In this podcast, which is drawn from two talks and a recitation from Adi Da's Teaching, Avatar Adi Da brings His unique clarity and offers commentary on the commercialization of religion. He describes how the consumer mentality has infiltrated the area of religion. We hear from the media and the popular psyche that you can buy religion and become "spiritual" without real change — and Adi Da points out how this presumption is false. Adi Da contasts consumer religion with true religion.

Adi Da teaches children all about the Mystery (aka Divine Ignorance) beyond knowledge and death, expanding their awareness beyond the materialistic. He invites us all to enter into a relationship with Him through the Mystery.

Recitation is from Adi Da's book, What, Where, When, How, Why, and Who To Remember To Be Happy. Recitation is by a 7-year old child, accompanied by Ray Lynch on piano, from Ray's album, Truth Is The Only Profound.

Searchless, Lawful Management of the Bodyaudio

A devotee reads an excerpt from Adi Da's essay, "Searchless, Lawful Management of the Body", from the book, Green Gorilla.

In this essay, Adi Da addresses "lawfulness" in relation to diet, in contrast to the fascinated preoccupation with food that characterizes people in the modern world. This preoccupation is based in the egoic search for fun and pleasure, and inevitably results in suffering and pain. The lawful diet is not an end in itself, but a simple, ordinary practice that establishes "the 'position' of well-being of the body" and is part of a larger practice of what Adi Da calls "right life".

For more on this topic (as well as the text of the complete essay, "Searchless, Lawful Management of the Body"), read the Adidam Revelation Magazine's article, Searchless, Lawful Management of the Body. Further excerpts from Green Goriila can be found here.

An audio excerpt from the CD, God Is Not In Charge.

Have you ever wondered:

  • Is God a Being, or the Being, taking care of everyone?
  • If there is a God, then why isn't God obviously just in charge?
  • Why do individuals who don't believe in God very often seem to have a relatively enjoyable life, and believers just as frequently suffer?
  • If God is a Parent-Force, then why doesn't the commitment to God bring into your life evidence that you are being protected and sustained?

These are some of the questions that Avatar Adi Da considers with devotees participating with Him in the gatherings from the 1980's presented on this CD. What unfolds is a lively consideration that you too can participate in, wherever or whenever you are, by listening to this CD.

Special terminology used in this excerpt: gnosis
