It is not sufficient just to always remember that this is not paradise, that this is mortality-land, everything passes. . . .
You must realize that your heart-disposition . . . cannot be satisfied with anything less than Infinite, Absolute Happiness, or Divine Realization. And on the basis of that dual sensitivity, I Call you to respond to Me.
—Avatar Adi Da Samraj
June 20, 1995
Disc One: The Dual Sensitivity At The Origin of The Divine Way of Adidam
On the first night, Avatar Adi Da spoke with His devotees about how they distract themselves from mortality by fixating on passing pleasures and self-fulfillment, in their relationships and in ordinary life altogether—and He points out how this effort suppresses the heart’s impulse to True Happiness.
Disc Two: The Dual Sensitivity As Expressed In Buddhism and Advaitism
On the second night, Avatar Adi Da discussed how the tradition of Buddhism is characterized by the sensitivity to the mortal condition, and the tradition of Advaitism is characterized by sensitivity to the heart’s impulse to Realize the Happiness beyond conditional existence. Through this in-depth analysis, Avatar Adi Da also clarifies the sympathetic likenesses between these traditions and the Reality-Way of Adidam, and simultaneously clarifies the unique “dual sensitivity” that is fundamental to the Reality-Way of Adidam.
Versions of these Discourse-recordings were originally published separately as The Urge to Happiness (June 20) and Buddhism, Advaitism, and the Way of Adidam (June 21). “The Dual Sensitivity At The Origin of The Divine Way of Adidam” (June 20) also appears in print-form in The Only Complete Way To Realize The Unbroken Light of Real (Acausal) God. Avatar Adi Da fully elaborates on the traditions of Advaita Vedanta and Buddhism in The Gnosticon.
