Introduction

A Talk From The Aletheon

Divine Self-Realization is absolutely uncommon.

It is a process that belongs to the future “evolution” of humankind—at best, thousands, millions, billions of years in the future, for the human race as a whole.

At present, almost all human beings persist in an infantile developmental moment that has nothing whatsoever to do with the Ultimate Truth.

As a general rule, human beings are still dependent, violent, ego-possessed—still seeking consolations in the realm of changes.

Therefore, do not imagine for a moment that right and true practice of the only-by-Me Revealed and Given Reality-Way of Adidam (or Adidam Ruchiradam) is an easy matter, that you can simply Listen to My Teaching-Argument and (thereby) Realize the Intrinsically egoless and Self-Evidently Divine Self-Nature, Self-Condition, and Self-State of Reality Itself.

Real Spiritual life has nothing to do with the childishness people tend to dramatize in relationship to the Spiritual Master. I Criticize that Childish (or Dependent) approach more directly than most people do. Others are merely petulant about the necessity of the relationship to the Spiritual Master, in the “self”-righteous mood of Adolescence.

Both the childish approach and the adolescent approach to the Spiritual Master are forms of destructive nonsense and must be overcome. However, the mature, ego-surrendering relationship to the Spiritual Master is absolutely Lawful and necessary. Those who object to that relationship might as well object to the relationship between the Earth and the Sun.

Most people are willing to sacrifice things, but not themselves.

They are willing to pay cash, in other words, for a quick salvation.

Such “Religious Consumerism” is an ancient ritual of worship, but it is false and futile. True worship is the surrender of your own body-mind-“self” in Truth Itself, in the Living and Transformative Company of the Spiritual Master.

People absolutely resist such surrender, because they know nothing about it.

Human beings are, in fact, subhuman in their present level of adaptation. Devotional surrender of the egoic “self” represents a future stage of development for humanity as a species.

In their present actual, literal, psycho-physical condition, human beings are incapable of such surrender.

They must be drawn out of that limited condition, and into another state of existence.

And it is as far to go from where they are now to Most Perfect Divine Self-Realization as it is from the amoeba in the primal mud of the Earth to a human being. Every aspect of your existence—even the body—must change dramatically.

[…]

In other words, something in the Super-Physics of the universe makes it possible for the Divine Conscious Light to Avatarically Incarnate as an apparent human individual, for the Purpose of Bringing others into the Sphere of Divinely Enlightened Existence.

[…]

True Spiritual life is not just a change in your mind. Much more than an “inner awakening” or a “good feeling” about everything must take place. The literal physics of your entire existence must change. The physical body and its energies must be literally transformed. Real Spiritual processes do not occur as a result of the “subjective” nonsense of vicarious belief and vicarious salvation that people usually associate with “religion”—as if Real Awakening were merely a matter of asking some silly question or going to a few lectures for the weekend.

That is not Divine Enlightenment. Divine Enlightenment is a literal change of the whole body.

[…]

Rather, the changes that must occur are psycho-physical changes—just as literal as if you were to acquire more legs and arms, except that the most dramatic changes occur in dimensions other than the shape of the physical body.

[…]

Nevertheless, those changes are as literal as the “evolutionary change” from a dinosaur to a human being—and they are as dramatic as that, but they principally occur at more subtle levels of the physics of the conditional being. There are literal changes in the nervous system, literal changes in the chemistry of the body, literal changes in the structural functioning of the brain. You cannot realize such changes in a weekend. They are a living process of growth—but they can be quickened and intensified through right practice, and real ego-transcending discipline, in My Divine Avataric Company.

[…]

Such devotional turning to Me requires the disposition of limitless “self”-Sacrifice into the Absolute Intensity of Which all conditional manifestations are stepped-down intensities (or conditionally apparent modifications).

It is not as if you are a robot that is being transformed by some computer—no. The Process is a living and human relationship to Me.

But that Process has nothing to do with the conventional “doctor-patient” and “mommy-daddy-baby” games. Irresponsible people cannot enter into this Process. If you are irresponsible, you feel that you are the victim of events, the victim of your own reactivity coinciding with events. You presume that you have to analyze those events, and analyze your reactivity, and (thereby) discover what is to be blamed for your current state. Such is the “worldly” model of life, which is based entirely on the Principle of Egoity

[…]

To live a right and effective life requires that you embrace the principle of responsibility—by turning whole bodily to Me, understanding your own activity of “self”-contraction, and changing your life on that basis. Past events do not control your life—you control your life. You are not a victim, and no one is to blame. There is no event whatsoever that is so mighty that you cannot transcend your own reactivity in relation to it. None. Not one event. And not any complex of events. Moment to moment devotional turning to Me is what makes the difference.

[…]

You must be responsible for yourself at the human level, and in a profoundly uncommon way. You must live the discipline of ordinary life. You yourself must be love under all ordinary, daily conditions. You must make this change in your life. There is no way whereby you can be relieved of this necessity—and nobody else can do it for you.

Personal Notes

The greatest longing of the human heart is to know Truth Itself. Not the mere “facts” of any given situation, but the ultimate Truth, the truth of our very being and existence, the truth that liberates us from all ignorance and suffering. Such is Truth for Real. The Super-Physics of Divine Enlightenment A Talk from The Aletheon by HIS DIVINE PRESENCE, AVATAR ADI DA SAMRAJ Divine Self-Realization is absolutely uncommon.

As long as the process in My Divine Avataric Company is one of growth and adaptation and purification, there is the sacrifice of the egoic “self” (or the apparently independent body-mind-complex). My Own Person Is Intrinsically egoless, Transcendental Spiritual, and Self-Evidently Divine in Nature. If It is not as if you are a robot that is being transformed by some computer—no.

Nevertheless, all of that ordinary responsibility simply prepares you for the right relationship to Me (in and As My Divinely-Avatarically-Born bodily human Divine Form and Person). In My Case, however, all these mechanisms are Conformed to an Absolute level of Functioning, such that your entering into Communion with Me brings changes even at the level of the psycho-physical body that you present to Me. No abstract Divine Principle can serve you in that manner—because the physics of this Process must be directly Present, and the bodily (human) Demonstration of the Process must be Present in a Form that can Do Its Work in your case.
