The First Stage Of The
Unique Ordeal Of The Divine Heart-Master |
The Second Stage Of The Unique Ordeal Of
The Divine Heart-Master |
The Third Stage Of The
Unique Ordeal Of The Divine Heart-Master |
Adi Da has described His life and work in terms of three stages:
Stage 1: At the individual level, conforming the body-mind
of Franklin Jones to the Divine to the point of Awakening; and,
at the universal level, "Husbanding" the Divine Goddess.
The first stage of My unique Avataric Ordeal as the Divine
Heart-Master was the Process of My Divine Avataric-Incarnation-Birth
here and of my subsequent Avataric Self-Submission to the
Ordeal of My Divine Re-Awakening. The Culmination of this
Ordeal was the Great Divine Event of My "Husbanding"
of the "Divine Goddess". My Mastering of the "Divine
Goddess" is intuitively prophesied in the traditional
myth of the Celestial Stallion Embracing (and Subduing) the
Earth-Mare for the Purpose of Divine Descent, or the Awakening
of all-and-All.

Stage 2: The process of fullest Realization, Acceptance,
and Embrace of His Avataric Divine Status and Work.
The second stage Of My unique Avataric Ordeal As the Divine
Heart-Master was the Process of fullest Realization, Acceptance,
and Embrace of My Avataric Divine Status and Work.

Stage 3: The Emergence of the Divine as all beings, and even the
cosmic totality.
The third (and final) stage of My unique Avataric Ordeal
as the Divine Heart-Master began with the Initiation (or Yogic
Establishment) of My Avataric Divine Self-"Emergence",
on January 11, 1986. My Fullest (now, and forever hereafter)
Avataric Performance of the Divine Ashvamedha began with that
Great Event.
My Avataric Divine Self-"Emergence" is not merely
something I am (as if separately) "Personally" Enduring
in My Avatarically-Born bodily (human) Divine Form, or merely
something I am "Personally" Doing to My Avatarically-Born
bodily (human) Divine Form. Nor is My Avataric Divine Self-"Emergence"
merely an Event that "happened" exclusively to My
Avatarically-Born bodily (human) Divine Form. My Avataric
Divine Self-"Emergence" is a Process in Which, Ultimately,
all beings (and even the cosmic totality) must participate.
