Nothing makes me more happy than the opportunities to bow down to God in all these forms. I like bowing down to the people rather than being bowed down to. To serve and worship God all around me is closest to my heart.
In the Fiery Free Life, all the frailties of the ego-life are completely consumed, and there is complete emancipation from all wants, desires and temptations. And the result of this Fiery Free Life will make the world understand that Meher Baba and everyone is one with God.
After this message, darshan would begin. People would go to Baba in rows one by one, and Baba would give them prasad for hours on end. Yeshwant Rao would sit on one side and hand Baba the fruit to distribute. The dais was heaped with flowers, coconuts, bananas and coins, and Baba was covered with garlands. Eruch would frequently remove the garlands and put them aside as Baba, like a machine, distributed prasad. When the crowds were especially unwieldy, he would give prasad with both hands, his sweet smile pervading the darshan pavilion.
On such occasions, in utter disregard of all inconveniences and personal fatigue for himself and his men, the thought uppermost in his mind was that every man, woman and child should receive prasad and have his touch. Baba would often remark:
"When people have to stand in line for hours on end waiting their turn to come to me only for a moment, shouldn't we be willing to put up with a little suffering?"
Besides his explanation of the Fiery Free Life, seven other messages (dictated by Baba in October at Meherazad) were printed in different languages as a booklet, which was distributed among the crowd gathered at each place. Only one message was read at each program. Besides such messages, at times Baba would convey something of particular interest to the crowd through the alphabet board, which would be relayed over the loudspeaker.
One of Meher Baba's prepared messages was titled "Life Eternal":
Without beginning and without end, the caravan of evolutionary creation marches on from the Immeasurable to the Immeasurable. Most persons on the way get caught up in the transient immediate, and evolve by conscious or unconscious reactions to it. Some can detach themselves from the transient immediate. But since their detachment is only intellectual, they enjoy freedom only in the realm of the limited intellect, which now tries to comprehend the past, or anticipate the future, as best as is allowed by the limitations under which it works.
