The bottom line: If you want to feel good, you have to learn how to feel good!
ADI DA: Jakoś w tym wszystkim zdajesz sobie sprawę, że możesz czuć się dużo lepiej. Możesz czuć się absolutnie błogo. Możesz kochać absolutnie. Możesz być całkowicie wolny. Ale to stoi w sprzeczności z twoim wspólnym stanem. Widzicie, jesteście uzależnieni od wszelkiego rodzaju reaktywnych emocji, niskiego poziomu energii, fiksacji uwagi, przeszkód psychofizycznych. Jesteś uzależniony od tego wszystkiego. Masz milion, niezliczoną liczbę programów, które są mniej niż miłością, do których jesteś uzależniony. Umysł jest przymocowany do programów pożądania, uwagi. Każdy z tych programów ma swoje obiekty iw każdej chwili umysł dąży do jednego lub innego rodzaju obiektu. Twoja uwaga porusza się w kierunku jednego lub innego rodzaju obiektu. Twoje uczucie w każdej chwili jest wyrazem programu umysłu, w którym jesteś zamknięty w tej chwili.
Czego nauczyłeś się przez całe życie? Czy nauczyłeś się czuć się doskonale, czuć się absolutnie? Czy kiedykolwiek przechodziłeś przez okres nauki, w którym nauczyłeś się czuć do Nieskończoności, czuć Absolutną Boskość? Zobaczysz. Nie, nauczyliście się wszystkich wzorców reakcji życia, wszystkich pragnień zwykłych rzeczy, widzicie. A ty ich znałeś, zanim ponownie zapoznałeś się z nimi w tym ciele. Więc nie możesz czuć się lepiej niż możesz się czuć. I jesteś uzależniony od mniej niż miłości, bycia mniej niż ekstazą.
ADI DA: Somehow in the midst of this round of existence you realize that you can feel a lot better than you now feel, that you can feel absolutely blissful, that you can love absolutely, that you can be absolutely free. But feeling blissful stands in contrast to your common state. You are addicted to reactive emotion, low levels of energy, gross fixations of attention, psycho-physical obstruction. You are addicted to countless programs that are less than love. In every moment your attention is moving toward one or another object, and your feeling in every moment is an expression of the program of mind into which you are locked in that moment.
Now, what have you learned in your whole life? Have you learned to feel perfectly? To feel absolutely? Did you ever go through a period of study in which you learned to feel to Infinity, to feel Absolute Divinity? No, you learned all the reactive patterns of life, all the desires for ordinary things. You knew them even before you became familiar with them again in this body. You cannot feel any better than you can feel, and you are addicted to feeling less than love, to being less than ecstasy. When you come to see Me, you will realize that you cannot feel any better than you can feel.

ADI DA: Jotenkin, kaiken tämän keskellä, tajuat että kaikki voisi tuntua paljon paremmalta. Voisit tuntea olevasi täysin autuas. Voisit rakastaa ehdottomasti, voisit olla ehdottoman vapaa. Mutta tämä näyttää tavallisen olotilasti vastakohdalta. Olet riippuvainen kaikenlaisista reaktiivisista tunteista, matalista energiatasoista, huomion pakkomielteistä, psyko-fyysisistä tukkeutumista, olet riippuvainen kaikesta tästä, sinulla on miljoona, lukematon määrä ohjelmia, jotka ovat vähemmän kuin rakkaus, joista olet riippuvainen. Mieli on kiinnittynyt halun ja huomion ohjelmistoon. Ja jokaisella ohjelmalla on omat kohteensa joka hetkessä. Mieli pyrkii kohti yhtä tai toista kohdetta, huomiosi liikkuu kohti yhtä tai toisenlaista kohdetta. Se, miltä sinusta tuntuu joka hetkellä, on ilmaisu siitä mielen ohjelmasta, johon olet siinä kohtaa lukittuna.
Mitä olet koko elämäsi aikana oppinut? Oletko oppinut tuntemaan täydellisesti? Tuntemaan täysin? Jouduitko käymään läpi opintokauden,\Njossa opit tuntemaan äärettömiin, ehdottomaan Jumalaisuuteen asti? Ei - opit elämän kaikki reaktiokuviot, kaiken tavanomaisen halun. Ja tunsit ne ennen kuin tutustuit niihin uudellen tässä vartalossa. Eli itselläsi ei voi olla parempaa\Noloa kuin itselläsi voi olla. Ja olet riippuvainen tuntemaan itsesi vähempänä kuin rakkaus, ollaksesti vähemmän kuin ekstaasi.

How Can I Stop Being Righteous? poster: AdiDaVideos length: 08:11 date added: June 26, 2020 event date: October 28, 1978 language: English views: 961; views this month: 33; views this week: 13
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.

An audio excerpt from Adi Da's talk, "I Will Do Everything". This talk, and the talk, "Guru, Faith, and Divine Communion", are now available on a CD from the Dawn Horse Press.
In this excerpt, Adi Da describes the structure of egoic patterning, and how the principle of change is non-use of past patterns (rather than psychoanalysis, etc.) by doing what is inherently right instead.
In these two talks (“I Will Do Everything” and “Guru, Faith, and Satsang”), Adi Da beautifully illuminates the nature of the relationship to the Spiritual Master. This sacred relationship to the Guru is the direct means by which the Divine Principle becomes operative in one's life.
As feeling-attention is magnified toward the Spiritual Master —through the force of attraction, of love, of devotion — the reactive forces and habits that drive one's egoic life begin to lose their force, and the Divine becomes the Mover and Principle of one's life.

There is a “logic” or “philosophy” by which human beings convince themselves they are unloved and separated from the Source of existence. Identifying with the food-body and its inevitable mortality, people are anxious and lose the connection with True Sustenance. The principle of true human existence and happiness is discovery and recognition of the inherent state of non-separation, which is native and perfectly sustaining to all life.

His recitations of some of those poems are included in this podcast. A recording of the entire occasion (with His reading of all the poems) is available on this CD from the Dawn Horse Press.

An audio excerpt from Adi Da's talk, "Identification of the Beloved". This talk is now available on a CD from the Dawn Horse Press.
Adi Da draws us into noticing the true nature of this world, in which we find the Beloved — the True Loved One — only in its passing forms. This leads to attachment to what is temporary, generating a constant cycle of reaction and seeking for a Happiness that will overcome death. Adi Da Admonishes everyone to find the True Beloved, in Its Eternal Form — our True Condition — if Happiness is to be truly found.

Franklin Jones (Adi Da Samraj) talking to early devotees about the natural process of distraction. The occasion was a Prasad Day in May, 1973, in the backyard of a devotee's residence in Los Angeles.
In this talk, Avatar Adi Da addresses the fundamental principle of existence by which we should submit ourselves: service, love, and sacrifice at the Feet of a True Guru.
The occasion of the talk was a Prasad Day on July 15, 1973. This talk, originally recorded on reel-to-reel film, was given by Adi Da in Los Angeles, California — beginning at the Ashram center on Melrose Avenue and then moving to the backyard of a devotee’s house — only a year after His formal Teaching-Work began.
