Book Description

Publication Date: November 1, 2001 | Series: The Seventeen Companions of the True Dawn Horse (Book 2)

Ruchira Avatar Adi Da Samraj has created a series of twenty-three books that He has designated as His "Source-Texts". Among these twenty-three books, there is a sub-series of seventeen volumes (called The Seventeen Companions Of The True Dawn Horse), each of which offers His Wisdom relative to a fundamental aspect of true Spiritual life.

In The Truly Human New World-Culture Of Unbroken Real-God-Man (Book Two of the "Seventeen Companions"), Avatar Adi Da examines the fundamental global "split" between the cultures of East and West, and Reveals the Way beyond this apparent dichotomy.

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".
