Contemplative Video of 2025 Image-Art Calendar Images & Quotes

The 2025 Image-Art Calendar, "Transcendental Realism: Self-Portraits of Reality Itself" is now available.

Celebrating 25 years since the "Initiation of Free Light-Imagery" (in June of 2000), the 2025 Image-Art Calendar is a selection of Adi Da’s artistic works from the late 1960s through 2008. Each image exemplifies a unique period of Adi Da’s aesthetic expression, while demonstrating his entire body of artistic work as a singular communication of beauty and profundity beyond "point of view". It is a sublime and enduring communication of Transcendental Realism!

This contemplative video is a reading of the quotes accompanying the images on the calendar, along with the images themselves.

Music is "Noon Dreams", from John Wubbenhorst, Bansuri Dreams.

An Introduction to Avatar Adi Da Samraj

An introductory video from The Adi Da Foundation.


Human History Is One Great Tradition

An excerpt from Track 5 ("A Basic Education In The Great Tradition") of the CD, Human History Is One Great Tradition, an Avataric Discourse given by Avatar Adi Da August 19, 2004.

In response to a devotee's question about Zen Buddhism and Spiritual Transmission, Avatar Adi Da discusses how the various schools of religious and Spiritual expression fit within one "Great Tradition".

Adi Da Samraj discusses how the various manifestations of Buddhism fit within the Great Tradition< /a> of human religion and Spirituality. Avatar Adi Da's Schema of the seven stages of life provides a tool for understanding all traditions based on the actual three-part structure of the human mechanism — the gross (or "outer" physical) dimension, the subtle (or "inner") energetic-emotional-mental) dimension, and the causal (or "root") dimension (which is the presumption of existence as a separate "I").

Avatar Adi Da also describes the qualities of real Spiritual Transmission in various traditions, and closes with a discussion of belief-based myths and how “religious provincialism” is transcended through the guidance offered in His Basket of Tolerance.

The Location of Happiness

An excerpt from Track 2 ("Understand Your Un-Happiness") of the CD, The Location of Happiness, a Discourse given by Avatar Adi Da on November 28, 1981.

In this Discourse, Avatar Adi Da describes the Nature of True Happiness and how it can be Realized moment to moment — not through seeking but through whole bodily Communion with the One Who Is Happiness. Formerly titled "The Bodily Location of Happiness", this updated edition of the CD is remastered and expanded, with 13 additional minutes of content.

You Can't Get There From Here (excerpt)

An excerpt from Track 3 (entitled "Realization Has No self") of the CD, You Can Get There From Here.

The famous punch line "You can't get there from here" is Avatar Adi Da's starting point for this engaging Discourse. He uses this humorous paradox to perfectly crystallize the condition of all who are caught in the trap of seeking.

"The 'self' can't get to God", Avatar Adi Da clarifies, because the act that generates the sense of "self" is the act of recoil from the Divine. Life is rightly lived not by concentrating on "fixing" this recoil but as the feeling-embrace of the requirements and conditions of existence. And Avatar Adi Da offers the Way "out" of the trap of "self" -and-"other": Locate the supreme attractiveness of His Radiant Divine State, and "self" is dissolved in "Brightness".

The Asana of Science (Excerpt)

An excerpt from Track 1 of the CD, The Asana of Science — A Discourse Given by His Divine Presence, Avatar Adi Da Samraj on October 25, 1980.

In this Discourse, Avatar Adi Da Samraj speaks about the false presumptions that are the basis of the conventional scientific point of view. He also describes our inherent participation in Reality — and He calls us to understand the limitations of present-day and traditional dogmas, by observing and considering our condition altogether.

Fluid Force, Fat Water: The Da Chi Gong Leela

Ted Progler has been a devotee of Adi Da since 1976. He was a long term practitioner of the "Original Daoist 8 Limbs (or Schools) of Chinese Medicine", wherein Chi Gong is the 2nd School. Ted apprenticed with Lao Ge (aka Charles Belyea), the lineage holder of Original Medical Daoism in the United States and co-founder of the Five Branches University of Traditional Chinese Medicine. From early 2001 until the Divine Mahasamadhi of Adi Da Samraj in late November 2008, Ted was instructed directly by Adi Da in His "Systems-Based Approach to Health & Healing" and His Right Life Yogic Conductivity practices. Ted now only practices and teaches Adi Da's "Systems-Based Approach to Health & Healing", which is a subset of Right Life Yogic Conductivity.

In Ted's depth research and practice of human health and healing over 35 years, it is his personal proclamation that, just as Adi Da Samraj "completed" the Spiritual Dharmas of the Great Traditions of Spirituality, so too did He "complete" the Wisdom practices of human health and healing with His Systems-Based Approach to Health and Healing. The Systems-Based Approach to Health and Healing of Adi Da Samraj is the most fully integrated Health and Healing Systems for human beings, fully integrating how to cooperatively participate with all scales and forms of Reality existence for the purpose of supporting fullest Divine Realization Practice. If you are interested in receiving information about the Systems-Based Approach to Health and Healing of Adi Da Samraj, please email Ted at tprogler@gmail.com.

In this audio clip, Ted tells a leela about a gathering with Adi Da during the “Dancing Down the Light” gathering period. The gathering took place in early March, 2001, in the entry hall of Adi Da’s residence, the Manner Of Flowers, at the Mountain Of Attention.

In the gathering, Ted gave Adi Da a description and demonstration of his Chi Gong practice. Adi Da then talked extensively about Chi Gong, Gong, Chi, Da Chi Gong, and the larger context of energy conductivity with the devotees who were present. Adi Da also talked about the process of making His Image-Art, and how difficult that was for Him physically, requiring a profound conductivity practice.

Michael Shaw and James Alwood (who also were at the same gathering with Adi Da) contribute additional commentary on occasion.

For more about conductivity practice, read Adi Da’s book, Conductivity Healing.

In this discourse, a student of Adi Da asks Him for suggestions to help her dying mother. Adi Da then responds both with compassion and also with very practical advice on how to serve the dying.

Inspect and Understand Your Inherited Mind

This is a video excerpt from the DVD, Inspect and Understand Your Inherited Mind.

In this first volume of The Universal Tradition Video Series, Avatar Adi Da invites His listeners to participate in a study and consideration of the traditions of humankind (which He describes as collectively forming a single “Great Tradition”). Such consideration, He Says, is an essential foundation for questioning the perceptions and beliefs that have been unconsciously inherited from these traditions. He Reveals the Unity from which all traditions arise—the Truth that is Prior to every “point of view”—and urges everyone to transcend all presumptions of non-unity, which give rise to conflict (both individually and collectively).
