A Gateway to the Divine
Meher Mount is a 172-acre universal spiritual center dedicated to Avatar Meher Baba.
“The significance of Meher Mount is that it’s a place to know God. The experience one has here leaves something behind, footprints deep in our souls,” noted Ray, a long-time visitor.
Meher Mount is a universal spiritual center dedicated to Meher Baba who welcomed people of all faiths — or no faith at all.
Visitors come to Meher Mount for pilgrimage, for celebrating Divine Love and Oneness, for loving God through nature, and for service.
“Meher Baba wishes to touch each individual with love in a way that is as unique as each person,” observed volunteer Byron.
“He has provided us with a gateway to our higher selves through His Presence. The people and places He has touched can help us feel His Presence and bring us closer to Him.”
Meher Mount is one of those chosen places – it is a gateway to the Divine.
“Whenever I visit a place and stay there, however short a time, its spiritual atmosphere becomes greatly elevated,” Meher Baba noted.
“True sanctity does not lie in the dead walls of brick and stone or even in the waters of the sacred rivers, but in the living beings who fill the environment with the fire of their devotion, love and worship, and in the great spiritual forces released by the Masters during their stay there,” explained Meher Baba.
Meher Mount is the heart of each person who comes to visit.
“What I found at Meher Mount,” said first-time visitor Irene, “was a gigantic space, breathing, moving, and changing, outside human grasp and habit patterns.
“All one might envisage of a spiritual center was not there — no discourses, no meditation sessions, no designated prayer spots, no singing.
“I stood looking at this heaven’s huge landscape, witnessing moments – which would never repeat themselves – and inadvertently entering a form of meditation.”
“I am so happy Beloved Baba Graced us with Meher Mount and love the times I have been there.”
