When Avatar Meher Baba was at Meher Mount in 1956, He specifically did not give discourses because it was a day of relaxation. He explained to the group with Him, “Do not expect any discourse from me today. Yesterday, I told you all that you would play and feel relaxed” here.

However, at one point, He noted the following:

As you all become more intimate with me, with opportunities to come closer to me, all that is good and all that is bad within you comes out in sparks, as it were.

All the impressions of the past, the accumulation of past sanskaras [impressions] of all illusory things, which include both good and bad, come out. My proximity, the intimacy with me, just changes that mass of sanskaras, and sometimes you find sparks of good and bad flying out.
— Avatar Meher Baba
