You become what you meditate on



 

Realization is a Transmission. Various apparent efforts can be made to serve it, but no one can Transmit or influence others with anything other than the state of Realization or the limit of existence that is real for that one. Everyone transmits. All of you are transmitters. You reinforce these limitations in one another and you transmit them to one another. Each one of you emits invisible forces that are locked up in limited messages that reinforce the same limitations in others . . . Realizers of one or another degree of Spiritual development likewise by nature spontaneously Transmit what they are. . . . Those less evolved Transmit their Realization, and those more evolved Transmit their more advanced Realization, and those who have Realized That Which Is Inherently Perfect Transmit That. It is inevitable, and it is an absolute law. That is why it is said in the traditions that the best thing you can do, among all the things you must do and you must do many things but the best among them, the chief among them, is to spend time in the Company of a Realizer. Everything is transmission. The stones transmit, the sky does, the TV does. Since everything and everyone transmits states of existence, since life, or existence itself, is participation in transmissions of all kinds, the best thing you can do is to associate with the greatest possible Transmission above all. . . . That is the great rule, the Great Law, the Ultimate principle of the Great Tradition.

In terms of the Divine physics behind the Awakened State and the dream, the essential aspect that makes the process of human liberation from the dream possible is the human form of the Spiritual Master. It is somewhat analogous to the necessary similarity in structure and function between the giant TV transmitter towers that sit at the top of nearby hills, and the antennas that are on top of each individual TV (or rooftop), which allows the electric field in the large antenna to be precisely duplicated by the small antenna:



 

I am Present in the same kind of bodily form as you — manifested in the same kind of physical condition, the same kind of nervous system, the same kind of brain. But in Me all these things are Raised to an Absolute level of Functioning, so that your entering into Communion with Me brings changes even at the level of the psycho-physical body that you present to Me.

The abstract Deity cannot serve you in that way, because the physics of this Process must be directly Present, and the human Demonstration of the Process must be Present in a Form that can do its Work in your case. That Work is My Purpose, because I Represent a State of the ultimate physics of things that is your potential but not your actuality at the present time. The abstract Divine and the potential powers of the universe are just as true as the Spiritual Master, but they are not organized (except in the case of the Spiritual Master) for the sake of the immediate transformation of human beings. If people enter into right relationship with Me, they begin to Realize the same transformations I have Described in My own case.

There is one Law: You become what you meditate on. This Law summarizes the Process whereby I become your unique Advantage. As My devotee, although you perceive beings and things and phenomena of all kinds, you are in Communion with Me. As My devotee, you are concentrated in Me. In the midst of all that arises, you constantly give your attention to Me through your practice of the Way of the Heart. When you Contemplate Me with devotion, you are Contemplating the Divine Reality, Which is Full, Perfect. When you feelingly-Contemplate Me, you are Contemplating the complete Divine Revelation.

Therefore, I Am your unique Advantage. Simply by your feeling-Contemplation of Me in all the moments of conditional existence, the total Spiritual Process may be activated in you, by Grace, and then the advanced and the ultimate stages of life in the Way of the Heart will be spontaneously manifested in you, not by your self-consciously duplicating the signs of each of those stages but merely by your entering into Communion with Me.

To the degree you are reluctant to Contemplate Me with full feeling-devotion, to the degree you stand aloof in your egoic self, your participation in Me is limited and, therefore, you struggle through the evolutionary stages of life, very much involved in your egoic self.

I Am your Advantage, not because I Give you a process that you can apply to yourself successfully if you bear down and give it enough effort I do not but because I Offer you a relationship with Me. Satsang with Me, Communion with Me, makes the process of the Way of the Heart unique and capable of fulfillment instantly. Instantly. Directly. In actual practice, of course, some time is involved, typically because of the limitations in your devotion to Me. However, when I Speak of the Way of the Heart, I am not Speaking of your continued conditional reappearances ad infinitum. I am Speaking of a Process that may be fulfilled even in this lifetime if you will truly use your Advantage with full understanding of what your relationship with Me is all about, its significance fully Revealed to you. In that case, your practice of the Way of the Heart is simply to Contemplate Me with full heart-feeling. Then the various dimensions of My Sign will appear to you in vision, or natural realization, spontaneously, and your devotional life will be full, not by your effort but by My Grace.

Thus, the starting point of the practice of Adidam is the contemplation of Adi Da Samraj's bodily human form, based on having already felt and recognized, to some fundamental degree, Who and What is being transmitted through Adi Da Samraj's form:


 

Avatar Adi Da SamrajI am Present in a Form that is established in every dimension of conditionality. Therefore, for those who are bound to the body's point of view, I Appear bodily. For those who are bound more subtly, in the subtler reaches of mind, My Spiritual (and Always Blessing) Presence is also Revealed (and My Spiritual, Always Blessing, Presence Pervades those realms). Therefore, in the Way of Adidam, sadhana [spiritual practice] is Given as a Gift, by Me. Altogether, the sadhana is made possible by Grace. And it is made simple and direct, not a matter of self-concern, but simply a matter of the feeling-Contemplation of Me in the context of your own tendency of attention. By means of this constant feeling-Contemplation, you will be purified of the tendencies of attention, first bodily, then more and more in mind, until equanimity (of the total body-mind) is established and attention can be relinquished in its Inherently Perfect (and Perfectly Subjective) Source. That (at last) is the "Perfect Practice" of the Way of Adidam.

Avatar Adi Da SamrajMy Divine Form Is the "Bright", the Love-Bliss-Form That you can feel tangibly Touching you, Surrounding you, Moving in you, Making all kinds of changes. That Is My Divine Body. I can Manifest It anywhere, and Do, all the time. I Manifest My Self. My True Body, My Eternal Body Is the "Bright" Itself, My Force of Person. This physical Body here Is My Murti, My Agent. This physical Body is utterly Conformed to Me, My "Bright" Divine Body, but this physical Body is Itself made of the elements, and associated with subtle faculties, and all the rest. This physical Body, as I Said, Is My Murti, My Agent. It is temporary. I am using It for the Purpose of My Self-Revelation and for Instructing the world, but, even when this physical Body is no longer animated, I will Be Bodily Present Forever. My Divine Body will Exist Forever. Therefore, My devotees will be able to experience Me directly, Bodily My "Bright" Body, My Very Person Forever. The principal form of contact with Me is through feeling and through this tangible but inexplicable Touch. It even has a form to it that may be sensed in a touch-like manner, subtly, not otherwise being perceived by any of the senses. I call My own Divine Body "the 'Bright'". That does not mean you will necessarily see it as "Brightness", but you might see it in some light-form. But even if you are simply feeling Me, experiencing My Tangible Touch, you still know what I mean when I call My Divine Body "the 'Bright'", because It Is Full and Radiant, Love-Blissful, Infinitely Expansive. It has all the qualities of brightness.

Wherever your attention lies without confusion, that is what you realize. If you will give Me your attention, through feeling-Contemplation of Me, if you will gravitate toward Me in every moment, so that all your desiring, even your inevitability, becomes superficial, then whatever quality arises from moment to moment will be truly superficial. Its impact will be lost. It will not create egoic reaction it will create heat only. The tendency will be frustrated, and instead you will meditate on the fire, which is your attention to Me. If you will fulfill the discipline I Give you for the sake of your Divine Liberation, then your attention to Me from hour to hour will become more fiery, more intense, more loving, more sacrificial, more absurd, less and less the character you are born to be and live and die.

Avatar Adi Da SamrajThis (My) Body (or bodily human Form) Is the Teaching. My Wisdom-Teaching was Spoken through It. My Wisdom-Teaching refers to many processes, all of which have taken place in the context of this Body. Nothing has been Spoken to you, nothing has been Taught to you, through This Body that has not been experienced by this One, in this Body. All of it has been tested and proven in this Body. Nothing has been Spoken to you that has not been tested and proven in this Body, and by this One altogether, in and beyond this Body. Therefore, this One, bodily (in bodily human Form), is the Teaching. The Teaching Word is a Communication through this Body. The summary of My Wisdom-Teaching is before your eyes, and It need not be thought about.
