Mitch:

Thanks for the post. I had seen that comment before, but
not in conjunction with the other material.

Over the years quite a bit has been written about Adi Da,
both complimentary and some negative.

He has 4 daughters; this is alarming to some people who
expect a Spiritual Master to be a celibate.

His Teaching from the start has been sex-positive. This has disturbed some people, who think it should be otherwise.

One can be a devotee and be either a heterosexual or homosexual--providing one is in a committed relationship.
This alarms some people who think homosexuality is a sin.

Adi Da is about as far away from being a buttoned-down
cleric as can be imagined. However, in my experience, he is a very loving, entirely responsible person of great brilliance. And while he is certainly not the only Spiritual figure of stature in the world today, I know of
nobody who has taken on the task of developing a complete
Teaching in the mannner that he has.

Namaste!

Jim
