Don't worry be happy . . .

Happy Birthday shout out to Merwan Sheriar Irani (February 25, 1894 – January 31, 1969) and George Harrison (February 25, 1943 – November 29, 2001).

Merwan Sheriar Irani, better known as Meher Baba or The Awakener was an Indian mystic and spiritual master. He attracted many followers around the world throughout his lifetime.

In 1925 he spoke for the last time and maintained a silence for 44 years, until his death.

He did continue to communicate, at first by means of an alphabet board, and later by signs and gestures.

"The disease of selfishness in mankind will need a cure that is not only universal in its application but drastic in nature. Selfishness is so deep-rooted that it can be eradicated only if it is attacked from all sides. Real peace and happiness will dawn spontaneously when there is a purging of selfishness." - Meher Baba

"Don't worry, be happy." - Meher Baba

George Harrison was a musician, singer-songwriter and film producer, best known as a member of The Beatles.

"It's being here now that's important. There's no past and there's no future. Time is a very misleading thing. All there is ever, is the now. We can gain experience from the past, but we can't relive it; and we can hope for the future, but we don't know if there is one." - George Harrison

“When you've seen beyond yourself, then you may find, peace of mind is waiting there.” - George Harrison

"Love one another." - George Harrison (His last words)
