"if God is everything and everywhere, then what is all the searching about?"

Best question I've heard you ask, Solon! And your facetious answer is:

"poach a couple of eggs, grab some toast and play a game of tennis.

It COULD be that the real answer is somewhat DEEPER than that but maybe your "raison d'etre" is asking questions
rather than answering them in ways that would threaten your already existing "gadfly" point of view........?

Relative to Adi Da, I do understand that you are not what I would call a red-hot prospect to become a devotee BUT:

-- have you ever heard Adi Da speak? live? recorded?
-- have you ever been in his personal company?
-- ever read any of his books?
-- besides me have you ever encountered any of his devotees?

If the answer is NO to these, then I would say you have developed a bit of ATTITUDE based on not very much direct evidence.

So the question is:

Does this ATTITUDE talk about Adi Da or Solon?

What about the notion of "Reality is in the eye of the beholder?"

Namaste!
