It was common during Adi Da's lifetime for His devotees to offer musical performances to Him as gifts of their gratitude and love. This video excerpt form 2013, five years after His Bodily passing, includes a variety of music, including traditional Indian chanting, a choral rendition and adaption of Beethoven's Ode to Joy and even gospel music! We offer this excerpt in this world-wide season of celebration and gratitude for the unity of humankind.

This video clip features performances from many devotees, including Mel McMurrin singing "Mary Don’t You Weep", Crane Kirkbride ("Ode to Divine Joy"), the voices of the Adidam Choir, and the piano-playing of Naamleela Free Jones. You can also hear the Choir singing devotee and Billboard Award-winning composer Ray Lynch's song, "This Is the Great Gift".

Available as a CD, Ode To Divine Joy, from the Dawn Horse Press.
