If someone was not familiar and would not answer, he would be looking into his or her eyes and saying their part with a sweet smile on his face.

For the last few years of his life, Baba Khosrow wouldn't allow people to adore him by hugging him or kissing him, but during that last 47 days that he was in bed in that tavern was a chance for Baba Lovers to be close to him and his pain and suffering was his last dedication and selfless service to the Beloved.

He also had promised us that if someday he united with our Beloved Baba, first he would reach out his hand to all the lovers of the Truth.

Always if someone would praise or even respect him, he wouldn't allow it and would point out to Beloved Meher Baba's picture and say "When you have 100% don't go to any lower than that".

Also he would say "I am just an old bear. You should hold tight to Beloved Meher Baba's daman and don't let it fall. All your respect, compassion and love should be laid down on that supreme form of Love and Lover".

Baba Khosrow was right, but we also knew for a fact that he was our Beloved Meher Baba's burning torch which was giving light in Iran. In late 1920s when Beloved Baba was closing the schools in Meherabad, said those were just like scaffoldings for His real work. Perhaps the students were the structure who later did Beloved Meher Baba's spiritual work in the world.

There is no end in talking abut Baba Khosrow. The same way that there was no end to his love for Beloved of all Avatar Meher Baba.

On May 25 2007 he made his last trip to India. Beloved of all Avatar Meher Baba had called His last student of Prem Ashram (after 81 years, at the age of 89, with Student visa, back to his old school.) Not even one step of that trip was done with Baba Khosrow's own will. Only Beloved Baba himself knows what inner spiritual work had to be done.

Baba Lovers and students who lived close to Baba Khosrow say that selfless service, compassion and love that Baba Khosrow had was very unusual and unique. We were witnessing that some days Baba Khosrow's tavern (his house) would be filled with people who had come with their backpacks full of problems and questions, and they would leave like a free bird.

 This would happen all through the day and sometimes he wouldn't have a chance to prepare his lunch and have it. But still, with that old and brittle body, would keep talking and with the Name of Beloved Meher Baba, would solve their problems. Most of the people who would come to him were quite strangers who had heard about Baba Khosrow and they weren't Baba Lovers. That wouldn't matter to him and he would do his best in helping them. Beloved Meher Baba, in one of His darshans, asked the Mandali to find and bring Khosrow to Him. They did find Khosrow in the middleof thousands of people and brought him to Baba. That was a very special moment for the old Prem Ashram student. Beloved Meher Baba gave him a private darshan. Baba Khosrow explained "after that moment most of the obstacles of his path were taken away by the Beloved."

 Baba Khosrow was the true messenger of his Beloved Meher Baba. He lived a life as it was his Beloved's wish. Once in his life with just one quote from a Baba book, he got almost naked and gave away all his worldly possessions. His living place (the tavern) was his late wife's lifetime saving that he never wished to be in his name, but he did wish it to remain Baba's center in Shiraz forever. The only tavern for Baba-lovers in Shiraz and a lot of other cities in Iran.

Beloved Meher Baba's Wish: Spread My Message of Love. Those who truly Love Me are my "centers" in the world. Let each Baba-lover, wherever he or she may be, be a "Baba's Center" personified, radiating the eternal Message of Love Divine, living a life of love, sacrifice and honesty.

 When you spread My Eternal Message of Love to others, show them first that you really love Me. Do not merely make them read my books and messages. Do more – live such a life of love, sacrifice, forgiveness and tolerance that others will love me.

 And Baba Khosrow was such a pure and compassionate lover that his love and compassion for Beloved Meher Baba had made him a center for his Beloved in this world. He had a pure childlike heart and an old man's wisdom and his mind was under his control to the last moment of his life. Like other students of Beloved Meher Baba, he radiated the eternal Message of Love Divine, by living a life of love, sacrifice and honesty.

 Every day standing in front of Beloved Baba's picture he would recite this couplet from Hafez:

 جان می کنم نثار و خجلت همی برم                      زین نقد کم عیار که کردم نثار دوست

 I sacrifice my soul and I am so embarrassed because this is such a worthless sacrifice for the Beloved.

 Then Baba Khosrow would explain to us that sacrificing our soul for the Beloved Meher Baba could be done by living a life of selfless service filled with love and compassion.

 He lived in Shiraz but his students whom were from all over Iran are using his path of love as their guide. Hafez says:

 سخن عشق نه آن است که آید به زبان                     ساقیا می ده و کوتاه کن این گفت و شنود

 It’s impossible to talk about or discuss Love, Saki, pour us wine and let's cut short this conversation.

 Eventually there is nothing to say, because as Beloved Meher Baba says: "What is Real is given and received in silence."

 Thanks to Beloved Avatar Meher Baba and as Baba Khosrow would say:

 Avatar Meher Baba Ki Jai, True Friend forever.
