In these direct and engaging Talks, Avatar Adi Da discusses the profound requirements for a life of Real-God-Realization. He addresses questions from individuals about one’s true intention relative to Spiritual life; what is required to embrace and persist in real Spiritual practice (regardless of all the other tendencies and desires that arise in daily life); and the Function of the Divinely Self-Realized Guru in the Spiritual process.
Avatar Adi Da also discusses the great and universal Law that “you become what you meditate on”—or, you realize whatever state your attention rests in—and He reveals the ancient practice of devotional relationship to a true Guru that Realizes true Freedom and Happiness.
This video compilation is drawn from a unique period in Avatar Adi Da’s Teaching-Work. In 1988, after offering numerous Discourses in New Zealand, Avatar Adi Da traveled to the United States, where He gathered with His devotees in California for a few months before returning to Adi Da Samrajashram, His principal Hermitage in Fiji.
This DVD contains excerpts from conversations between Avatar Adi Da and His listeners in the United States, Fiji, and New Zealand in 1988.
In Truth, you exist in the context of the Divine Reality, and you must function with such understanding. The course of Wisdom, then, is the ego-transcending course.The purpose of existence is the Samadhi that is Realization of Real God, Truth, or Reality.On that basis, therefore, the true process of existence is ego-transcending, or the process of purification in devotional submission to the Divine.Therefore, use your lifetime for the sake of Divine Self-Realization in My Company. If you use it for anything less, then whatever is less becomes your destiny.
