Tässä varhaisessa puheessa vuodelta 1978, Adi Da käsittelee hengellisen harjoituksen alkuvaiheiden kamppailua ja häiriötekoijöitä, mutta myös sitä suurta apua, jota saa suhteesta hengelliseen mestariin. Huomion vartalo-mielen ylä- ja alamäkiin voi ylittää tuossa suhteessa.
"Suhde Hengelliseen Mestariin mahdollistaa antautumisen" ("Communion with the Spiritual Master is What Makes Surrender Possible") is from a question and answer session with Adi Da on October 28, 1978, in Land Bridge Pavilion at the Mountain Of Attention Sanctuary in Northern California. This is track 3 on the DVD, Surrender of self Is A Koan.
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.

Adi Da puhuu tilanteesta, jossa ihminen ymmärtää tavallisen elämän sitovuuden ja rajoitukset, joka mahdollistaa hengellisen harjoituksen.
In this seminal discourse (at The Mountain Of Attention), from the early years of His Teaching Work, Adi Da speaks about the inevitable process of self-revelation and self-understanding that prepares the being for true Spiritual life.

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.
Watching this DVD 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).

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.

In this rare historical footage from 1973, Adi Da speaks about the relationship with the Guru in Satsang (the Company of the Awakened One) as the Way of Truth, and Reality Itself.
ADI DA: "During My 'Sadhana Years', whenever My Guru asked Me to do something, I would do that. The rest of the time, I would sit there and be absorbed in Him. And there was nothing else I could do. The Guru is sufficient — and the devotee of the Guru is one who knows that."

Avatar Adi Da Samraj kutsui ihmisiä lähestymään Häntä Hengellisenä Opettajana ensimmäistä kertaa 25. huhtikuuta 1972 Hänen uudessa ashramissaan Melrose Avenuella Los Angelesissa. Tuona iltana Avatar Adi Da ensin istui hiljaa noin tunnin verran läsnäolijoiden kanssa, Levittäen heille Hänen Säteilevää Toteutuksen Olotilansa Ylevyyttä.
Sitten Adi Da puhui: ADI DA: "Onko kellään kysymyksiä?" Kukaan ei vastannut, joten Avatar Adi Da Samraj kysyi uudelleen: ADI DA: "Kaikki ovat ymmärtäneet?" KYSYJ Ä: "En ymmärtänyt. Selitä minulle." ADI DA: "Hyvä on. Mitä et ymmärtänyt?"
Ja niin alkoi Adi Dan Opetustyö!
For the first time, on April 25, 1972, Avatar Adi Da Samraj invited people to approach Him as Spiritual Teacher at His new ashram center on Melrose Avenue in Los Angeles. That evening, Avatar Adi Da first sat in silence for perhaps an hour with those present, Transmitting to them the Sublimity of His Radiant State of Realization. Then, Adi Da spoke.
ADI DA: Are there any questions?
No one replied, so Avatar Adi Da Samraj spoke again.
ADI DA: Everyone has understood? QUESTIONER: I have not understood. Explain it to me. ADI DA: Very good. What have you not understood?

Avatar Adi Da Samraj: ”Ylitän kaiken — ja sisällän kaiken… Tarjoan Jumalaisen Avataarisen Paljastus-Opetukseni kaikille Yleispätevänä ja Ainutlaatuisena Viisautena, joka leikkaa valikoimatta kaikkien rajoitusten läpi. Olen Jumalainen Avatar joka ylittää Lännen ja Idän.”
Avatar Adi Dan elinaika oli ainutlaatuinen havainnollistus Hänen Valaistuneesta Tilastaan jota Hän nimittää ”Kirkkaaksi” tai Tietoiseksi Valoksi, joka on Itse Todellisuus. Hänen syntymästään marraskuun 3. päivänä vuonna 1939 Long Islandilla New Yorkin osavaltiossa Hänen ruumiinsa taakse jättämiseen marraskuun 27. päivänä vuonna 2008, Hänen elämänsä on kertomus ”Kirkkaan” väliintulosta ihmisten aikaan.
Hänen elinaikanaan Avatar Adi Da perusti uuden ja ainutlaatuisen mahdollisuuden kaikkien olentojen ja koko mailman kasvulle ja muutokselle. Hänen Paljastuksensa näyttää Jumalaisen Todellisuuden, jokaisen yksilön ja kaiken Alkuperäisen Olotilan.
Avatar Adi Da Samraj on aina sanonut, että se Polku jota Hän Opettaa, on egon ylittävä suhde, eikä egoa palveleva tekniikka. Polku perustuu siihen, etta yksilö tunnistaa Hänet ja vastaa Hänelle. Se on äänetön, hiljainen vaisto jokaisen omassa sydämessä. Ei ole kyse pelkästään uskomuksista, ideoista tai tekniikoista, jotka tavoittelevat joko materiaalista tai hengellistä täyttymystä. Avatar Adi Da Samraj Paljastaa Itse Jumalaisen Olotilan, Itse Tietoisuuden Rakkaus-Autuus-Valon kaikille, jotka vastaavat Hänelle.
Tämä lyhytelokuva on yleiskatsaus Avatar Adi Dan elämään ja Opetukseen sekä myös kutsu ryhtyä Hengelliseen suhteeseen Hänen kanssaan.

Laulaja ja muusikko, Jacqueline Clemons, esittää "Yleisen Maailmanrukouksen", Adi Da Samrajin kirjoittaman rauhanrukouksen. Nick Milon ja Jacqueline Clemonsin sävellys.
Beloved, Inmost Heart of every heart, donotLet our human hearts be broken by our merely mortal suffering here — but Make our mortal human hearts break-Free to an unconditional love of You, that we may, Thus, love all living beings with Love's own True, and Truly broken, Heart.
Composed by Jacqueline Clemons and Nick Milo, and sung by Jacqueline Clemons, this soulful rendition of Adi Da's prayer for world peace, "The Universal World-Prayer", was sung many times at The Parliament of the World's Religions in Cape Town, South Africa, in December, 1999.
The song accompanies a slideshow of pictures of Adi Da.
Adi Da's Universal World-Prayer coincides with His Instructions to not "live the Law backwards": trying to love others (or attempting to bring about world peace), while failing to first love God (and have our love of others be the overflow of our communion with God).

Adi Dan väkevä kehoitus ymmärtämykseen ja elämän ja kuoleman kehän ylitykseen "Sydämen muuttumattoman Tuntemuksen ja Nautinnon" kautta.
Adi Da recites "Sydämen muuttumattoman Tuntemuksen ja Nautinnon" ("The Heart of Understanding"), the Prologue to His autobiography, The Knee Of Listening. "The Heart of Understanding" also is the Prologue to His book, Easy Death.
The recitation is accompanied by photos of Adi Da.
"The Heart of Understanding" is extraordinarily good news: death itself can be transcended! The death of the body-mind is not a problem, and is utterly acceptable, if one realizes and stands as Consciousness Itself, in which all mortal forms and limited worlds are arising.
In the final words of "The Heart of Understanding", Adi Da reveals that He is That: Consciousness Itself. Because this is so, He transmits that Revelation to all beings, and provides (and is) the means whereby all of us finally can be free of mortality and the mortal vision.
This excerpt is track 1 of the CD, Death and the Purpose of Existence, a collection of talks and recitations that exemplify Avatar Adi Da’s essential Wisdom-Teaching on death and dying.

Tässä aiemmin julkaisemattomassa keskustelussa Adi Da puhuu positiivisesta harhojen haihtumisesta ja sen tarpeellisuudesta kuolevaisen elämän parissa. Positiivinen harhojen haihtuminen ilmenee, kun yksilö alkaa ymmärtää rasittavaa ja lopulta turhaa etsintäänsä, jossa hän hakee jatkoa elämälleen, maailmallista onnea, ja lopullista elämän täyttymystä — ja alkaa myös luopua siitä. Vain silloin yksilö voi alkaa huomioimaan, oppimaan, ja ekstaattisesti osallistumaan Itse Todellisuuteen, suhteessa Aitoon Toteuttajaan.
In this excerpt from an Avataric Discourse, Adi Da speaks about the necessity to become disillusioned with mortal life in a positive sense. Positive disillusionment is emerging when one begins to understand and relinquish the stressful and ultimately futile search for personal survival, worldly happiness, and ultimate life fulfillment. Only then can one be drawn into recognizing, learning about, and ecstatically participating in Reality Itself, in relationship to a True Realizer.
ADI DA: The teaching of Truth is for those who are disillusioned in the positive sense, who have been sobered in their lives by grasping the nature of existence and being cured of search.

Sanat kuten "vapaus" ja "rakkaus" määritetään yleisesssä maallikkoympäristössä erittäin rajoitetusti. Tässä Adi Dan esseen lausunnassa hän avaa näiden sanojen aitoa merkitystä.
The audio recording is an excerpt from a recitation of Adi Da's essay, "Freedom Is The Only Law and Happiness Is The Only Reality". This is the Epilogue from Adi Da's book, The Truly Human New World-Culture of Unbroken Real-God-Man, which was originally written in 2001, and updated on November 13, 2019. The essay is read by a student of Adi Da. In the secular world, words like "freedom" and " love" are given a very limited definition. In this essay, Adi Da expands the true meaning of both of these words.
ADI DA: I Am here to Divinely Liberate all beings.
I Am here to Grant True Freedom to every one.
“Freedom” is one of the principal words associated with the politics of this “late-time”. The general trend toward the democratization of the entire world carries with it an intensified interest in the concept of freedom and in the pursuit of freedom. However, in the context and circumstance of this “late-time”, the word “freedom” is used in such a way that the true import of the word is lost, and its meaning is transformed, and even vulgarized.
The same process of vulgarization has also occurred in the case of other words, such as (for example) the word “love”. The word “love” represents a profound concept and reality, but the word itself tends to be used very casually. People commonly say that they “love” this or that, meaning something quite different from what the word “love” rightly and truly signifies.
“Love” is a word that rightly refers to the universal Sacrifice of ego-“self”. Real love is a matter of transcending “self” (or going beyond your limitations in relation to others)—but, in the “late-time” circumstance of vulgarized culture, the word “love” has come to be used in relation to whatever satisfies your inclinations, or fulfills your desires, or (otherwise) somehow compensates for limitations in your life by pleasing you and (thereby) supporting your egoic disposition. None of that has anything to do with real love.
So it also is with the word “freedom”, and the notion of freedom. The world-culture of this “late-time” is essentially an ego-culture associated with complications in the first three stages of life. It is essentially an adolescent culture. And it is in the context of that culture that great words like “love” and “freedom” become vulgarized. In the adolescent disposition, the word “freedom”, like the word “love”, is reduced to an egoic meaning. People say they want to be “free”, or want to act “freely”, or want to be “free” to do this or that—but what they actually mean is that they want to be able to fulfill their desires without limitation. An adolescent reacting to parental authority or parental expectations regards any such authority or expectations to be oppressive or limiting. Therefore, such adolescents say that they want to be “free” to do whatever they please. And that is, in general, what is meant in this “late-time” by the word “freedom”. Even in the larger political sphere, the word “freedom” is used to express the (personal, and also collective) intent to be able to fulfill desires—and those desires are (necessarily) fundamentally ego-based.
What does the fulfillment of desires have to do with true freedom? Rightly, the word “freedom” is synonymous with the word “liberation”. To “be free”, or to “be liberated”, means to “go beyond bondage”. The opposite of “freedom” is “bondage”. If one is truly moved to be truly free, one is moved to relinquish (and go beyond) bondage. Such is the true Wisdom-understanding of freedom.
Neither true freedom, nor real love, nor any other great concept is rightly understood via the words and concepts of adolescents. There must be human maturity (and, therefore, growth in Wisdom) for the great meanings underlying these concepts to be understood and actually lived.
Be moved toward real love, without limit. Be moved toward real happiness, without limit.
Be moved toward true freedom, without limit. You should (and, ultimately, must) be so moved. But to actually realize love (or real happiness, or true freedom) without limit, you must deal with yourself most profoundly. You cannot merely be reactive, like an adolescent or a worldly person.
If you want to be truly free, you must first understand that you are bound, and you must understand how you are bound, and then you must do something about that. If, on the other hand, you are merely reactively inclined to fulfill desires, and you want to be (so-called) “free” to do so, then you are not examining your bondage—what its roots are, what its signs are, what its characteristics are—and, if you are not examining your bondage with real discriminative intelligence, you are also not doing what you must do in order to be truly free.

Gerald Sheinfeld, joka on omistautunut Avatar Adi Dalle 1970-luvun alusta saakka, kertoo tarinan Gurunsa löytämisestä, ja siitä, miten hän välittömästi tunnisti Avatar Adi Dan ainutlaatuisen olotilan, joka viestii vapautta, iloa ja vapautusta. Gerald selittää, miten tuon kaltainen tunnistus Adi Dan olotilasta herkistää yksilön Aiemman Ykseyden asemaan.
