An ancient text says: “Mankind does not know. Only the Horse knows.” Therefore, you must grasp the tail of the Horse, the God-Realizer. . . The Horse takes you - I take you - Where there is to go.
Dear Friends,
In response to the developing coronavirus pandemic, Adidam Chicago is suspending all on-location events until it is deemed safe for people to gather again. This is true of all Adidam Centers around the world. However, we continue to introduce Adi Da Samraj to people by making great offerings available online—including hosted screenings of the award-winning Conscious Light film and a series of monthly webinars about Adi Da Samraj and His Spiritual Teachings. We invite you to participate online. Here is a current listing of online Adidam programs being offered:
When individuals take up something to do with spirituality, they are usually looking for techniques to have more balance, feel better in the body, calm the mind, rid oneself of stress etc. However, Adi Da Samraj clarifies that real Spiritual practice is not about “feeling good.” Especially in the beginning of one’s spiritual practice, there is an intense purification of all limits on feeling. It is this limitation of feeling that has to be purified and transformed for the real spiritual process to take hold.
In this webinar, devotees Leah Fleisher and Max Rykov will talk about how Adi Da works uniquely with each individual to serve the process of brightening and spiritual transformation. The presenters will share elements of Adi Da’s wisdom to describe what occurs when one is allowing for reception of Adi Da’s spiritual transmission. This webinar is a conversation and participants are encouraged to share their response or ask questions.

In recent decades, yoga and meditation have become a regular part of the daily lives of millions of people around the world. Through these and other so-called “spiritual” practices, people develop stronger bodies, more personal discipline, better health, better relationships, and the ability to better manage the stress of modern life. But what if these benefits are not enough? What if it has become clear to you that, despite your best efforts, life does not, and cannot ever, “work out” to produce lasting satisfaction and immunity to the inherent suffering and mortality of life.
In conversation with webinar hosts Ben Grisso and Vanessa Kenoyer, we’ll consider the limits of “personal growth” and bettering oneself. The webinar will include several video excerpts of Adi Da Samraj talking about the necessity of a “positive disillusionment” with the limits of this life, required by human beings before they can enter into a truly free and liberating spiritual process.
