Poor fella just died. This post is dedicated to 'm.
His website says,
"On the morning of His Passing, He had completed His Writing of The Aletheon, the book which He designated as "first and foremost" among all of His Writings. Avatar Adi Da worked on The Aletheon intensively for the last two years, bringing all of His most essential Spiritual and philosophical communications into a final form. The Aletheon is scheduled for publication by The Dawn Horse Press in 2009." You might want to check it out.
and
His Divine Presence Bequeathed to humankind a Legacy of Inexhaustible Profundity and Limitless Blessing-Power.
I like how they capitalize everything :-)
I think the Adidam should put all his books online for free viewing.
Yeah, everybody needs money, but if his books create remarkable change, people will contribute to the cause, if only by referencing the books to other people.
People will always want to buy real, actual, physical books, of course. I don't think the magic of a physical book can ever be replicated, digitally (but maybe not, with virtual reality and stuff...)
I conclude with a quote: "The fundamental delusion of humanity is to suppose that I am here and you are out there. -Yasutani Roshi, Zen master (1885-1973)
