The Mummery Book poster: firstroom length: 02:44 date added: February 5, 2009 language: English views: 6420; views this month: 35; views this week: 20 The true enactment of The Mummery Book by Adi Da Samraj takes place in an extraordinary theater. That extraordinary theater is the theater of our own mind — not just the thinking mind, but mind in its coincidence with all of reality, internal and external.
Kenneth Welsh: "Just as I find fresh knowledge with each re-reading of Shakespeare's plays, no matter which work, each time I return to The Mummery Book and its masterful boldness, the way its words startle and surprise and cry out from the heart of its Creator, I feel blessed by its beauty and I am moved by the truth that pulses through its every image."tags: Mummery Booktheatertheatresacred artFirst RoomOrpheum

Creating a New Spiritual Tradition poster: satsang length: 03:32 date added: February 5, 2009 language: English event speaker: Jonathan Condit views: 4144; views this month: 16; views this week: 14 Adi Da's senior editorial assistant, Jonathan Condit, tells the story of the moment when Adi Da "captured his heart", while he was an ordained Buddhist monk. At the time, Jonathan had an immediate recognition of Adi Da as "Maitreya Buddha". He describes how his recognition deepened over time: "All the premonitions of a 'great being to come' [Maitreya] are unbelievably pale in comparison to the actuality of Avatar Adi Da."
[Note: Jonathan refers to 23 key books written by Adi Da. Since the time of this recording, Adi Da expanded His Vision for His primary literature to 23 "courses", each of which can be associated with many particular Texts.]tags: AdidamNaitaubaJonathan Condit
