DISCOURSES & TALKS BY MEHER BABA

COMPARING YOGIS TO SADGURUS

3rd June, 1925

On 3 June, while comparing yogis to Sadgurus, Baba made the following prophetic remarks:

Some yogis in India can turn iron into gold, but it is useless because it serves no purpose. Even these powerful yogis have to pass through ages of cycles of births and deaths to attain the state of a Sadguru.

The powers of the Sadguru are unlimited, yet he rarely uses them. The Sadguru can even bring entire new worlds into being — so great are his powers! Compared with that, what is turning iron into gold?

The Perfect Masters and other spiritual authorities are now working on a terrible problem. The world is threatened with a war of great magnitude — a war never before seen or known of in the past — in which every nation on earth will be involved. The struggle will be for gold. But the final large-scale struggle will bring a good result.

A great Prophet will come forward with his divine message. Then, hundreds of thousands of people will throw themselves at his feet, listen to him and study his teachings. The time will come, mark my words.
