<strong>THE</strong> HIGHEST OF <strong>THE</strong> HIGH 217show them first that you really love me. Do not merely make them read my books <strong><strong>an</strong>d</strong> messages; do more.Live such a life <strong>of</strong> love, sacrifice, forgiveness <strong><strong>an</strong>d</strong> toler<strong>an</strong>ce that others will love me. If instead <strong>of</strong> doing thereal work <strong>of</strong> love, you start org<strong>an</strong>ized propag<strong><strong>an</strong>d</strong>a for me, it is absurd. I need no propag<strong><strong>an</strong>d</strong>a or publicity. Ido not w<strong>an</strong>t propag<strong><strong>an</strong>d</strong>a <strong><strong>an</strong>d</strong> publicity, but I do w<strong>an</strong>t love <strong><strong>an</strong>d</strong> honesty. If you c<strong>an</strong>not live the life <strong>of</strong> love <strong><strong>an</strong>d</strong>honesty, you should stop working for me. I am quite capable <strong>of</strong> doing my Universal <strong>Work</strong> alone."Fifthly, I w<strong>an</strong>t you all to know for certain that '<strong>Baba</strong>'s work' needs no money ... to depend on money for'<strong>Baba</strong>'s work' is work undone. To ask people to give money, <strong><strong>an</strong>d</strong> in return to propagate '<strong>Baba</strong>'s Message <strong>of</strong>Love' is utter folly. <strong>The</strong>refore, whether you have money or not, let it not affect my work. Money comes <strong><strong>an</strong>d</strong>goes; whereas my work is eternal.... If you love me even a little, I w<strong>an</strong>t your hearts towards each other to becle<strong>an</strong> <strong><strong>an</strong>d</strong> for you to forget your differences. Cle<strong>an</strong>se your hearts <strong><strong>an</strong>d</strong> live for '<strong>Baba</strong>'."Outwardly, you may establish hundreds <strong>of</strong> centres for <strong>Baba</strong>, or none at all; that is your own responsibility.But bear in mind that for my work it is not necessary to have centres or <strong>of</strong>fices, nor accounts <strong><strong>an</strong>d</strong> thecollecting <strong>of</strong> money. Let <strong>Baba</strong>'s love be the Centre, the Office, the help <strong><strong>an</strong>d</strong> the work."I w<strong>an</strong>t my lovers <strong><strong>an</strong>d</strong> workers to know that there is no greater '<strong>Baba</strong>'s Centre' th<strong>an</strong> the heart <strong>of</strong> my lover.Those who truly love me are my centres in the world. Let each '<strong>Baba</strong>lover,' wherever he or she may be, bethe '<strong>Baba</strong>'s Centre' personified, radiating the eternal message <strong>of</strong> Love Divine, living a life <strong>of</strong> love, sacrifice<strong><strong>an</strong>d</strong> honesty."When I call each one <strong>of</strong> you a '<strong>Baba</strong>-Centre', it does not me<strong>an</strong> that you should work individually when youc<strong>an</strong> work collectively in groups as <strong>Baba</strong>-centres. Neither does this me<strong>an</strong> that you should not work on yourown. I have shown you how I desire the work to be done; it is for you to follow the method best suited toyou...."You who love me have expressed your love in a way that touches my heart, <strong><strong>an</strong>d</strong> I feel very happy. Yet Ihave not known one who loves me as I would wish to be loved. <strong>The</strong>re are about 220 men <strong><strong>an</strong>d</strong> women fromthe East <strong><strong>an</strong>d</strong> the West who have so completely <strong><strong>an</strong>d</strong> utterly surrendered to me that they would do <strong>an</strong>ything Isay. Whatsoever I order them they will carry out, even if it me<strong>an</strong>s being cut to pieces. To surrender is higherth<strong>an</strong> to love, <strong><strong>an</strong>d</strong> paradoxical as it may seem, to love me as I ought to be loved is impossible, yet to obey meis possible. <strong>The</strong>refore to say you love me <strong><strong>an</strong>d</strong> yet not to obey me would be hypocritical.
