Welcome to Meher Baba Manifesting

Avatar Meher Baba

I was Rama, I was Krishna, I was this One, I was that One,

and now I am Meher Baba.

When I break my Silence, a great push will be given to humanity.

My Word of words will touch the hearts of all mankind.

Meher Baba declared that he is the Avatar of our age: the Savior, Messiah, Christ, Rasul (Prophet), Buddha—the World Teacher awaited by all of humanity.

This site gathers together published statements of Meher Baba about his Manifestation as the Avatar of the Age, including the Silence he observed from July 10, 1925, and the promised breaking of his Silence, which he said would be the signal for his public Manifestation.

The quotations from Meher Baba are drawn from an unpublished collection edited by David Carter under the title Meher Baba: The Word. The chapters from his book correspond to six areas here titled Principal Statements, Speaking in the Heart, Baba’s Suffering & Silence, The New Humanity, Meaning of Baba’s Silence, and The Word of Words. We are grateful to David Carter for granting permission to share his research and writing here, including his essay on Baba’s Silence. (All words of Meher Baba are © Avatar Meher Baba Perpetual Public Charitable Trust.) We have also added further quotes that were not in David’s original manuscript.

In addition, the site is also a forum for viewpoints, beliefs, speculations, intuitions, visions, and other commentary about the Advent and Manifestation of Avatar Meher Baba. These will be collected in two areas of the site:

Views & Visions: We suggest you start by reading David Carter’s essay on the breaking of Baba’s silence, which is a good summary of his anthology as well as his own opinions and beliefs on this topic. We also have a fascinating visionary interpretation by Jim Auster and commentary from various writers, and we hope that readers will submit items for possible addition to this section. Different interpretations of Baba’s Manifestation are possible, since he issued seemingly mysterious or contradictory statements about it.

Kenneth Lux, who has written on this topic, has divided Baba-lovers into two basic camps (though there are further possible subdivisions): Suddenists, who believe that a world-awakening event signaling Baba’s public Manifestation is yet to come, and Gradualists, who believe that the Silence has already been broken but that its world-transforming effects are unfolding gradually. We hope that reading the material on this site will help you to decide for yourself what it all means!

Reviews & Readings: Short reviews or notices of books and other media (such as DVDs) relevant to Baba’s Silence and Manifestation.

Manifestation Watch: This blog-like section features “signs of the times” that we find in the news (including humorous ones), appearing to confirm Baba’s predictions about the Manifestation and the New Humanity. Feel free to contribute items in the form of links, short summaries, or photos.

About Meher Baba: If you are new to Meher Baba, please see this page for a brief biography and suggested readings.

When I break My Silence, the world will come to know

that I am the One whom they were waiting for.

I had to come, and I have come.

I am the Ancient One.
