Hi Jared and Brian,.....I posted my intro. with my website links here as a
newbie a week ago and didnt even get a 'welcome' - wow. ( I sent my first post
just before Jared). Anyways....I co-moderate a universalism list and just put a
link to one of Da's commentaries 'God is not elsewhere' ....opening up a
discussion on Gods omnipresence. I used the Beezone site for the link reference.
Anyways,......I find Adi Da's teaching to be of the highest caliber,....however
I am not so sure of his guru-devotee program - I suspect the grace-transmission
from the living physical presence of a teacher is wonderful(darshan),....like in
satsang....but I derive much from the truth within his written work which
resonates with my own inner witness. I've just recently gotten back into
Da....and also reviewed some of the controversial news-stories about his
questionable activities and exposure from ex-cult members who left the group.
Another observation is that Da is looking rather 'otherworldly' as he
ages.....almost a Yoda meets those goldfish with the big eyes look. - Hes
wonderful, cute at times...but in his more serious looks...we're talkin fierce!
Truly a transcendent being. I wonder how old he is these days? - and if travels
much away from his retreat in Fiji.
Still,...I gather the nectar and mine the gold where it may be found and am
enjoying the journey. I'd like to maybe purchase some videos/dvd's of some
recent satsangs/messages if he has any.
Namaste,
paul

Jared,
Very little dialogue, intelligent or otherwise, happens here...What sort of
conversation are you interested in generating?
