The Silent Messenger charts the life of Meher Baba, the Indian spiritual Master who famously declared: “Don’t worry, be happy,” and “I have come not to teach, but to awaken." Meher Baba's life and teachings move through Vedantism, Sufism, Christianity and Buddhism. Uniquely, Baba gave all this to the world whilst remaining silent for 44 years. The Meher Baba Association presents the final book by Sir Tom and Lady Dorothy Hopkinson, which depicts the extraordinary facts of Meher Baba’s life and work, illustrated by judiciously chosen excerpts from his teachings and the insights of many of those who were closest to him.

"Silent Teachings of Meher Baba" is a compendium of discourses given by Meher Baba in the early thirties. A part of the book is devoted to conversations with Meher Baba during his travels in Europe in the same period.

On January 31, 1969, Meher Baba dropped his physical body. We have recently passed the fiftieth anniversary of that event occurring. There are two significant Avataric responsibilities that were to be set in motion based on Baba leaving our physical presence. First, while still living, Meher Baba was to 'break his silence'. He had begun his silence on July 10,1925 and he continued in that silence for the remainder of his life. He made the promise that he would break his silence before he left us. Did he break that promise to us or did he actually break his silence while still living? The second responsibility is related to his Manifestation. With the dropping of his body, it was to set in motion his Manifestation. What does that mean and is it actually happening now? This book develops a theory that says yes, Meher Baba did break his silence. This theory also provides a possible date for when it did occur and provides insight into what this means for us living today. The book also presents a theory related to Meher Baba's Manifestation and how that also is impacting upon our daily lives as we continue to live through his full Manifestation.
