The Importance of the Tangible, Physical Legacy of Avatar Meher Baba
Peter Nordeen
In no other avataric advent has the avatar left behind such a tangible legacy of His love. Besides the ultimate gift of His form, He has given humanity His messages, discourses, and words, and His close ones have recorded thousands of examples of His exemplary life and work. He has also given us precious treasures associated with the work He did while on earth, many times telling His disciples to keep them for the future.
Only Baba knows the true significance of any objects connected to Him. But as His lovers, we wholeheartedly appreciate the thoughtful, abundant legacy He has left us. In this talk, Peter Nordeen discusses this aspect of Baba's life and work, and then answers questions from online meeting attendees.
Total running time is 1 hour, 31 minutes, 14 seconds (01:31:14). Recorded August 9, 2020 in Asheville, North Carolina, USA.
