Late Night Chat with Jeff: Stuart Baker, July 8, 2024, live on Baba Zoom

We have some informal chat after every arti, the "post-arti party"! But once a week, Jeff Wolverton joins us for some serious mining of the spiritual depths. Join us for conversation, more readings, songs, quotes - you never know what treasures will be uncovered!

Special Guest: Stuart Baker

Dear folks of Baba,

Tonight we have as our guest, Stuart Baker, who was part of the Boston Baba group that formed in the early 1970s. Prior to that, though, at the age of 15, he experienced a profound discontent, and what welled up inside him was an overwhelming desire for the deepest truth and happiness. He describes how he "silently made that desire known to the universe." At the time, he knew nothing about God. What followed unexpectedly was a spiritual awakening that began a gradual clearing away of his imperfections and impurities, which revealed to him a whole new dimension of himself. But after about a year, to his horror and grief, this divine experience was suddenly and gradually withdrawn with no explanation. He was left utterly empty and broken.

In 1970, Meher Baba entered his life and let Stuart know that He was one and the same as the nameless, formless God that he had experienced several years before. He put “one drop of His love" in Stuart’s heart and conveyed to him that "it was his turn to work his way back to Me" and wished him “good luck!” The last 54 years have been that journey.

Stuart will be happy to answer any questions as he shares his story, and at the end, he will lead us in a brief heart-centered meditation on Baba that he has led Baba lovers on over the last several years. This evening will be a very meaningful glimpse into Stuart’s interior life which began with a profound awakening followed by years of inner work which has led him to where he is today.

“If the door of your Soul were to open for an instant,

you would see that the heart of every existent thing

is your intimate friend!”

Rumi

In His love, Jeff
