In October of 1978, in Land Bridge Pavilion at the Mountain Of Attention Sanctuary in Northern California, devotees of Adi Da Samraj gathered with Him for an occasion in which He responded to their questions. At one point, a young boy stood up to ask a question. With quiet determination, he asked Avatar Adi Da if he could help him find a way to stop being self-righteous with other people. Avatar Adi Da gave the boy a radiant smile and began to speak to him with great gentleness and love. This is a video excerpt from that Talk. This is track 6 on the DVD, Surrender of self Is A Koan. It is also available in audio form as Track 3 of the free, downloadable CD, The Liberating Word of Avatar Adi Da Samraj, Volume 1.

"Poddanie staje się możliwe dzięki osobie Mistrza Duchowego" ("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.

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.

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.

Adi Da: "Camels should pervade the Sanctuary."
The Sacred Camel Gardens are offering camel retreats to the public. Enjoy this footage of the camels and of some of the people who have had a chance to visit with them.
[Note: This video was made in 2010, and at 3:15, the video refers to "retreats happening in 2010". Since everything in the video still applies to the retreats currently being offered, and no new video has been created, we felt this one would still be useful.]

World-Friend Adi Da: "The old moral, social, and political order of humankind is now dead. A new and true and right order of humankind is, now, and forever hereafter, necessary. This Free Declaration is the Seed-Utterance of that new and necessary true and right (and truly globally, totally, and universally cooperative) order."
