of pilgrims helps him remember Baba, emphasizing that their support is invaluable. Eruch also mentions the unexpected assistance from Westerners and the lack of worldly knowledge among the mandali members, attributing everything to Baba’s guidance.
