The Ancient Reality-Teachings

An anthology of Avatar Adi Da’s masterful renderings of traditional Spiritual texts, together with His Discourses about these texts. Avatar Adi Da clarifies the single ultimate Truth conveyed by these ancient esoteric teachings in continuity with His own, and also identifies the unique characteristics of the Reality-Way of Divine Realization He offers to all.

In this anthology, Avatar Adi Da Samraj 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, Himself a Realized Master, respeaks them as one who has personally realized their truth. In these renderings, Avatar Adi Da reveals that the Buddhist “Nirvana” and the Advaitic “Brahman” point to the same transcendental condition. Avatar Adi Da’s transmissions restore to these texts the profound communication intended by the spiritual masters who created them.

This generous anthology includes six commentaries by Avatar Adi Da (from His Essays and Discourses) about the traditional texts, as well as masterful “translations” of key texts from the great sages of Advaita Vedanta and Buddhism.
