Brings together samples from His vast Divine Instruction relative to the true nature of Reality — as the unknowable Condition that is Always Already the Case, prior to the presumption of a separate “point of view”.

In this clip, "Acércate a Mí desde el Corazón" ("Approach Me from the Heart"), Adi Da speaks to devotees in the Manner Of Flowers (at the Mountain Of Attention), during the "Love of the God-Man" Celebration on March 8, 1984. Adi Da talks about praise speech, ecstasy, and Satsang.
Some of the questions Adi Da addresses in the full talk are: What is a Divine experience? Who is God that God could be identified over against anything whatsoever? Who is a Spiritual Master if He can find Himself apart from God, such that He could say: “This piece is Me and this piece is God”? How could such distinctions continue in the consciousness of one who has Realized the Divine?tags: SpanishDVD
Adi Da: His Unique Offering poster: AdiDaVideos speaker: Vanessa Kenoyer length: 08:14 date added: April 1, 2023 language: English views: 520; views this month: 108; views this week: 76 A devotee of Avatar Adi Da speaks about His Unique Offering and how it differs from other approaches. In an excerpt from one of His essays, "There Is A Way And Reality Itself Is It" (in The Aletheon), Adi Da states: "What I Bring to here is not mythology. What I Bring to here is not ‘religion’. What I Bring to here is not anything that human beings already ‘know’. What I Bring to here is not a path or a search that is already evident in the history of the Great Tradition of humankind. What I Bring to here has never been offered before, never heard of before, never practiced before."

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.tags: SpanishDVD

In this excerpt, "No hay nadie para rendirse" ("There Is No One To Surrender"), Adi Da Samraj considers the spiritual transformation of a human being, and states of the body-mind. The real spiritual process is not based on effort or having more (or greater) experiences, even in the mystical dimension. In the true spiritual process, experience, in all its forms (first physical and then mystical), must be transcended through our heart-based practice of God-Communion.tags: DVDSpanish

"The Key to Our Sexuality Is Emotion" is an excerpt from a longer Discourse in which Adi Da communicates how all our problems (including sexual problems) are rooted in the feeling of being a separate self, which coincides with the feeling, "you don't love me", the feeling of rejection by (or lack of sustenance from) the universe, and leads to the reaction, "I don't love you".tags: Czech

This is a video excerpt from Adi Da's classic talk, "The Bodily Location of Happiness", which He gave on November 28, 1981. This talk was originally published in the book, The Bodily Location Of Happiness. The full talk is available on DVD and on CD, and as an online transcript.
ADI DA: Life is foolishness. This is no time, in any case, to be tolerant of foolishness. The world is mad, and these are dreadful times. Things are not going to be easier in the years ahead. The spiritual process has always been lived in difficult times. Therefore, the spiritual process tolerates no fool. The spiritual process itself will spit you out. It is not an easy attainment, but a profoundly difficult affair. Even what you have listened to today has been heard by only a fraction of the human race in all of history. The opportunity to practice is extremely rare, and the fulfillment of practice is practically unknown.
In some sense you could say this life is hell. . . The nature of this hell is that we are self-possessed. We are born in un-Happiness and we do not transcend it readily. We constantly pursue Happiness through all kinds of incredibly complex means, and we never attain It. . .
If Spiritual Realizers did not turn about and Teach, this would truly be a hell instead of being like a hell. It would truly be a hell if there were no possibility of Enlightenment, if there were no Teaching, no Spiritual Masters, no sacred Way, no sacred community, no capacity for understanding or self-transcendence.tags: SpanishCDDVD
The Five Reality-Teachings (in Mandarin) poster: Paul Litchfield speaker: Jane Yang length: 02:05 date added: September 11, 2022 event date: 2008 language: Mandarin views: 762; views this month: 25; views this week: 9 Devotee Jane Yang translated Adi Da's The Five Reality-Teachings into Mandarin. Here is her 2008 recitation of that translation.
Consideration of "The Five Reality-Teachings" is one of the core practices of The Transcendental Spiritual Way of Adidam. "The Five Reality-Teachings" are part of "The Teaching Manual of Perfect Summaries", in Part 11 of The Aletheon. They also are featured in the book, Notice This.
THE FIVE REALITY-TEACHINGS Avatar Adi Da Samraj
Notice this:
1. You are not the one who wakes, or dreams, or sleeps.
2. You Are the actionless and formless Mere Witness of the three common states — of waking, dreaming, and sleeping — and of all the apparent contents and "experiences" associated with the three common states, of waking, and of dreaming, and of sleeping.
3. You are not the body, or the doer of action, or the doer of even any of the body's actions or functions.
4. You are not the mind, or the thinker, or the doer of even any of the actions or functions of mind or of body-mind.
5. No matter what arises — whether as or in the state of waking, or of dreaming, or of sleeping — you Are the actionless, and formless, and thought-free Mere Witness of attention itself, and of every apparent "object" of attention, and of any and every state of "experience", and of the entirety of whatever and all that arises.
Always intensively "consider" these Five Reality-Teachings.
Always intensively observe and notice every moment of your "experience" — whether waking, dreaming, or sleeping — and, thus and thereby, "consider" and test and directly prove these Five Reality-Teachings in the moment-to-moment of your every kind and state of "experience".

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.
