Book Excerpt

Easy Death

Spiritual Wisdom On The Ultimate Transcending
Of Death and Everything Else

 

Pages:1|2|3

Cover Photo from Easy DeathDeath is a universal obligation. It does not matter what sex, race, or religion we are. It does not matter how much money we have. It does not matter what we have accomplished in our lives.

Death is the inevitable "debt" we incur the moment we are born. It can bankrupt the entire accumulation of our experience at any time.

These plain facts — and apparent "problem" — of mortality have always been an essential component of Avatar Adi Da's lifelong "consideration" and His address to humanity.

In the face of the tsunami disaster of December 26, 2004, Adi Da Samraj expressed His profoundly compassionate regard for the residents and tourists on the beaches of Southeast Asia for whom death arrived on the crest of a giant wave. There was no warning, no time for conscious preparation — birth's balance was due on the spot. It was a stark human tragedy of ending on a mass scale.

Given the universal nature of death and its tremendous impact on our world, you might think that the process of death would be of fundamental interest to each of us, every day. You might think that death would be a reality for which we would want to account from the start — to know it, to understand it, to address it head on.

However, Adi Da Samraj has pointed out that most of us — especially in the modern West, and everywhere that consumer culture is proliferating — prefer to ignore death if at all possible. When we are not busy living as if death were not going to happen, we create philosophies that make us feel better about death.

Though philosophical and religious beliefs offer consolations to the mind, they do not eliminate the suffering of our mortality or give us definitive knowledge of what happens after death.

Adi Da Samraj does not offer reassuring promises of a "beautiful future" for all via mere belief in His Revelation. Neither does He idealize what can be achieved or experienced in a human lifetime.

Throughout His Life, Avatar Adi Da has never been satisfied with the "stock answers" to death — neither the exoteric promises of religious hope, nor the esoteric efforts of Spiritual "escape", nor the bleak dogma that "when you're dead, you're dead".

Adi Da Samraj was born in and as and from the "Bright" Reality in which there is neither birth nor death. Thus, His devotees know Him to be the Divine Avatar — One Who has manifested in the human world by "crossing down" from the Deathless Condition.

Even as a child, He knew that Truth inherently transcends the pain of loss and ending. And His entire Lifetime has been spent unlocking that Ultimate Condition from limited views and offering a way for anyone to Realize It directly — free of myth, belief, or strategy.
