Divine Utterances:
Way of Adidam




This page includes a small selection from the many Divine Utterances (which Adi Da sometimes humorously called "Holy Mutterances") that Adi Da spoke or wrote from 1972 to 2008, on the topic of Way of Adidam. For more on Adi Da's Divine Utterances, click here.



So there are not a lot of ways to be "Saved"! There is only one way to be "Saved" — and that is to love the Divine ecstatically, to the point of egolessly Perfect Distraction.

"Perfect Distraction"
Part 9, The Aletheon

An ancient text says: "Mankind does not know. Only the Horse knows." Therefore, you must grasp the tail of the Horse, the God-Realizer. . . . The Horse takes you — I take you — Where there is to go.

Understand your un-Happiness. Then you will be capable of locating Happiness, and, having located Happiness, you will be capable of practicing the Way of Adidam, which is nothing but the devotion of life to Happiness.

"The Bodily Location of Happiness" (November 28, 1981)

Come slowly or come quickly, but surely come to Me.

I am like the sunlight in the morning. I intensify the light of morning until you awaken. Until the light awakens a person, even the Light of Consciousness Itself, the person continues to dream, tries to survive within the dream, manipulates himself or herself within the dream, pursues all kinds of goals, searches, none of which Awaken you. . . I Myself, the One Who would Awaken you, am not an individual within the dream. I Am your Very Consciousness, Your Very Self-Condition. I Am the Real, the Conscious Light, the True Waking State, the True Divine Heart — Breaking Through the force of dreaming.

"The Gorilla Sermon" (June 22, 1972)
My "Bright" Word

What you would have in Communion with Me is a cool, watery, full moonlit night, cooled of stress and desire, and consolation, Awake to Brightness.

You must be willing to vanish completely, to be completely obliterated. You will become capable of that sacrifice only by degrees, because your fear is profound.

Get up from bed and drop dead!

The one thing you fear is death, because you are holding on to your egoic self. If you give up your egoic self by turning to Me (moment to moment), you die as the ego-"I". You transcend the physical and mental limitations of the egoic self.

"Get Up from Bed and Drop Dead!"
Easy Death

The Divine Heart-Master Is the Supreme Help Offered by the Real and Ever-Living God. There is no Friend greater than the Divine Heart-Master. Therefore, body and mind should be entirely devoted to the Divine Heart-Master, so that attention is set free in His Heart of "Brightness".

Ruchira Avatara Gita

Real life, then, the higher evolutionary process, is a basic matter of surrendering from the heart in every moment and feeling to the point of dissolution or ecstasy.

Come to Me when you are already Happy.

"Come to Me When You Are Already Happy"

I am Present in the same kind of bodily form as you — manifested in the same kind of physical condition, the same kind of nervous system, the same kind of brain. But in Me all these things are Raised to an Absolute level of Functioning, so that your entering into Communion with Me brings changes even at the level of the psycho-physical body that you present to Me.
