Adi Da offers His unique renderings of the Dharma of the great sages of Advaita Vedanta and Buddhism, including Gotama Sakyamuni, Nagarjuna, Shankara, and Ribhu. Rather than simply translate their teachings from available source texts, Avatar Adi Da respeaks them as one who has personally realized their truth. He reveals that the Buddhist “Nirvana” and the Advaitic “Brahman” point to the same Transcendental Condition. Avatar Adi Da’s rendering restores to these texts the profundity intended by the Spiritual Masters who created them.tags: Avataric DiscourseMountain of AttentionFree RenderingBuddhismAdvaita Vedanta

He then points out that the tendency to create a cult (of whatever kind) is present in everyone, every level of human society and culture. Adi Da criticizes the tendency toward cultism in the world at large and within His community of devotees. He calls His devotees to understand and relinquish all modes of false and childish dependency on Him as a Spiritual Master, and to make only the most serious and mature approach to Him, for the great purpose of Spiritual Awakening and Divine Enlightenment.tags: Radical Truth Audio Seriescultscultism

In the first excerpt (from the talk, What Is Your Intention?), Adi Da speaks of the indispensable need for a true and fully accomplished Spiritual Realizer if anyone hopes to discover the ultimate nature of Reality and Truth.
In the second excerpt (at 8:40), Adi Da explains the true way of recognizing Him, the Spiritual Master, and how it is that felt recognition that ultimately becomes the Way of Perfect Liberation.

She describes a fundamental lesson she learned: if oriented properly, the devotee healer serves as a conduit for Adi Da, and Adi Da does the healing, with an efficacy and speed not otherwise possible.

Technological Advances and the Life of the Spiritual Master poster: AdiDaUpClose length: 02:20 date added: December 9, 2011 event date: September 9, 1984 language: English listens: 3877; listens this month: 14; listens this week: 7 At Adi Da Samrajashram, Adi Da describes how the advances in technology (in photography, video recording, etc.) have made His life and work uniquely available to future generations, in a way that simply was not possible during the time of Jesus and other great Spiritual Masters.
A key responsibility of the Adidam Archives is to do the work of preserving all of the various forms of recordings and documentation that Adi Da is describing. Of particular importance at the current time is the conversion of all temporary (perishable) forms (like audiocassettes; handwritten sheets of paper — Adi Da wrote all His books in this manner; etc.) into more permanent (digital) forms of recording and record. You can help!

Terry tells how, even in the midst of a conventionally "successful" life, he became aware of his own inability to truly love, feel, and be in relationship with others. The crisis engendered by this realization led him to consider spiritual practice, and ultimately led him to his Spiritual Master, Avatar Adi Da Samraj.tags: leelaTerry Cafferty
