More About the Author

Adi Da was born in New York at the outbreak of World War II. From 1983 he lived principally in Fiji and became a Fijian citizen. The author of over sixty books on spirituality and a prolific artist, he also had profound attention for world affairs, particularly during the last decade of his life, as summarized in Not-Two Is Peace.
Adi Da was born in a unique spiritual state. As a young man, he immersed himself in the traditions of human wisdom and spirituality. His Western studies included university degrees--in philosophy from Columbia and in literature from Stanford. Following his university years, he intensively engaged both Western and Eastern forms of spiritual practice.
In 1970, at the age of thirty, Adi Da was re-established in the illumined condition he had known in his earliest life. He began to offer formal instruction in spiritual practice to those who came to him, creating (out of a free interactive participation with his devotees) what is now an unprecedented body of spiritual, philosophical, and practical writings (find the most current offerings at the Dawn Horse Press website), as well as an immense body of visual art (the website dedicated to Adi Da's art is called Daplastique). In 2007, his artwork was exhibited at the 52nd Venice Biennale, and subsequently in several other exhibitions, including in Florence, New York, and Los Angeles.
As spiritual teacher, artist, and "World Friend", Adi Da is not a conventional figure. He is not political in any ordinary sense of the word. Rather, his address to humanity comes from his lifelong communication of the truth of human existence. He is making clear the species-endangering forces of limitation in our world, the means to go beyond them, and the great urgency of this "going beyond".

This review is from: Ruchira Avatara Gita (The Way of the Divine Heart-Master): The Five Books of the Heart of the Adidam Revelation (Paperback)

When I found Avatar Adi Da and His wisdom, my spiritual search was brought to an end, surprisingly, delightfully, and profoundly.

The Ruchira Avatara Gita tells the secret of the relationship to the Divine Heart-Master in which the Master reveals His Eternal, All-Pervading Divine Nature of Conscious Light, and grants the devotee the Gift of Freedom, the Gift of awakening in Him and as Him. The words on these pages literally shine with Light, and will awaken your heart.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book will touch and move you at heart., February 26, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Ruchira Avatara Gita (The Way of the Divine Heart-Master): The Five Books of the Heart of the Adidam Revelation (Paperback)

In all my life, I have never encountered a book like this. Avatar Adi Da Samraj's esoteric writings about the Guru-devotee relationship will touch and move you at heart. They will make you aware of the possibility that you can actually awaken to and be the very Divine Self of Infinite, Immortal Light. And that awakening, as the book explains, is not achieved by effort, but is Grace-Given, in the context of the love relationship with the Divine Guru. Just imagine the God-intoxicated devotees of Jesus, the Buddha, and Krishna, and the intimate, loving relationship they shared with one other. Just so, you can have this same relationship with the Divine Heart-Master, Bhagavan Adi Da Samraj, who has descended from the God-Realm out of overwhelming love and the desire to liberate everyone from suffering and awaken all to Himself. I urge you to read this book.

This book is a gift to anyone who has spiritual aspirations. That the Divine Incarnate is here among us to liberate us from bondage to this conditional world is a miracle beyond belief. Ruchira Avatar Adi Da Samraj lovingly offers to everyone a devotional relationship to Him -- the Way of Real God, Truth, and Happiness.
