In ‘Smash The Mirror’ from Tommy, his mother threatens to shatter the mirror to make her son respond to his own reflection. “Do you hear or fear or do I smash the mirror?” Tommy’s mother can be seen berating her son in the top left. On the opposite side we see the shattered mirror and a train arriving and dispersing it’s passengers – Meher Baba’s followers – and being greeted by the messiah. The white horse of Uffington, again representing Meher Baba, can be seen in the landscape in the centre of the picture.
