The Last Chapters of the Mummery Book

“The Last Chapters of the Mummery Book”

Adi Da Samraj – July 28,2004

 

But the quality of this Island is fundamental to how everything works out culturally and in terms of the mission. You must make this Island into My Hermitage. It is a place to which I have come as a Sannyasin, stepped out of the world. It is a kind of refuge. It is where I am establishing a holy place for the benefit of those who approach Me rightly, and it should not in any case become amateur religion land or a place where I am confined and ignored.

Well, that is the situation currently. So you all–after this meeting, I expect you to deal with it, whatever that takes to make the Samrajya right in every sense.

And then the Pan‑Communion and Ruchirasala, and so forth, has to be made right in terms of its mission and cultural obligations, and its need to support itself by what it does. It’s got to generate income by its doings, and not just live off the income of the resources of the gathering.

I have tried to correct the organization over and over again for over 32 years. It’s still not changed. You are all part of that gathering. I expect you therefore to see to it with your friends that the Pan‑Communion and Ruchirasala are set straight and kept straight.

I don’t know what to do at the present time, really. I can’t survive a lot longer under the conditions you are forcing Me to endure here. And so I’m speaking plainly to you, I hope you understand. And I don’t know what to do with it. I have tried absolutely everything with this organization, with this Island, with you all. And it just constantly cycles back to the same situation.

It fundamentally is a matter, a cultural matter of not understanding what it is to be My devotee and how the devotee relates to the Master, and what it means to be the devotee of Mine, the devotee of a Spiritual Master. And how you are responsible for this Body and the kind of purity and order the belongs by necessity here.

The Teaching years are over. The Revelation has been Given. You must approach Me rightly here. This is a place of access, but it’s access for, in My intention, the purpose of My doing My Spiritual Work with people–which is not what is going on presently. It is constantly turned again into a student‑beginner kind of summer camp.

And the Pan‑Communion, and so on, is constantly turned into this kind of beginner’s cult or social club, and nothing ever changes. You never accomplish anything. It’s a non-event.

I’ve raised My Voice about it enough. I don’t know what more to do. I can’t change anything about it beyond a point because I have no money. I don’t own anything. I don’t have any organizational power, for that matter. In some sense, I have no rights. It’s all up to you, you see, to see to it that things are right with Me. That’s what devotees do with their Masters.

You see Me being made ill by what you’re doing. Why should I have to ask you to change that? Why isn’t it obvious to you? Why don’t you see what you’re doing and stop it?

The practice that belongs at the beginning is a profound practice. Student-beginner practice is not some stupid cultism or club-member exoteric religiosity. It’s simply the foundation stage of adaptation to this profound esoteric Yogic Spiritual course of life.

And what you all are imposing on Me is a two-sided situation. I don’t know what to do with it. I’m being forced to accept it as a student-beginner kind of summer camp because I can’t do anything about it. Nobody responds to what I say about the issues with Me.

And if that becomes the case, then My being accessible here will be a different matter than it is presently. It’ll be more like it is now but it will become all there is about it. I mean, there’s not much contact with Me now.

There’s hardly any direct service to Me whatsoever. Literally, hardly any at all. There are a few people around who do some domestic aspects of the larger service to keeping the area clean, and so forth. But basically there’s one person designated to do kind of nursing home services for Me. That’s it. Literally, that’s it.

You’ve all read The Mummery Book. That’s it. This is the last chapters. I’ve been living in this situation for several years now, just put away by the organization. And you never change anything because you never accomplish any of your obligations. And you always involve Me in organizational business and casual social relations, or merely programmed ceremonial circumstances. It’s what unserious people do, but you’re having a very serious negative effect on this Body and on this Way and its potential to continue.

So you must change these things. And if you do, then you understand something about how you do a mission, then.

There isn’t a great deal to do about in Israel at the moment. It’s not that there is nobody there who might be responsive. Of course, there would be some. I’ve given you refuge here to protect your life.
