My "Bright" Word

InMy "Bright" Word,a new edition of the collection of classic spiritual discourses originally published asThe Method of the Siddhas, Avatar Adi Da elucidates the fundamentals of "radical" self-understanding, or "His Revelation of the Way of Adidam." These include: The basic principle of egoic existence, the search, which Avatar Adi Da later communicated in its simplest terms: "You want to feel goodbecause you feel bad. Therefore, you are seekingin order to feel good." The essential ego-fault and the means for overcoming it: (1) Truth cannot be realized by seeking for it. The seeking itself is the problem. When there is no seeking, Truth (or Reality) is obvious. (2) Freedom (or Divine Liberation) is not dependent on any objective entity or process. Freedom (or Divine Liberation) is always already the case. The single logic of egoic life: the logic (or process) of separation itself, of enclosure and immunity, informs every function of the living being, every experience, every act, every event. The grace-given process of "radical" self-understanding: observe your own self-contracting activity. Understand your own self-contracting activity. Transcend your own self-contracting activity. In modern language, this volume teaches the ancient all-time trans-egoic truth, transforming the student by paradox and by example. Consciousness, understanding, and finally the awakened self are the potential rewards.Samraj, Adi Da is the author of 'My "Bright" Word ', published 2005 under ISBN 9781570972058 and ISBN 1570972052.
