The Avatar of What Is: The Divine Life and Work of His Divine Presence Avatar Adi Da Samraj: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "The Avatar of What Is: The Divine Life and Work of His Divine Presence Avatar Adi Da Samraj" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

In the depth of every being lies the inherent heart-impulse to be completely and utterly free. In this book, you will be introduced to the life and teaching of Adi Da Samraj, who not only speaks to this impulse, but who is that freedom, communicating itself to you in every possible way, through his person, his teaching, and his art. To find him 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.
When Adi Da Samraj was born, in New York in 1939, he was completely aware of his Divine condition. He existed only as this radiant state, full of Love-Bliss, and named it the Bright. Around the age of two years, in a spontaneous gesture of love toward those around him, he relinquished the enjoyment of the Bright and identified with the self-contracted state of ordinary beings. This initiated an unprecedented ordeal of relentless investigation into the Nature of Reality. In this book, Carolyn Lee tells the remarkable story of Adi Das life and work.
Even as a baby, I remember only crawling around inquisitively with a boundless Feeling of Joy, Light, and Freedom in the middle of my head that was bathed in Energy moving unobstructed in a Circle down from above, all the way down, then up, all the way up, and around again, and always Shining from my heart.
It was an Expanding Sphere of Joy from the heart. And I was a Radiant Form, the Source of Energy, Love-Bliss, and Light in the midst of a world that is entirely Energy, Love-Bliss, and Light. I was the Power of Reality, a direct Enjoyment and Communication of the One Reality. I was the Heart Itself, Who Lightens the mind and all things.
I was the same as every one and every thing, except it became clear that others were apparently unaware of the Thing Itself.
Even as a little child, I recognized It and Knew It, and my life was not a matter of anything else. That Awareness, that Conscious Enjoyment, that Self-Existing and Self-Radiant Space of Infinitely and inherently Free Being, that Shine of inherent Joy Standing in the heart and Expanding from the heart, is the Bright.
And It is the entire Source of True Humor. It is Reality. It is not separate from anything.
- Avatar Adi Da Samraj
It is obvious, from all sorts of subtle details, that he knows what ITs all about . . . a rare being.
ALAN WATTS, author, The Way of Zen and The Wisdom of Insecurity
I regard Adi Da Samraj as one of the greatest teachers in the Western world today.
IRINA TWEEDIE, Sufi teacher; author, Chasm of Fire
Adi Da Samraj is a man who has truly walked in Spirit and given true enlightenment to many.
SUN BEAR, founder, the Bear Tribe Medicine Society
A great teacher with the dynamic ability to awaken in his listeners something of the Divine Reality in which he is grounded, with which he is identified, and which, in fact, he is.
ISRAEL REGARDIE, author, The Golden Dawn

FOREWORD
by Ruchiradama Quandra Sukhapur Rani Naitauba
of the Naitauba Ruchira Sannyasin Order of Adidam Ruchiradam
Ruchiradama Quandra Sukhapur Rani Naitauba has been a devotee of His Divine Presence Avatar Adi Da Samraj for more than forty years, serving Him directly from the time she first approached as His devotee in 1974. She directly and intimately witnessed the unfolding of His active work of Teaching and Blessing and the Demonstration of His Great Intervention for the sake of all beings. Ruchiradama Quandra Sukhapur lives at Avatar Adi Das Hermitage-island in Fiji, on perpetual retreat and in constant sacred service to His Divine Presence. In her foreword and conclusion to this book, she offers the unique and inspirational confession of the senior formal renunciate devotee of Avatar Adi Da Samraj, consecrated utterly to Him and His Reality-Way.
F rom the dawn of time, great beings have appeared to guide humanity beyond all presumption of separateness from the Real and True Condition. And, yet, even since the most ancient days, a final Divine Revelation has also been prophesiedOne Who would bring Perfect Fullness to the Eternal Way of Truth for humankind.
His Divine Presence Avatar Adi Da Samraj is that culminating Manifestation of the Divine Reality on Earth. Only through the profound impulse of countless beings could the consequential Link be made between the domain of appearances and the Very Divineand, thus, it took all of human time until this era to prepare the necessary mechanisms of this great Incarnation, or Avatar. All of the heart-need and struggle and great signs of the past have served to bring about this completing Revelation, which establishes the means to go beyond the limitations of the present time and even all that came before, in the direct turning and surrender to the Divine.
In the last year of His Life, Avatar Adi Da spoke a beautiful metaphor that illuminates the nature of His Appearance:
It is as if humankind is existing in a shell, a kind of spherical enclosure. Here and there, in moments of time, with unique individuals, a hole has been broken through that shell and the light is seen through it. There is ecstatic joy in the breakthrough, and various movements begin. Religions arise on the basis of these breakthroughs.
Now, after all this time, there are a lot of little holes in the shell. Each hole is associated with a tradition, a presumption of beliefs, a presumption in mind, a tribalism of one kind or another. Looking up at the shell is like looking up at the sky. You see these little holes in the shell, each hole looking like a bright little spot, and you presume that the light seen through each hole is different from the light you see through any of the other holes
