Adi Da Samraj and the Way of Adidam
Adi Da was born November 3, 1939, on Long Island, New York. His birth was an intentional embrace of the human situation, for the sake of revealing the Way and the Means of perfect liberation. “Avatar” is the One who appears in human form as a direct manifestation of the Reality that is beyond all cause and effect, transcending time and space. The mystery of such a manifestation is beyond comprehension, but Adi Da can be recognized at heart as the fulfillment of the ancient intuitions of Avatar.

In an unprecedented “teaching-revelation” process (beginning in 1972, and now complete), Avatar Adi Da gathered groups of His devotees around Him and spoke for many hours – always looking for them, as representatives of humanity, to ask all their questions about God, Truth, Reality, and human life.
In response, He created a vast body of written and spoken Teaching in which He communicates – in every detail – the means and the signs of ecstatic participation in His direct revelation of Reality.

Adi Da Samraj has created a new tradition, the Way of Adidam, based on His Avataric revelation. The Way is the devotional and Transcendental Spiritual relationship to Him. Adi Da’s true function as Spiritual master is not to teach or somehow magically “cause” realization in His devotees. Rather, His function is to simply Be – as He Is, the Divine Reality-State – and thus make available to all beings the direct Transmission of Reality itself.

Adidam is not
a conventional “religion”. Adidam is not based
on mythology or belief. Adidam is a universally
applicable Way of life. - Avatar Adi Da Samraj |
“There exists nowhere in the
world today, among Christians,
Jews, Muslims, Hindus, Buddhists,
native tribalists, or any other
groups, anyone who has so much
to teach, or speaks with such
authority, or is so important
for understanding our situation.
If we are willing to learn from
him in every way, he is a pole
around which the world can get
its bearings.” Henry Leroy Finch “The writings of Adi Da Samraj are the most doctrinally thorough, the most philosophically sophisticated, the most culturally challenging, and the most creatively original literature on radical nonduality currently available in the English language.” Jeffrey J. Kripal |
To find Adi Da Samraj is to find
the very heart of Reality,
tangibly
known by you at heart as the deepest
truth of existence.
This is the great
mystery that you are invited to discover.
