IT WILL ALWAYS BE THE CENTER OF MY WORK

 
Though this was, and is, a most profound statement, I failed to grasp the meaning contained in it. Years later, after Baba veiled His physical body, I began to think about the special significance of Meherabad, particularly the Samadhi, and I recalled the potent words of Asmi. I also remembered that, in the 1930's Baba had declared, "In the future, Meherabad will be like Jerusalem. For My spiritual work, it is the best place. It will always be the center of My work."

In 1938, while strolling on Meherabad Hill, Baba made a sweeping gesture and stated, "This whole universe is Mine, but this place is especially Mine."

I thought that if, as was revealed to Asmi decades ago, every grain of dust at Meherabad is being worshipped by the Seventh Heaven, then how much more sanctified must be the Samadhi? After all, the Samadhi, as specifically designated by Baba, has the honor of housing His body, the cloak donned by Infinite Consciousness in this Age.
