The Da Love-Ananda Gita is like an outline of the true means to worship the Divine. It's also an argument for what and who god really is. I found this argument so convincing that it relieved me of my search for any other form of god.

In my search for spiritual life I happened upon the teaching of Avatar Adi Da Samraj. I can see now that it was not an accidental happening, but an inevitable one. The first book by Avatar Adi Da that I ever studied was the Da Love-Ananda Gita.

Da Love-Ananda Gita is a gift of perfect wisdom. Its expression is direct and complete, and if you allow yourself to be immersed in it, a simplicity is revealed that will break your heart. How to live a life of Grace. That is what I always wanted, and I hardly dared to believe I was being given this secret so freely.

The book is really a love affair. It is the love between my heart and the Divine, exquisitely described and evoked. As Avatar Adi Da concludes the final essay, "What is a Greater Message than this?"

"Gita" means song and the Da Love-Ananda Gita strikes me as the song of all songs. Adi Da Samraj writes that his state of consciousness is "Happiness Itself," a state of happiness that is completely free of anything less than itself. The Da Love-Ananda Gita drew me toward this feeling of happiness itself, this unfathomable mystery and miracle, which I think is easily reason enough to read this book.
