Baba and the Future - Part 1

First talk in Chris Ott's 11-part series Baba and the Future.

Correction:
The quote about a transition from reason to intuition (which I thought was the 1st discourse in Discourses) is in Meher Baba Journal, vol. 1, no. 1. p. 4. It is on p. 268 of the 1987 edition of Discourses, in the discourse ‘The Avatar.’

The quote about 70 years is in the online Lord Meher, p. 4269, and in the ©1986 print edition with identical wording on p. 5296.

January 19, 2018 at the Circle Center in Myrtle Beach. First in a series of 15 talks. The book I'm writing is planned for early 2020. The title and publication date is not set.
