Summary
editMeher Baba in Willesden, North West London, April 15, 1932, viewing a newsreel clip of himself at Paramount Studios.
"On April 15th, Paramount Film Studio sent two cars to bring Baba and his group to Willesden to see the film that was taken of him dictating from the alphabet board and being read out by Charles Purdom. Other companies expressed interest in filming Baba, but he would not agree to it. After watching the newsreel, Baba sent word to the manager that he was pleased with the results. When they were about to leave, the manager approached Baba and said, 'It would have been good if Mahatma Gandhi was here with you in the film, but Gandhi did not want himself filmed when he was in England. He is averse to all that is modern.' Baba replied to the man, 'Modern or ancient, there is always One Infinite Existence prevailing everywhere – in the arts, in science, in beauty, in nature – in every phase of life.'" (Lord Meher, 1986, p. 1571)
