Three: The Art of Discipleship 129
Let not despair or disappointment ravage and destroy the garden
of your life;
You beautify it by contentment and self-sufficiency.
“Even though your heart be cut to bits, let a smile be on your
lips.
Here I divulge to you a truth:
Hidden in your empty hands is treasure untold;
Your beggarly life is the envy of kings.
“God exists indeed, and true are the Prophets,
Every cycle has an Avatar, and every moment a wali.*
For us, however, it is only hopelessness and helplessness,
How else can I describe to you what our New Life is”
A Prayer for Baba’s Lovers
Dictated by Meher Baba
Beloved God, help us all to love You more and more,
And more and more and still yet more,
Till we become worthy of union with You;
And help us all to hold fast to Baba’s Daaman till the
very end.
