Tässä otteessa puheesta vuodelta 2004, Avatar Adi Da käsittelee sitä, että Adidam Ruchiradamin Todellisuus-Tie ei perustu uskomuksiin tai tekniikoihin, jotka tavoittelevat itsensä parantamista, hallintaa tai toteutusta "lopputuloksena". Sen sijaan, vaistonomainen tai sanaton tunnistus Avatar Adi Da Samrajin Olotilasta annetaan heti, kun yhteys Häneen muodostuu. Siitä lähtien, Tie avautuu itsensä todistavana heräämisprosessina, joka paljastuu joka hetkellä, kun olento tunnistaa Adi Dan Jumalaisen Läsnäolon ja Tilan. Sen pohjalta yksilö liikuttuu kääntymään sydämellään Avatar Adi Dan puoleen Tietoisen Valon Vapauttavana Olentona ja Läsnäolona.
This video excerpt, "Adidamin Tie ei perustu uskomuksiin" ("The Way of Adidam Is Not About Beliefs") is from an Avataric Discourse given by Adi Da Samraj at Adi Da Samrajashram, on October 20, 2004.
In this excerpt, Avatar Adi Da speaks to the fact that The Reality Way of Adidam Ruchiradam is not a system of beliefs or techniques for seeking self-improvement, mastery, or realization as an “end result”. Rather, intuitive or tacit recognition of Avatar Adi Da’s State of Being is given from the initial contact with Him. From then, the Way unfolds as a self-authenticating process of awakening that is revealed in each moment of recognition of Adi Da’s Divine Presence and State. On that basis, one is heart-moved to turn to Avatar Adi Da as the Liberating Being and Presence of Conscious Light.tags: FinnishAvataric Discourse

The Five Reality-Teachings poster: AdiDaUpClose length: 03:30 date added: September 3, 2023 language: English views: 729; views this month: 44; views this week: 8 As part of His recitation of The Happenine Book in April, 2006, at Adi Da Samrajashram, Adi Da recites "The Five Reality-Teachings". A chanted version is available here.
THE FIVE REALITY-TEACHINGS
Notice this:
1. You are not the one who wakes, or dreams, or sleeps.
2. You Are the actionless and formless Mere Witness of the three common states — of waking, dreaming and sleeping — and of all the apparent contents and “experiences” associated with the three common states, of waking, and of dreaming, and of sleeping.
3. You are not the body, or the doer of action, or the doer of even any of the body’s actions or functions.
4. You are not the mind, or the thinker, or the doer of even any of the actions or functions of mind or of body-mind.
5. No matter what arises — whether as or in the state of waking, or of dreaming, or of sleeping — you Are the actionless, and formless, and thought-free Mere Witness of attention itself, and of every apparent “object” of attention, and of any and every state of “experience”, and of the entirety of whatever and all that arises.
Always intensively “consider” these Five Reality-Teachings.
Always intensively observe and notice every moment of your “experience” — whether waking, dreaming, or sleeping — and, thus and thereby, “consider” and test and directly prove these Five Reality-Teachings in the moment-to-moment of your every kind and state of “experience”.
Using the Shamanistic traditions of North America to illustrate right relationship to the invisible, energy realms of existence, Avatar Adi Da urgently calls everyone to overcome the addiction to the false doctrine of materialism. Free and full participation in the energy dimension of existence, Avatar Adi Da says, provides the necessary foundation for restoring balance to the Earth-world, and for ecstatic embrace of the Reality-Realizing Process in His Divine Company.
ADI DA: Aren’t you still . . . limited by this materialistic “point of view”, such that you do not yet feel free to accept the Reality of the Very Divine (and the spirit-“world” itself) in all of Its dimensions? . . . You have to break the spell of the doctrines of your own time that limit your consciousness to the material domain. . . . You have to Wake Up.
During the period when this Discourse was given, Avatar Adi Da regularly responded to devotees’ presentations on specific titles from The Basket of Tolerance—the comprehensive bibliography developed by Avatar Adi Da that covers all significant aspects of the collective wisdom of humankind. The Basket of Tolerance is not only a tool for understanding the collective tradition of humankind as a single “Great Tradition”, but also for understanding the unique nature of Avatar Adi Da’s Offering—which demonstrates continuity with the Great Tradition, and simultaneously perfectly transcends and completes it.
Avatar Adi Da organized the titles on The Basket of Tolerance according to His “mapping” of the seven stages of life—which are related to the gross (physical), subtle (energic), and causal (“root”) dimensions of the human structure. This Discourse includes Avatar Adi Da’s response to the book Black Elk Speaks (by John Neihardt), representing a significant individual from the North American Shamanistic traditions. This book appears on the “fifth stage list” of The Basket of Tolerance, which includes materials associated with the view of the subtle dimension of existence. Avatar Adi Da also references Leo Tolstoy’s The Kingdom of God Is Within You—a title from the “social Wisdom” section of The Basket of Tolerance—representing an expression of physically-oriented social idealism of the first three stages of life.
A shorter form of this Discourse was published on cassette tape in 1988. With this audio publication, the extended form is available for the first time. This recording has been digitally remastered. It is an archival recording with some quality variations.tags: CD
