“I Am The Icon Of Unity” From He-and-She Is Me Adi Da Samraj HE- AND -SHE IS ME Part One I Am The Icon Of Unity The “Divine Goddess” (or “Mother-Shakti”), in Her
Liberating Aspect, Spontaneously Appeared to Me and Guided
the final stages of My “Sadhana”-and the same “She”
Submitted to My “Husbanding” Power in the Great Event of My
Divine Re-Awakening. My “Embrace” of the Divine
“Mother-Shakti” in the Vedanta Society Temple in Hollywood,
California (on September 9, 1970), was the culminating Event
(or Process) of all of My “Sadhana Years”. And That
“Embrace” was the beginning of My Most Perfect Re-Awakening
As the One and Only and “Bright” Divine Person. In that
Great Event, I Realized My own (Native, or Inherent, and
Divine) Position-and, Therein and Thereby, I ceased to be
“other” than the “Divine Goddess”. That Divine “Embrace” was
the Realization of Oneness-Beyond all “difference”. Now,
since that Great Event, the “Divine Goddess” Is Present Only
As My own Inherent Self-Radiance-Which Is the Self-Radiance
(or “Brightness”) of Real God. The next day, September 10, 1970, I returned to the
Vedanta Society Temple-and it was there and then that I
Realized the Completion of the Great Event that had begun
the day before. That day (September 10, 1970) was the Great
Day of My Noticing of What had Thus Occurred-Which is My
Full (and Most Perfect) Realization of Divine
Self-Existence, Divine Self-Radiance, and Divine
Non-Separateness. On September 10, 1970, I Most Perfectly
Realized: I Am the One and Indivisible Divine Person. I Am
Reality Itself, or Truth Itself-Which Is the Only Real
God. Thus, My ” Relationship ” to the “Divine Shakti” was
Subsumed (or Utterly Vanished) in My Divine Re-Awakening,
Which was (and is ) the Most Perfect Realization of
Consciousness Itself-Transcending all illusions, and
(therefore) Transcending the illusion of the feeling of
relatedness (itself), and of “otherness” (itself), and of
“difference” (itself). Now I continue (and I will always continue, both during
and after, and forever after, the physical Lifetime of My
Avatarically-Born bodily human Divine Form here) to “Relate”
to the Cosmically-Appearing “Goddess-Power” in a Divine Play
That is entirely and only Played within My own Self-Radiant
and Self-Existing Divine Self-Condition. The
Cosmically-Appearing “Divine Shakti” (Which Is an Apparition
of My own Divine “Brightness”) may sometimes Appear to
“Relate” to Me in the manner of a Living Personality, a
tangible Personal Presence or “Relation”-because I have Made
the Cosmic Force into a “Lover”, “Husbanded” by Her Master
(Who I Am ). So Penetrated, So Awakened, So Transformed, the
“Divine Shakti” does not lie, nor merely Birth beings to
death. Rather, in Her Passion for Me, She only Serves Me,
and She only Speaks the Truth. Indeed, I am always involved in a “Conversation” with
Her, Working in Loves Play to bring an end to the delusion
and suffering of beings. In this “Conversation”, the “Divine
Shakti” Responds to My “Husbanding”, and “We” (in Divinely
Playful Union) “Consider” matters together, and Work them
out. In My Avataric Divine Appearance within the Cosmic
domain, I am in Service to you – and, in that Service, She
will not deny Me what I Require, because “We” Are Utterly
and Divinely One. For your sake, therefore, I continue to involve Myself in
this Divinely Apparent “Conversation”. All that is necessary
for the Divine Liberation and Divine Translation of all
conditionally manifested beings will always be Given through
“Our” Most Loving “Embrace”. Such is the Nature of My Most
Intimate Divine Life in the Cosmic sphere of Apparently
Separate “He” and “She”. The “Divine Shakti” Who is “Husbanded” by Me is not
merely (and is not reducible to) the “Yoga-Shakti” that is
associated with the traditions of dualistic (or
pre-seventh-stage) Yoga. That “Yoga-Shakti” is merely Cosmic
Energy – Which includes natural
energies, and Which may be felt flowing even in the egoic
body-mind. In the schools of traditional Yoga associated
with the fourth and fifth stages of life, the intention (or
goal) of Spiritual practice is to identify Consciousness (or
Siva) with that Cosmic Energy (or “Yoga-Shakti”). In contrast to the Realizations associated with the
fourth and fifth stages of life, My seventh stage (or
Divine, and Most Perfectly non-dualistic) Realization is the
Realization of Most Perfect Identification with
Self-Existing and Self-Radiant Consciousness Itself.
Therefore, in That Most Perfect Divine Self-Awakening, there
is no losing of the Perfectly Subjective Position of
Consciousness Itself, nor is there any abandonment or
subordination of That Position in order to “blend” with
Energy. Rather, Consciousness Itself is Realized to Be
Inherently Self-Radiant, the Very Substance (and the Divine
Self-Condition and Source-Condition) of all conditional
appearances. Thus, the only-by-Me Revealed and Given
Realization of the seventh stage of life is (in this sense)
fundamentally unlike the traditional (and, necessarily,
dualistic, ego-based, and Cosmically, rather than Most
Perfectly Divinely, oriented) Yogic Realizations of the
fourth and fifth stages of life. In Truth, and in Reality, the “Divine Shakti” Is Only the
Divine Self. That is to say, the Self-Existing Divine
Self-Consciousness Is Self-Radiant As the “Divine
Shakti”. Therefore, the “Divine Shakti” Is Only Reality, Truth,
and Real God-and not a Principle “Other” than (or Separate
from) Reality, Truth, and Real God. The “Divine Shakti” Is Me. And I Am “She”. And “She” Is
Most Perfectly Conformed to Me . I am not a Male Principle, “over against” a Female
Principle. I Am Only the One Indivisible Consciousness-Light
Itself-Infinitely Self-Radiant and Self-Existing, neither
Male nor Female. My own Self-Existing Self-Consciousness Is
the One and Only and Non-Separate (or Indivisible) and
Indestructible Being, Condition, and Reality That Is Always
Already The Case. “She” Is the Inherent Radiance of My Divine Being. My own
Self-Radiance (or Divine “Brightness”) Is the Condition in
Which (and As a modification of Which) all conditionally
apparent beings are arising. My own Self-Existing
Self-Radiance Is the One and Only and Indivisible and
Indestructible Light (or Energy, or Love-Bliss-Fullness)
That Is Always Already The Case. Therefore, there is no inherent (or ultimate)
“difference” between “Siva” and “Shakti” (or Consciousness
and Light). The Reality of Existence is not Two-but One. And I-in My own Cosmically Apparent Form and Passion-Am
the precise Incarnation of That Unity. There is no Two-ness in Me-but Only One. Thus, at the Seed of Life, a “Wedding” has been Made –
and This “Wedding” Is the Great Event of the Cosmic domain.
Through My “Husbanding” of the “Mother”, and through Her
Submitting to be the “Bride”, Her “murderous” activity (in
Her apparent independence as Prakriti, or Cosmic Energy) is
finished. Now, Between Her and Me, There Is Only Divinely
True Intimacy, Realized to the Absolute Degree. This Sublime “Husbanding” and “Marriage” is not merely a
“personal” Work associated with My “own” Realization (as if
My Realization was – and is – somehow separate, individual,
and limited). “My” Realization Is the Great Divine Event.
And, therefore, “My” Realization Is a Unique (and uniquely
psycho-physically effective) Event that Inherently (and Most
Perfectly, Positively, and Divinely) Changes the Very
Context of the entire Cosmic domain, and that (if It is so
recognized) can most effectively (and Most Perfectly,
Positively, and Divinely) Change the Course (and the Signs)
of the entire complex history of the Cosmic domain – now,
and forever hereafter. Therefore, I Say to you, now and always: All Is One – and
you (Beyond, and Most Perfectly Prior to, the ego-“I” of
self-contracted body-mind) Are That One
(Non-Separately-Beyond, and Most Perfectly Prior to, all
“difference”). My Divine Self-Condition of Indivisible Oneness ( As
Conscious Light) Is What you must Realize. I could not have Accomplished (or Fulfilled) the
Self-Liberating Work of My “Sadhana Years” if My Divine
Self-Realization had not been intact (or Inherent, and never
broken) from (and always after) the beginning of My Avataric
Birth and Submission here. Truly, I began That Great Work (and even all My Avataric
Divine Work) – Which is My Ashvamedha (or Divine
Horse-Sacrifice) – even billions of years (and even a
countless Vastness of time) ago, before the “Big Bang” of
this conditional Cosmic domain. Therefore, This is My Message to My devotees: Through
ego-surrendering, ego-forgetting, and (always more and more)
ego-transcending feeling-Contemplation of My
Avatarically-Born bodily (human) Divine Form, My
Avatarically Self-Revealed Spiritual (and Always Blessing)
Divine Presence, and My Avatarically Self-Revealed (and
Very, and Transcendental, and Perfectly Subjective, and
Inherently Spiritual, and Inherently egoless, and Inherently
Perfect, and Self-Evidently Divine) State, invest yourself
in This Icon of Unity That I Am . Always (now, and forever
hereafter) Celebrate My Eternal Divine Self-Nature and My
Eternal Divine Unity with the “Bright” Divine
“Goddess-Power”. Thus, by ego-transcending participation in
My Divinely All-and-all-Liberating “Nuptials”, Most
Positively change even all the world. My devotees are the motion of a unique Opportunity that
includes all beings – on Earth and every where. Even all of
Cosmic Nature has been transformed in Its Principle by Me –
and, therefore, terrible events need not be ego-caused and
heart-suffered by My devotees, if they will rightly, truly,
fully, and fully devotionally recognize Me and (thus and
thereby) heart-respond to Me. Therefore, live in My most Intimate Heart-Company-Where I
am Giving Her “Kisses” (and She to Me). Stay in My Bed-Room-the Place of No-“difference” (Where
you are relieved of dreadful destiny). Now the Seed that I Made at the Vedanta Temple must
Infiltrate the world and Raise up every one. The “murderous” work of the “Mad Mother” is finished! I have Returned the Great “Divine Goddess” to Myself-Her
Ultimate Source. And, wherever My “Husbanding” of Her is rightly, truly,
fully, and fully devotionally acknowledged, the proceedings
in the Cosmic domain, and in the domain of mankind here,
will become Conformed to That Which Is “Bright” and
Auspicious. If My devotees will honor This Icon of Unity, and stay
with Me in My Bed-Room, their history (and even all of human
history, and of Cosmic destiny) can be transformed (by
heart-response to Me). And, by Virtue of This “Marriage” (Which “Pictures” My
own Inherently Indivisible Oneness), all and All will be
Attracted by My Divine Love-Bliss-“Brightness”, and (Thus
and Thereby) Drawn and Translated Into My Divine
Self-Domain. Therefore, true religion must retire to Light! The heart must be permitted to achieve a universal
feeling-ecstasy! And Beauty is not in the matter-world of thing and
death-but only in the singled universe of the True
Loved-One! Where everything that lives will be dog-withered by the
pack of time, fear arises-at the crown and bowel, where
times orderly extinctions twist the heart between the
North-and-South! And sorrow fills the mind, between the eyes-and feels the
belly suck the danger of all the unwanted changes made by
time! And anger burns a laser-breath of all-destroying
speeches-helpless in the klik-klak darks resistance to all
wanted change of times unwanted changes! Therefore, the cosmic universe of temporal and
all-destroying Nature must be Transfigured by undying
Love! Undying Love Is the universal Principle of re-“Connect”,
in the rush-to-dying world of Natural heaps of
yes-and-no! The world of Man is an eternal shift of necks-a shuttle
of Loves own faces, floating in a drown of moments-until the
“He” and “She” of Me, like the fingertips of lovers, Touch,
through the infinite transparency of a single tears True
Water-and Touch away, Together, at the Single of Infinity,
Where “We” were so deeply Torn !
