This Listserv is dedicated to Meher Baba. It was created to provide a forum
for followers of Meher Baba to share experiences, ideas, post news and events, and to
discuss the life and teachings of Avatar Meher Baba. All are welcome to join. Please feel
free to post questions about Meher Baba to the readership. There are three lists.
The baba list is for
announcements and the like, and any follow-up commentary on those announcements is sent to
the baba-talk list.
That way if you only want the announcements you need only subscribe to baba list. If you want the commentary and so
forth, you subscribe to baba-talk
list. If you want both, you subscribe to both lists.
If you want only a single Baba quote with no other traffic whatsoever, subscribe
to "quotes only" by contacting an administrator for assistance.
