Bananawalas as per Meher Baba..

[Guest guest]

Dear Friends,

 

Satish has kindly brought to my attention/consciousness, Meher Baba.

In looking up the glossary presented by Frank Davis on the following

website: http://www.avatarmeherbaba.org/erics/glossa.html, I found a

term with the following definition:

 

walla (or wala): Used as a suffix to indicate one's trade or role.

Literally means' men".

 

A suffix denoting an agent, doer, owner, posessor, keeper, or

inhabitant.

 

*as in guy or gal in the context of: A txi guy (a tongawalla), that

blonde gal, the motivated one, etc. Right now you're a

readingwalla. It has been said by Bhau that this generation just

after Baba's dropping the physical form who've been drawn to Baba

are "Bananawal"; i.e., reincarnations of those many who had received

Baba's banan prasad from the numerous mass darshan programs in the

last life.

 

 

Satish: can you tell me who or what is "Bhau"? Can you give me a

definition for this word?

 

I found the above VERY interesting about bananawalas, as one of the

things I bake a LOT of is banana bread...one friend recently told me

that it was the best that she had ever tasted!!! Oftentimes I pray

(chant the Mruthanjaya (healing) Mantra as suggested by Sri

Karunamayi) while putting together the ingredients for the bread.

Like She says, when one chants a mantra while cooking, those sacred

vibrations go into the food and it is very good/auspicious.

 

Also, there is a *very* good story/explanation given on:

http://www.meherbabatheavatar.com/incl.htm where in a scientist asks

Baba how it could be that the infinite can be in a finite form.

The story is entitled, "Baba and the Scientist", source: Panj Pyare

by D. V. Balakrishna Meher)

 

Blessings,

 

Kathy

Dear Friends and Dear Kathy,

Bhau kalchuri is the name of the person who is, at present,

Chairman of Avatar Meher Baba Perpitual Public Cheritable Trust

(AMBPPCT for short). In vernaculars Hindi language "-wala"(masculine

singuler "wale" being plural) and "-wali" ((faminin singuler, plural

being "waliyan") suffixes for occupational personal pronoun. Meher

Baba loved humour and wanted for his fellow persons to keep a smiling

and joyous posture.

Love,

Satish
