Universal Sufism Part 2: For the Love of Baba

from Mystical America · host Isaac Hill

Good evening friends, tonight I bring you the long-awaited second episode of the Universal Sufism trilogy. Last episode we spoke about the Sufi mystic Inayat "Hazrat" Khan, but in this episode, there's a hot new guru in town- the self-proclaimed avatara (divine incarnation) Meher Baba, aka "The Ancient One." After learning about Baba's biography and theology, we'll delve into some of the spiritual drama between Murshida Rabia Martin and Murshid Samuel Lewis, two major followers of Meher Baba and Inayat Khan respectively. Along the way, we'll also get into some more high strangeness around Murshid Samuel Lewis's intelligence connections and paranoid anti-communist/McCarthyite ramblings. I'll be completely honest with you all here and just let you know that while this episode is filled with strange and groovy explorations of enigmatic figures and psychic warfare, I believe the next episode, the final episode in this series is going to be where it's really at and is quickly shaping up to be one of the best episodes yet. This one is just to prepare your eardrums for what's to come. So please, keep your third eye and sixth senses turned towards the vortex- resisting the urge to look away and tune into tonight's very special episode of Mystical America.  Samuel Lewis Archive: https://www.ruhaniat.org/index.php/archive-home Email me @ [email protected] :)
