SELECTIONS FROM THE BIRTHDAY MESSAGES OF MEHER BABA 1954 Statements and messages can lead us nowhere on the spiritual path. The more you try to understand God, the less you understand Him. How can He who is beyond explanation, be expressed in words? It being infinitely easy has rendered it infinitely difficult. The secret is you have to become what you already are. You can know Me as I am, as one of you and one in you, only when the veils of separateness are lifted. This can be done if you love Me honestly and wholeheartedly. Lose yourself in Baba and you will find that you eternally are Baba. There can be no compromise in love. It has either to be full or not at all. I say today with Divine Authority that I am the Ancient One and I am the slave of those who really love Me.
