The mystery and triumph of Glimpses of Guruprasad lies in its delay in getting published. Meher Baba or the Compassionate Father is considered the greatest spiritual Master of this generation. He observed silence from 10 July 1925 until He dropped His body on 31 January 1969 and His spiritual work in simplicity has endeared many from all over the world. Meher Baba stayed at the palatial residence called Guruprasad at Pune where for many years, He held numerous public darshans and private meetings with His followers. Meher Baba took a keen interest in explaining the spiritual ethos behind His discourses, ghazals and quawallis sung by His lovers as well as played the part of an intimate companion concerned with the day to day happenings of His disciples.

Dr. Hoshang Bharucha, an ardent Baba lover, took on the onus of publishing these occurrences at Guruprasad. This book was to be released in 1994 on the occasion of Meher Baba's 100th birth anniversary. However, Dr. Bharucha took ill, passed away a year later, and the book was delayed due to inordinate coordination difficulties. Many years later, Dr. Bharucha's dream and promise to the Meher Baba family to publish his diaries is bearing fruit through this edition. Read, savour and relive Meher Baba's love, grace and Godliness through Glimpses of Guruprasad.

It gives me immense joy to write a few words for this much awaited book Glimpses of Guruprasad by Dr. Hoshang Bharucha. The book that should have seen the light of the day more than two decades ago is now finally published after his passing away by his dear daughter Dilmeher. I am sure Hoshang, now in Baba's love would be extremely happy to know that his vision of spreading Beloved Meher Baba's name, love and divinity to all has become a reality.
I have known Hoshang, a medical doctor from Navsari, Gujarat ever since I came into the divine fold of Avatar Meher Baba. He was a devout Baba lover ever ready to please his master Beloved Meher Baba and made it his mission to bring all the people in his contact to Meher Baba.
Beloved Meher Baba showered His boundless love on all those who visited Him in Guruprasad with His darshan and intimate company. This book is a collection of different recordings of Baba lovers all over the world who shared precious, unforgettable and treasured moments with Meher Baba. The book will refresh memories of people who were fortunate to be in Beloved Baba's company in Guruprasad. It will also be a valuable guide for people new to the Baba fold to learn of Meher Baba.
