| | Adi Da - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The title his devotees currently use for him is the Ruchira Avatar, Adi Da Samraj, literally "the radiant avatar, primordial giver, universal ruler". |  | | From 1990 to 1991, he was known as Da Kalki, in reference to the Hindu avatar Kalki, the 10th and final incarnation of Vishnu, and from 1991 to 1994 as Da Avabhasa, "Avabhasa" meaning "brightness". |  | | In the latter book Adi Da repeatedly emphasizes that his disciples's own spiritual awakening necessarily coincides with the progressive revelation of the nature and identity of the spiritual master, whose transmitted Divine Grace is the great means of spiritual advancement. |

| | Adi Da |
 | | When Avatar Adi Da Samraj is addressed as "the Ruchira Buddha" this does not mean that He is part of the historical tradition of Buddhism. |  | | Avatar Adi Da's devotees recognize Him as the Primordial Being, the Source of all, the Original Divine Person, Da--and He is the Avatar, the bodily Revelation of that One. |  | | Avatar Adi Da Samraj is the unique Revelation of the "Bright"--and, because this is so, He is the "Ruchira Avatar", or the "Shining Divine 'Descent'", the Appearance of the Divine in bodily (human) Form. |

 | | While some of Adi Da's teaching bears a close similarity to aspects of Hinduism, Buddhism, the messianic traditions of Judaism and Christianity, and other spiritual traditions (subjects with which Adi Da is said to be closely familiar), Adi Da argues that his teaching is based on his own direct spiritual realization. |  | | Adi Da has repeatedly emphasized that Adidam is based on the revelation of who he is, which he contrasts with religions that he considers to be "belief-based", such as Christianity. |  | | Adi Da states that his realization, although hinted at by a few historical religious figures and traditions, is unprecedented here on Earth or anywhere in the manifest universe, and that he is the unique means for sentient beings to attain such realization now and for all future time. |

 | | Adi Da has written and self-published about 70 books, a remarkable feat of spiritual diarrhea. |  | | There is no realization except through Adi Da, so the postulant in Adidam advances through the spiritual degrees by service to the bodily needs of the living Adi Da. |  | | His doctrine is something to the effect that union with God is the only true reality, and that most people are living in a delusion from which they need to be freed by realization. |
