Seven Names of God
This beautiful prayer-song-chant was composed by Meher Baba. The haunting melody supports the beautiful names of God: HARI – PARAMATMA – ALLAH – AHURAMAZDA – GOD – YEZDAN – HU. Meher Baba said all these names are one and that all religions of the world are like “beads on one string.” In this video we hear Meher Baba’s closest women disciples singing this poignant chant in His Tomb-Shrine from a recording most likely made in the 1980s.
