The Athens Baba community has been rather quiet lately. We still meet weekly at Hendershots for coffee and conversation. Recently friends from Myrtle Beach -- Maraiya and Keren -- joined us at our "Baba Breakfast" and we were regaled with funny and touching stories of Keren's time in the Israeli Army and how she came to find Meher Baba. We also heard from Bobbie who is fairly new to Athens but not new to Baba. Bobbie lived in Myrtle Beach years back and spent time with Elizabeth and Kitty. <br />
<br />
Many of us from Athens will be traveling to Myrtle Beach for Silence Day. It will be hot, crowded and wonderful. Definitely wonderful.<br />
<br />
In other news, rumor has it that our very own SJ will be emceeing next year's SE Gathering. More to come on that.<br />
<br />
In the meantime, here are some random photos featuring faces and places we know and love:<br />

The Athens Baba Family has been very busy this spring. Diana and Bill LePage spent a few weeks in Athens before heading to the Southeast Gathering. Bill gave several talks while in Athens and also headlined the Gathering. Charlie once again worked his magic to provide for a beautiful stage featuring artwork by Thom Fortson. Brian organized the musical acts and also shared his music with us every morning at Arti and during the musical showcase. Caleb and SJ (a/k/a Famous and Honey) left us wanting more after their fine performances. It was a good Gathering filled with family, friends and Baba's love and grace. For those who did not have a chance to spend time with Bill and Diana, they will be at the Center in Myrtle Beach all summer.<br />

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">They had not the heart like so many others</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"></span><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"></span><span style="font-family: inherit;">to throw her into the river. It's easy now -</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">and then - to trace the royalty of her blood,</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"></span><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">In fact, it's evident in all their faces -</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"></span><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"></span><span style="font-family: inherit;">everyone born into this realm is abandoned at birth.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Who, then, dares implant such a longing -</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"></span><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"></span><span style="font-family: inherit;">that each child should expect sheltering</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">and nourishment, indulgence and praise?</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"></span><span style="font-family: inherit;">O fellow children of God, heirs to the kingdom,</span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">When shall we demand </span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">with trembling voice and shaking fist</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">our due inheritance - and nothing less?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">The heart will hold its tongue</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"></span><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"></span><span style="font-family: inherit;">for millenniums, submissive to the senses,</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">to circumstances, ignorance and death,</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"></span><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"></span><span style="font-family: inherit;">but, it knows, it knows, it <i>knows</i> ...</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">and once it begins to unfold, to strengthen and rise,</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"></span><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"></span><span style="font-family: inherit;">our demeanor and likeness to the King become</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">ever more transparent, self-evident and undeniable.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">O children of God, assume the kingdom's throne</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">by becoming who you already are</span></div>

<div align="center">
<br /></div>
<br />
To love God in the most practical way is to love our fellow
beings.<br />
If we feel for others in the same way as we feel for
our own dear ones, we love God.
<br />
If, instead of seeing faults in others, we look within
ourselves, we are loving God.
<br />
If, instead of robbing others to help ourselves, we rob
ourselves to help others, we are loving God.
<br />
If we suffer in the sufferings of others and feel happy
in the happiness of others, we are loving God.
<br />
If, instead of worrying over our own misfortunes, we
think ourselves more fortunate than many many others, we are
loving God.
<br />
If we endure our lot with patience and contentment,
accepting it as His Will, we are loving God.
<br />
If we understand and feel that the greatest act of
devotion and worship to God is not to hurt or harm any of His
beings, we are loving God.
<br />
To love God as He ought to be loved, we must live for God
and die for God, knowing that the goal of life is to Love God,
and find Him as our own self.

<b style="text-align: left;"><i>From Bal Natu in GLIMPSES OF THE GOD-MAN</i></b><span style="text-align: left;">, pp. 395-396:</span></div>
</div>
<div style="color: #2f2f2f; font-family: 'Times New Roman', 'Lucida Bright', serif;">
<br />
On February 6 [1952], Baba dictated a profound, matchless message which was issued as the first "Life Circular". It combined the characteristics of the three main phases of His <i>Avataric</i> mission — the Old Life, the New Life, and the LIFE. I quote below a relevant passage from this particular message, relating to the invocation made by Baba in January 31. He stated:</div>
<blockquote style="color: #2f2f2f; text-align: -webkit-auto;">
<div style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', 'Lucida Bright', serif; text-align: left;">
For these last four months, according to ordinary human standards, and by ways and means known to me, I have tried my utmost for the achievement of <i>Manonash,</i> and I can say in all truth that I feel satisfied with the work done. This satisfaction is due to the feeling I have, of having regained my 'Old Life Meher Baba state,' yet retaining my 'New Life ordinary state'. I have regained the Knowledge, Strength and Greatness that I had in the Old life, and retain the ignorance, weaknesses, and humility of the New Life. This union of the 'old and new life states' has given birth to LIFE: Life that is eternally old and new.</div>
<div style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', 'Lucida Bright', serif; text-align: left;">
My efforts for <i>Manonash</i> have been positive and the result of <i>Manonash</i> will be positive. But the actual and concrete manifestation of this result, I leave entirely to the Divine Sanction; where, how, and when the result will be, I leave entirely to the Divine Decree.</div>
</blockquote>
<div style="color: #2f2f2f; font-family: 'Times New Roman', 'Lucida Bright', serif;">
And within a week the <i>mandali</i> had one of the most delightful surprises of their life with Baba. It was the celebration of Baba's "First Real Birthday" on February 12, 1952, at Meherazad in a very simple yet buoyant mood. By this time the partition had been taken down, and the four companions — Gustadjee, Baidul, Pendu, and Eruch — were allowed to greet and meet the rest of the men disciples in Baba's love. Kitty Davy who was staying with the women <i>mandali</i> at Meherazad wrote a short, graphic account of this festive occasion:</div>
<blockquote style="color: #2f2f2f; text-align: -webkit-auto;">
<div style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', 'Lucida Bright', serif; text-align: left;">
As Baba came over to our quarters at 5 a.m. on the morning of February 12th exactly to the minute, bells and gongs were rung, drums beaten and guns fired, and in the midst of all this tumult, the voices of the <i>mandali</i> rose clear and loud repeating the different names of God. The evening before, prayers were intoned and the <i>dhuni</i> (sacred fire) was lit and kept burning for twenty-four hours. Baba called this day, February 12, 1952, his "first real birthday", the beginning of the period called "Life", and He sent the following message by cable and otherwise to all His devotees:</div>
<div style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', 'Lucida Bright', serif; text-align: left;">
GOD'S BLESSINGS AND MY LOVE TO YOU ALL ON THIS, MY FIRST REAL BIRTHDAY.</div>

of the Angel Gabriel, who urges him to lead the people of Mecca to cast
aside the 300 idols of Kaaba and instead worship the one true God.
Speaking out against the corrupt political and military leaders who rule
Mecca, Mohammed and his followers struggle to worship God as they see
fit, which eventually leads them into exile in Medina. However, one day
God gives Mohammed a message to return to Mecca and take up arms against
their oppressors -- while recruiting as many followers as they can
along the way. With the help of his uncle, a brave warrior named Hamza
Anthony Quinn, Mohammed and his followers return to Mecca to liberate
the city in the name of God. The Message originally screened in the U.S. as Mohammed, Messenger of God
proved to be highly controversial during its production and initial
release. Unfounded rumors had it that Mohammed would not only be
depicted in the film, but that he was to be played by Charlton Heston or
Peter O'Toole. This resulted in angry protests by Muslim extremists,
until director Moustapha Akkad hired a staff of respected Islamic
clerics as technical advisors. The advisors butted heads with Akkad, and
they quit the production, which led the Moroccan government to withdraw
their permission to film in their country. In time, Akkad ended up
shooting on location in Libya under the sponsorship of Muammar Qaddafi,
which presented a whole new set of political and practical problems for
the filmmakers. Finally, when the film was scheduled to premier in the
U.S., another Muslim extremist group staged a siege against the
Washington D.C. chapter of the B'nai B'rith under the mistaken belief
that Anthony Quinn played Mohammed in the film, threatening to blow up
the building and its inhabitants unless the film's opening was
cancelled. The standoff was resolved without explosion or injuries,
though the film's American box office prospects never recovered from the
unfortunate controversy. The Message was shot in two versions, one in English and one in Arabic entitled Al-Ris-Alah, with different actors taking over some of the roles due to language requirements."
