The Bright

Adi

Adi Da (Samraj), Adidam, Adidas, and Already Did It!!

I could read all of Adi, from the libraries.   I could even buy his Aletheon.   Read his Wikipedia.  I watched his movie.  Maybe I could go to his Mountain of Attention, on a retreat.   Or even Fiji.  What kind of programs do his followers run?  What remains of his religion, without the man himself?  I imagine writing questions.   A kind of chess by mail, to clarify his philosophy.   His heart-way.   Oh well.   Everybody dies.   But I could certainly learn from him, even now. 

His is a mix and melange of spiritual insights.   His Bright recalls Star Wars and the light and dark sides of the force.  Undifferentiated light as Reality itself - how could that not be Enlightenment, lol.  Matter as energy, it seems to be an insight of physics.  Conscious light, a different linguistic take, on the same reality:  Morpheus or the Catholic light of human reason.  Visions, dreams, ideas, insight, movies, photographs.  Not a religion for the blind, I would have to say.   He liked to be smart, intellectual.  Another shade of meaning of The Bright.   Levity is lightness, so a sense of humor too.

Always Look on the Bright Side of Life!

Let there be light!

In other words, 

1. positivity/humor/laughter/smiles/levity/happiness/joy/fun/play - not taking yourself too seriously.   Not taking yourself!  Not taking.   Not-t.   Light-hearted.
2. Enlightenment and knowledge, wisdom, understanding;  grokking God, Reality, Truth, Love.

      The prior condition.   That which is always already the case.  Stillness and change.           Creation, preservation, destruction.  Impermanence, oblivion, death, nihility, absence, oneness with the universe, thingness, decay, and ultimately, being forgotten.   Absurdity and pointlessness.  Seize the day.  You make your own meaning.  Big up yourself, you tiny, infinitesimal speck!  (In a vast, indifferent, neutral universe).

3. Consciousness, being alive, is pervaded by light, visions, ideas, insights, dreams, imagination.   What you sense and perceive, think and feel.  
4. The universe, matter is Energy (a form of which is light).   Our bodies are things.  Photons and rays and sunlight and sunshine.   It’s all light.   Your eyeballs, even!  (and our chemicals were forged in stars).   Our psycho-physical body-mind is something to be transcended.   We are One, in a state of unity.  It is all God.  Being and nothingness. 0&1.
5. Warmth (friendship, community, support); indeed, Love-bliss.  Heart as well as mind.
6. Visual media:  movies, photographs, videos.  Observing Adi (darshan), and his art.
7. Intelligence, a bright mind, brain, degree of realization.  Mastery, superior comprehension.  Alive, awake, aware.   Fully present, in the moment.
8. The Bright.   All the smarts.  Outshining.  Radiating outward, not self-contraction.  Shine your heavenly body, tonight, sings Madonna.  Genius and Brilliance!  Afterglow.

A glowing smile, for the globe

Allah and the All, all in all is all we are

allah, buddha, christ, da, etc. ... yahweh, zurvan

getting old, dying.  good orgasm, death. 

  petit mort, getting hard, rigor mortis, hard and difficult cult

corporate mentality, part of something bigger than yourself

The beauty of a big, bright, brilliant brain, in bliss!

Unity and Love-bliss is God, Universe, Reality, Truth

Awake!  Merrily, life is but a dream?

Deities, de-it tease, teas and t's;  e's and ease

psy optics

Death, the final word (over and under!)

Nitty-gritty of an eternity, infinity, of nullibiety, nihility

Bits and pieces, dust, scattered matter, xx

from self to selflessness: utter annihilation and extinction!

    of self, identity, separateness, personality, individuality, ego

You are not alone.  The universal fate - of everyone and everything.

You simultaneously inhabit the spacious expanse of your head

     but also, your skin, you speck, in a boundless universe

Big up yourself, big down, it makes no difference, nun at all :-)

from alive awake aware to dead asleep oblivious

no state at all, really (gone, over, dead)

gone to god, gone home, planted

what do flowers wear under their petals?  underplants!
