SPEAKING OF MEHER BABA...

Some years ago in India, after I'd spent a part of the morning sitting in Avatar Meher Baba's Samhadi, imbibing His Presence and Love, I walked down the hill to the Pilgrim Center where many visitors to Meherabad stayed, picked up a guitar and wrote this song.  Well it might be more accurate to say that the song wrote itself, taking shape quickly and easily—and fully expressing not just how I felt that day, but how I continue to feel about Life, the Universe and Everything.  It's called "Time For Love."  Enjoy!

  1. That's one of my favorite songs from the disc (although, full disclosure, the whole album is beautiful and I almost always listen to it as a whole rather than in song-sized snippets).

    1. Thanks so much, Mike. Working on that CD was one of the creative joys of my life. One of these days I'll get around to recording all the other songs that I've written in the years since.

    2. That would be a beautiful gift to the world (although between your first album and all of the wonderful stories you've spun through the years, you have already been a great blessing to the world).

      It's possible that the video isn't available in your country. The song (and all the songs on the CD) are available via iTunes and Google Play.

      Thanks for your interest!
