I first heard of Meher Baba in 1973 and became fascinated by this strange holy man who claimed to be God. I had the privilege of meeting many of his followers over the years and I was struck by their humility and honesty about how they had lived in relationship with Meher Baba for many years. He seems to be the real deal!!! GOD SPEAKS is a great book. It is the ultimate book on Vedanta and Sufi Mysticism. It offers a wonderful and logical explanation for all the diversity in nature, as God, the infinite, experiencing himself through all possible finite forms. I've read this book many times - as a follower of Meher Baba, and as a doubter of Meher Baba. In both scenarios the book still holds up as being one of the finest works of its kind. As one reviewer said, this book is not proposed as opinions or theories, but as the unabashed truth about how reality works!! If you're skeptical I'm not surprised. But I'd recommend this book to a hardened atheist as much as I'd recommend it to a born-again Christian. This book challenges your thinking and your views of reality. I'd also recommend Discourses Both books are classics.

I read this book once . These are truly the words of the god . A normal human being cannot conceive or write such words . It is humbling , i could only hold it with utmost reverence also feel quite blessed to know the way the gods creation works as said by him .Definitely improves the out look of the world . After spending decades trying to rationally explain away every thing that happens in the world , this book lead me back to faith and devotion .

Attempting to "rate" a book such as this is a very humbling task since it is truly beyond such Earthbound concepts as "good" or "bad'.This book is Meher Baba's definative work, the words of an Enlightened Master.If you're ready to move on from the plethora of "Spirituality Lite" books in the New Age section of your favorite book store, this is the one book that you need to read. A truly profound and extremely challenging work by a true Avatar

WOW!!! If there is one spiritual book that you should read, it is this one. It explains everything that you ever wanted to know - period. It anwered all my questions regarding life and its purpose. In order to fully leverage the content, Discources should be read first.

I was exposed to this book first by Avisa during medical school 1998. The book has changed my life. It helped me to cope with life problem much easier. It makes you understand life better, what is death and what happens to us when we die? Without purpose, life is meaningless. you become less materialistic. You can cope better with death of the loved one. I think all of us should read this book. I refer to it as a solution to problems. The book will be bring meaning to all the religion, Koran, Bible and Jew. The more time you read the book the more you get out of it, they say one must read it at least five times. I love this book, there is lots of love. God bless God in man.
