The Truth About the Otts' Home at Meher Center

I decided it was time I wrote on my blog.  It has been a while since I have.  I want to clarify a misunderstanding which bothers me when I come across it.

I have serenity about most things, but I am frustrated when I find that some people (Meher Baba people) think that my parents were given their house or something.  That is untrue.  They purchased their land from Elizabeth Chapin Patterson and built their house.  They had and have a deed.  It was no free ride for them.  They built the road that goes into the center as well as their whole home and the additions on it, studios, etc..  It was raw land that they purchased.

I hope this clears things up a little.  I suppose it should not bother me that people do not know, but ignorance can cause misconceptions and wrong views as well as inaccurately informed biases.  

This is all I wanted to say.   Thank you always to my readers for following my blogs.
