“”The world of the future will be very nice!
"But it is all zero!" someone spoke out. Baba
nodded:
“”Yes, but this is a supreme understanding. Even the
present is all zero, and therefore the future of zero can be nothing but zero! It is all zero! Nothing exists but God. One day my nearest disciples will
realize it. Now, the most you can do is to think, "Yes, nothing exists; all
is zero." But when you realize it, you will feel it!
During the period of his seclusion in Meherabad, Baba had
given the women a chant to sing every day, and also this four-line song,
" Tu Nirakar (You are Formless)":
“”You are Formless, Parvardigar, Ahuramazda, Allah,
Hu. You are Yezdan, You are God, Ahuramazda, Allah, Hu. You are Paramatma, Parabrahma; You are Almighty God, Ishwar. You are Parameshwar, Ezad, Ahuramazda, Allah, Hu.
Explaining it on the 11th, Baba stated:
“”Ezad means the One who is the first — God the
omnipotent, omniscient and omnipresent. There are millions of names of God, but
those that have a sound effect are few. Every sound you make, every thought you
think, good or bad, stays. But that sound which results in feeling has force
behind it which helps or hurts others.
All this noise of guns, bombs and airplanes, et cetera,
of war, will be utilized for the spiritual life of the world in the future. Yes,
it all stays. It cannot go. Where can it go? It is like water which evaporates,
forms into clouds and then comes down again as rain. But you all must sing the
song of God's names together with rhythm and timing to produce an
effect.
When the name of God is sung with feeling and rhythm,
it even has the effect of temporarily bringing down the majzoobs [from their
superconscious state]. Abdul Baba of Bombay is a known majzoob. He was always
unconscious — did not eat or drink anything, simply lay unconscious. But
when one singer would come to his door every day singing, "Allah hu,
Allah hu," in rhythm, within half an hour, Abdul Baba would come down to
consciousness, begin to look about, talk, eat, and then again merge into his
former state.
Baba began seeing the women more often in October. On
Sunday, 13 October 1940, he explained some more points about sanskaras, after
his second typed article had been read out:
“”Sanskaras must balance perfectly. This cannot be done
by a mathematical process, or it would be easy.
