Happiness Is Prior to Pleasure and Need

"Love is truly expressed only through Divine Communion, through the relinquishment of the need-connection. This relieves you from the agony of egoic relatedness. . . . Love is liberal. Love grants freedom. Love is free energy. Love is Divine."

Adi Da Samraj

Adi Da Samraj describes in this CD the necessity for self-understanding in our search for pleasure and in our attachments particularly in the domain of sexuality and intimate relations. This search, Adi Da reveals, must be understood and transcended in true Spiritual Communion with the Divine.

"On Love" Adi Da on the Nature and Practice of True Love:

". . . The word love represents a profound concept and reality, but the word itself tends to be used very casually. People commonly say that they "love" this or that, meaning something quite different from what the word love rightly and truly signifies.

"Love" is a word that rightly refers to the universal Sacrifice of ego-self. Real love is a matter of self-transcendence (or going beyond your limitations in relation to others) but, in the late-time circumstance of vulgarized culture, the word love has come to be used in relation to whatever satisfies your inclinations, or fulfills your desires, or (otherwise) somehow compensates for limitations in your life by pleasing you and (thereby) supporting your egoic disposition. None of that has anything to do with real love."
