The Purpose of My bodily (human) Appearance here is the Divine Liberation of all of humankind – not merely the human beings of the East or human beings of the West, but all human beings (and, indeed, all beings and things altogether).

Courses

Adidam Europe provides courses about Adi Da Samraj and The Spiritual Way He Offers. All courses can be participated in online via Zoom. If you have any questions about the courses please send us an email at info@adidam.eu.

In this online course we will study The Avatar of What Is. This book by Carolyn Lee gives a wonderful introduction to the life and work of Adi Da Samraj, from His birth to the present, and brings an understanding of the uniqueness of Adi Da within the context of the great tradition of human wisdom and spirituality.

The course consists of four online sessions via Zoom. Each session covers two chapters of the book, and we consider questions, show videos of Adi Da Samraj and tell stories related to the subject of the evening. The course will be guided by Rénée Pierrot and Bart Lohr, two long-time devotees of Adi Da Samraj who are also hosting the “Where is Happiness” retreats at the European Danda. Since we have participants from different countries the course will be in English, but we can assist in Dutch, French, German and Spanish.

For the course you will need a copy of The Avatar of What Is. The book is available in our online Bookshop. The e-book is available at Amazon. (Important: If you buy the paperback elsewhere please get the 2018 or 2019 edition – not the 2007 edition) 

An introduction to “radical” devotion, right life, and “Perfect Knowledge”, the essential elements of the Way of Adidam.

This course is based on the most up-to-date instructions and teachings of Avatar Adi Da, which simplify and clarify the foundation and practice of the Way of Adidam.

In five bi-weekly session we study and consider the text of the book The Reality-Way of Adidam: The Divine Process That Outshines All Seeking in the Perfect Freedom of Reality Itself.

Additionally, there is study and review of the sacred vows of eternal devotion and of second congregation practice, and study about the requirement for self-discipline in order for there to be real growth in the process of Divine Self-Realization.

Having learned more about the Life and Teaching of Avatar Adi Da Samraj, we will investigate in this course what egoless spiritual practice means for our daily life. What is spiritual practice if it is not about seeking, improving yourself or attaining anything for a presumed separate persona? We will study the book The Gift of the Eight-Part Admonition which gives a good introduction to the basic principles of the spiritual practice Adi Da Offers to His devotees. The course consists of four bi-weekly online sessions via Zoom. In between the sessions you are invited and encouraged to experiment with the practices we consider in the sessions.

For this course you will need a copy of The Gift of the Eight-Part Admonition. The book is available in our online Bookshop.
