  • The Shark Whisperer

    I just watched a Netflix documentary called The Shark Whisperer. There are many videos of her swimming with really large sharks around Hawaii, a very David Attenborough kind of beautiful cinematography.

    The Promised God-Man Is Here has a leela about Avatar Adi Da Samraj interacting with orcas, killer whales at an amusement park that He went to in 1984. Adi Da had front row seats but the orcas were not doing anything… Craig Lessor went to ask the man in charge why the show wasn’t happening:

    He found the man almost in tears. “I don’t understand he moaned. They always do it. At that moment, Craig said, he glanced over to where Avatar Adi Da was sitting, and he noticed that the Ruchira Avatar was intently Regarding the whales. Not only that, His hands were moving in mudras of Spiritual Transmission.

    Craig continued, “You were the reason why the whales were not performing. You were the One behind the whole thing! They were not going to do any jumping–because they were in Samadhi.”

    Avatar Adi Da laughed. He did not deny the ‘Trick’ that day had been His. He simply said: Human beings are not the only beings that I Work with.”

    Avatar Adi Da Samraj: But the humanized animals here, they think they are supposed to being doing all kinds of things, instead of contemplation….

    Human beings are the only species that does this here. The others are all living ages of contemplation. They know the world is not a paradise. It is not to be made into an “eternity”–nor is it presumed or imagined that it could be. They know this very well. So they use conditional existence as a circumstance of contemplation.–pages 585-589

  • Meditation

    “We sat in the magnificently potent and simple Meditation Hall called “Extraordinary Eyes”. It was the most significant meditation of my life. I simply woke up. It became tacitly, obviously, perfectly evident that there was simply One Person. There was only this Conscious One, Who Acknowledged His own Blissful Existence. I could observe Sri Da Kalki’s bodily (human) Form, my own body, and the room itself floating in his Being.”

    Yantra

    “Yantra literally means loom, instrument or machine. In actual practice, a yantra is a symbol which represents aspects of the divine, such as the Mother Goddess or Durga. It is made of interlocking geometric figures, circles, triangles and floral shapes that form a pattern.” from Wikipedia

  • A Journey of Trust

    A Journey of Trust

    Hi all, I just received a biography of Margot Janeway this morning, it’s out now and available on bookbaby. It looks like a very inviting and conversational story of Margot’s interactions and relationship to the World-Friend Adi Da.

    Margot Janeway was born in 1937, just moments before her twin sister. Born premature and weighing just four pounds, she had to fight to survive from the moment she was born. She has been aware of her own mortality and a Divine Mystery beyond this physical realm for as long as she can remember. This spiritual memoir—overflowing with grace-given intuitions, experiences and insights, and with the warmth and wonders of human and Divine Love—was written by Margot in response to the abundant blessings of her Divinely Realized Spiritual Master Adi Da Samraj, who has helped her survive and learn from the many trials and heartaches she has faced. Her trust in Adi Da has been the foundation of her life.
