A Bridge To The Master

By Oswald Hall. Softcover, 349 pages.  A Collection of art, poetry, and essays.  Oswald Hall (1917-1991) was one of the first, if not the first seeker of God to recognize Meher Baba as a Perfect Master and later as the Avatar in Australia.  "Oswald Hall was a dynamic person who lifted you up with his love and enthusiasm for life and art and poetry and… everything. He seemed to have some knowledge about most things and his description of Meher Baba when Baba came to his house in Eltham in 1956 was the nail that finally hit the head of any doubt I may have had about Baba at that time. For the following twenty years over many late night drinks and smokes we discussed and argued about almost every subject in the universe, but mainly about Baba and the great Sufi poets, wine and painting and culture and our own poetry and writing and his wonderful paintings that filled his house, mainly of Meher Baba (many of these are lost to us today)." --Paul Smith, from the Introduction.
