Fragment filmu Świadome Światło, w którym Adi Da mówi o starożytnym greckim micie o Narcyzie i o tym, jak jest to doskonała metafora dla zilustrowania założenia odrębnego "ja" i charakterystycznego sposobu dramatyzowanej tej, z góry zakładanej separacji przez wszystkie istoty ludzkie.

"Mit Narcyza" ("The Myth of Narcissus") is an excerpt from the film, Conscious Light. Adi Da talks about the ancient Greek myth about Narcissus, and how it is a perfect metaphor for illustrating the assumption of a separate "I" and the characteristic way this pre-assumed separation is dramatized by all human beings.

"Adidam non è un modo religioso" ("Adidam is Not a Religious Way") is a video excerpt from an Avataric Discourse, given by Adi Da on January 21, 2005, at Adi Da Samrajashram.
ADI DA: "Religion" belongs to a domain of efforts that are "point-of-view"-based, cosmological in nature, associated with myths of apparent Reality as perceived. None of that has anything to do with the Realization of Reality Itself.tags: Avataric Discourse, DVDItalian

Ote varhaisesta keskustelusta Avatar Adi Da Samrajin kanssa, 29. kesäkuuta 1973.
Watching this video excerpt will transport viewers to a special moment in Adidam history. July 29, 1973, was the day Avatar Adi Da left Los Angeles for a Yajna (sacred journey) through India and Nepal. He returned as “Bubba Free John”, His first spontaneously revealed Teaching-Name. Thus, this was the last Discourse He gave as “Franklin Jones” (Avatar Adi Da’s birth name).
ADI DA: Satsangissa, aidon hengellisen elämän prosessissa, ei tapahdu niin, että kohoat rajattoman korkealle, etkä enää koskaan laskeudu. Sinusta tulee täysin yhtä sen olotilan kanssa, joka on ennen huippuja ja pohjia, ennen Jumalaa ja paholaista, ennen henkeä ja lihaa, kaikkia noita vastakohtia. Sinun toteutettu luonteesi tulee olemaan todellisuuden autuus Aidossa Jumalassa. Yksilö alkaa huomaamaan omassa tietoisuudessaan ja elämässään — sillä satsanging prosessi ei toimi ainoastaan subjektiivisesti, se ei ole taipumustesi ymmärtämystä tunteiden, ajatusten, unien ja sen kaltaisen kautta — se on sitäkin, mutta se myös ilmenee ulkoisesti, jatkuvasti luoden olosuhteita elämässäsi, aivan kuten se luo sisäisiä olotiloja. Eli yksilö alkaa huomaamaan, että nousun ja laskun kierre, kierre itse ei mene mihinkään. Siitä huolimatta kierteessä ilmenevät ominaisuudet eivät enää aiheuta sekaannusta. Elämän ja tietoisuuden ominaisuudet ovat edelleen havaittavissa, mutta jossain kohtaa ne lakkaavat olemasta pulma.tags: DVDFinnish

W tym unikalnym dyskursie Adi Da Samraj rozważa, jak duchowa transformacja człowieka jest związana z różnymi aspektami ciała fizycznego. Odnosi się również do tego, że prawdziwy proces duchowy nie opiera się na wysiłku lub zwiększeniu ilości doświadczeń, nawet w wymiarze mistycznym. W prawdziwym procesie duchowym, doświadczenie we wszystkich jego formach (fizycznej i fenomenalnej), muszą być przekroczone.
In this excerpt, "Nie ma nikogo, kto mógłby się poddać" ("There Is No One To Surrender"), Adi Da Samraj considers the spiritual transformation of a human being, and states of the body-mind. The real spiritual process is not based on effort or having more (or greater) experiences, even in the mystical dimension. In the true spiritual process, experience, in all its forms (first physical and then mystical), must be transcended through our heart-based practice of God-Communion.tags: DVDPolish

There is a great Secret that has been known since before recorded history to those who are most serious about Spiritual life. It is the Secret of Liberation from the dead-end of seeking and a life of unhappiness. To discover this Secret is the true heart-desire of every being.
Avatar Adi Da Samraj describes the Realization of Truth and Its necessary practical foundation in these excerpts from Discourses given in 1988 at the Mountain Of Attention Sanctuary in northern California and at Adi Da Samrajashram Hermitage in Fiji.
ADI DA: Since the ancient days it has been said that if Real-God-Realization, Liberation, or Enlightenment is the purpose of your life, the best thing you can do is spend your time in the Company of a Realizer. It is by sympathetic association with the Realizer, Communion with the Realizer, that Realization is accomplished, and not by "self"-effort.tags: GermanDVD
In this excerpt, Adi Da addresses the fact that although the struggle and distractions in the early stages of spiritual practice are great, there is also great help in the relationship with the Spiritual Master. Attention to all of the ups and downs of the body-mind can be transcended and surrendered through that relationship.tags: DVD

In this excerpt, "Prawdziwe poddanie się to koan" ("Surrender of self Is A Koan"), Avatar Adi Da speaks directly and humorously to a beginner who assumes her lack of devotional self-surrender is a "problem", rather than a process. He contrasts the beginner's necessarily muscular, “tear your guts out”, tapas-filled practice of relatively superficial surrender (counter-egoically cutting into lifetimes of self-possession) with the mature devotee's spontaneous, profound, and complete surrender. A central principle of the process is “just do it” persistence.tags: DVDPolish

Taipumuksiltaan ihmiset ovat sidottuja elämän luonnolliseen aaltoilevaan kiertoon. Ruumiillinen nautinto tai hengelliset harjoitukset eivät tuota todellista vapautta tästä jatkuvasta liikkeestä. Ensimmäinen valinta korostaa ainoastaan laskevia (tai ruumiillisia) kokemuksia, ja toinen nousevia (tai mystisiä) kokemuksia.
Tässä varhaisessa keskustelussa Avatar Adi Da selvittää, miten suhde Guruun (eli Satsang) mahdollistaa vapauden tästä loukusta, koska Guru on sen Olotilan Ilmentymä, joka on Aiempi kuin tämä konemainen kierre, eli hän elää sen tuolla puolen.
"Guru on muuttumaton vakaus elämän aallonharjojen ja pohjien keskellä" ("The Guru is Constant Stability Amidst the Highs and Lows of Life") is an excerpt from the DVD, The Relationship To The Guru Is The Constant In Life.

The complete Avataric Discourse (nearly four hours long) is available on the DVD, There Are No Historical Selves. In this Discourse, Adi Da elaborates His assertion that although we refer to others as "you" and ourselves as "I", we have never really experienced any such separate entities. Furthermore, the self-reference is a reference to a fiction, a convention from the society of egos.
ADI DA: You refer to yourself every time you say a sentence because that's how sentences are supposed to be constructed, and yet you have no experience of that "self" that you keep referring to. You don't experience it any more than you experience the room. You can experience "yourself", so-called, from the point of view of the moment or what could be called the "late time' of every perception and thought. It's the "late time" because it's after when it occurred. But it's called the present because it seems to be happening now.tags: Avataric DiscourseDVD

The occasion of the talk was a Prasad Day on July 15, 1973. This talk, originally recorded on reel-to-reel film, was given by Adi Da in Los Angeles, California — beginning at the Ashram center on Melrose Avenue and then moving to the backyard of a devotee’s house — only a year after His formal Teaching-Work began.
In this excerpt, Avatar Adi Da speaks directly and humorously to a beginner who assumes her lack of devotional self-surrender is a "problem", rather than a process.
