All Adidam practitioners become devotees not because
they have decided to take up a new belief system or a set of spiritual
techniques, but because they have received a unique Revelation:
they have received the Transcendental Spiritual Transmission of Avatar
Adi Da Samraj.
That there are over
a thousand people around the world who can speak about this
Revelation in personal terms is an extraordinary fact and an uncommon
opportunity for those who have been searching for Spiritual Revelation
themselves. (For that matter, so is the Spiritual fact that there
is no limit whatsoever on the number of people who can receive
Adi Da Samraj's Transmission, if only they knew about It and did
what was necessary to make themselves available to It.)
Not all devotees are speakers, but all devotees are
missionaries.
Avatar Adi Da Samraj
By no means are all Adidam devotees trained public speakers. The
devotees of Adi Da Samraj come from all walks of life:
from computer professionals, to artists, to business owners and
employees, to housewives and househusbands. Some are over seventy
years old, some are eighteen. Some have just become devotees, while
others have been devotees for over thirty years, and, by having
"stayed the course" and by having lived it fully, can
attest to the virtue of this Way.
It may be that if you are, say, a computer professional, you may
get more by speaking with a fellow computer professional, than with
a trained Adidam speaker or missionary. Better yet: do both! But,
whatever you do, do respond to this exceptional Spiritual Opportunity.
The
Sacred Archives of Adidam is based in Middletown, CA.
It is a unique repository of Divine Blessing in the world.
Established during the lifetime of the Divine Avatar, Adi
Da Samraj, the archives was created to protect and preserve
the sacred artifacts of His Life and Work. . . including photographs,
audio and video recordings, original manuscripts and artwork,
and personal and sacred objects.

Alle
sind Eins. Alle sind gleich. Alle bedürfen in gleicher
Weise des Göttlichen Mitgefühls, der Göttlichen
Liebe und des Göttlichen Segens. Alle sind darauf angewiesen,
daß der Faden zum Göttlichen nicht abreißt,
sondern als direkte Verbindung erfahren werden kann. Alle.
Ich Verrichte eine universelle Arbeit. Ich bin hier, um jeden
zu empfangen, zu küssen und zu umarmen — alles,
was in Erscheinung tritt und ist.

Alles
is Een. Iedereen is hetzelfde. Iedereen heeft op dezelfde
manier behoefte aan Goddelijke Compassie, Liefde en Zegening,
iedereen wil dat de verbinding met het Goddelijke zeker en
waarachtig wordt en rechtstreeks wordt ervaren. Daarom geldt
het Bereik van Mijn Werk alle wezens en dingen. Dat is letterlijk
zo. Dit is letterlijk hoe Ik Werk. Ik Ben hier om iedereen
en alles te ontvangen en te kussen en te omarmen — alwat
zich voordoet, al wat bestaat.
