Anybody read any of the Meher Baba biography? There's twenty volumes - I've read the first five and they were/are awesome.

I tend to read guru bios. Autobiography of a Yogi started me off aeons ago. Anything that takes me back to antiquated India, Nepal, Tibet I can sit with for days and days ...

    Have you got the ISBN and/or publisher details?

      Hmmm, no. But one could google Meher Baba and get to the publisher, which would be the Maher baba Foundation (or something) in Myrtle Beach, SC.

        Paul and Gavco --

        a bit of a lag between the above and this; but fyi, the biography in question (written originally by Bhau Kalchuri in Hindi, then translated into English -- the 20 volumes you mention) is entitled LORD MEHER (in English -- or MEHER PRABHU in the original). The entire text (all 6,742 pages of it) is available online! -- see:

        www.lordmeher.org/index.jsp

        Regrettably, the online edition is not, so far, replete (as is the printed edition) with photographs (a notable feature of a notable work). But there's a lot of reading one can do there. And a search feature also can be used for research of various sorts.

        Information about Lord Meher can be found (among other places) here:

        cheers,
        d.i.

    I also love to read guru bios - I have a special added interest in Meher Baba because Gabriel Pascal, one of George Putnam's friends (George is Amelia Earhart's husband) knew Meher Baba and was supposed to make a movie about him. From what I read about Meher Baba, it seems that he is the real deal - I am very impressed with the way he lived his life and his teachings
