Dimension 1:
Where Adi Da was in His Seventh-Stage Process

This is Part 5 of Chris Tong's fourteen-part article, A Framework for Exegesis: Understanding Adi Da's Word in Context.

Adi Da has described the seventh stage of life as having four stages of its own: Divine Transfiguration, Divine Transformation, Divine Indifference, and Divine Translation. Each major new development in that process corresponded to a new period of His Work with His devotees (and often a new form of practice), and a new approach to communicating about Himself and the practice of Adidam. The milestones here are major, in that each represents a different and new way in which the Divine Person was integrated with Adi Da's human body-mind. Since the practice of Adidam is based on the response to the Divine incarnating through Adi Da's human body-mind, the form and details of that practice are very much impacted by changes in that Divine Incarnation.
