DISCOURSES & TALKS BY MEHER BABA

IF  YOU  COMMIT  MISTAKES

24 October, 1928

After dinner Baba gathered the boys, and explained to them:

Just listen to me. If you commit mistakes I will forgive them not once but a million times, but do your best to do as I say. If you obey I will see to your progress.

Never be afraid of me. Suppose a child while playing puts a stone in his mouth and the mother sees it. Do you think she would stand passive at the sight? She would do her best to take the stone from his mouth or beat him. In the same way I am the mother of the universe, especially of you, and so what reason is there to fear anything? Never fear; I won't send you to Meher Ashram as I sent the other boys. I will see that you tread the Path.
