ONENESS AND THE SEPARATE BEING:
Today is the anniversary of Adi Da writing his book called
the Da Love-Ananda Gita (The Free Gift of the Divine Love-Bliss)
Here's a bit from the start of the piece of the same name, which talks to some of what we have been discussing. There are 108 sections in all, if anyone is interested to read the rest, send me a PM or post it here and I will send it to you as a PM.
1.
The (Ultimate) Nature of the world (and how it is arising) is inherently (and tacitly) obvious, if you remain in a state of pleasurable oneness with whatever and all that presently arises.
2.
To remain in a state of pleasurable oneness with whatever and all that presently arises, you must (necessarily, and always presently) Realize inherently Love-Blissful Unity with whatever and all that presently arises.
3.
Inherently Love-Blissful Unity with whatever and all that presently arises is (Itself, or inherently) non-separation (or no-contraction) from whatever and all that presently arises.
4.
Separation (or contraction) from the world (or whatever and all that is presently arising) is (unfortunately) precisely the first and constant (and inherently problematic) thing done by all those who make efforts to find out (or to account for) how the world is arising (and What Is its Ultimate Nature).
5.
Separation (or self-contraction) is the first (and foundation) gesture made by anyone who has a problem, or who is seeking, or who is making an effort to account for anything whatsoever.
6.
Pleasurable oneness (or inherently Love-Blissful Unity) is inherent (or necessarily and priorly the case, no matter what conditions do or do not arise), and (therefore) pleasurable oneness (or inherently Love-Blissful Unity) is (necessarily) uncaused, and Real (or always already the case, and always already in, of, and Identical to Truth)-whereas separateness (or "Difference") is always conditional, conditionally caused (or only conditionally apparent), and illusory (or always already dissociated from Reality and Truth).
7.
Pleasurable oneness (or inherently Love-Blissful Unity) need not (and cannot fruitfully) be sought.
8.
Pleasurable oneness (or inherently Love-Blissful Unity) can be (apparently) lost, by the act of self-contraction (and, thereby, of apparent separation, separateness, and separativeness).
9.
Pleasure-seeking, Love-Bliss-seeking, or Unity-seeking efforts (of any kind) are only parts of a strategic (and always already un-Happy) adventure-and such effort and adventure are entered into only by those who are already (presently) separating (or contracting) themselves in (and from) What Is, and such adventurers are seeking only because they are already, presently, separating (or contracting) themselves in (and from) What Is.
10.
Therefore, it is necessary to understand this (or self-contraction itself), and (by the transcending of self-contraction itself) to Recover Awareness of the obvious (or inherent) Love-Bliss-Unity (and, Thus, to inherently account for everything, and also, Thereby, to solve, or inherently transcend, all problems).
11.
This understanding (and this Recovery) cannot (fruitfully) be sought-for all seeking is inherently associated with an already present act of self-contraction (and, thereby, of separation, separateness, and separativeness).
12.
True understanding is (itself) inherent, or always already, or Native to even (apparently) conditional existence itself.
13.
Therefore, if such understanding is not already Realized in the present, it must (and can only) be Realized by Means of Divine Grace (as a Free Gift).
14.
Aham Da Asmi I Am Da (the Divine Giver), the Person and the Means of this Divine Grace.
15.
I Am Love-Ananda (the Divine Love-Bliss), the Presence and the Way of this Free Gift.
16.
The understanding of which I Speak is (if Most Perfectly Realized) the Most Perfectly Ultimate (or seventh stage) Capability to (inherently) Divinely Self-Recognize whatever arises.
17.
Most Perfect understanding is the Capability to directly (immediately) transcend dilemma, all problems, and all seeking.
18.
Most Perfect understanding is the Capability to "radically" (always already) transcend self-contraction (and all of separation, separateness, and separativeness).
19.
Most Perfect understanding is the Capability inherent in Love-Bliss Itself (Which Is the Heart Itself).
20.
Most Perfect understanding is the Capability inherent in the always already, or most prior, Unity (with Which the Heart Itself, As Love-Bliss Itself, Is inherently One).
21.
I have, by Means of the Submission, Work, and Word of My here-Speaking Avataric Divine Revelation-Body, thoroughly Revealed and Described the Great (and Complete) Process Wherein and Whereby the Heart Itself (or Love-Bliss-Unity Itself) is (Ultimately) Most Perfectly Realized.
22.
That Great (and Complete) Process (Which Is the only-by-Me Revealed and Given Way of Adidam, or the One and Only by-Me-Revealed and by-Me-Given Way of the Heart) is Described (in every detail and elaboration) in My summary (Written, and forever Speaking) Word of Heart (in many Works).
23.
That summary Word is True, and that Great Process Is (indeed) the Process (elaborate in Its totality of details) Wherein the Inherently Perfect Tacit Obviousness (of non-separateness, of no-seeking, of no-contraction, and of Love-Ananda, My Love-Bliss Itself) is (progressively, and, yet, always directly and presently) Realized.
Namaste!
