Growth in the Way of Adidam

"When attention is without limit, it is Divine Consciousness Itself. When energy is without limit, it is Love-Bliss. And you become someone who is active as the Divinely Transfiguring Power in the realm of conditional Nature."
— Avatar Adi Da Samraj

The Seven Stages of Life

What is the total process of human growth? What would occur in us if we were able to grow to the full extent of our potential? Avatar Adi Da Samraj offers a schema of seven stages of life which represents His Wisdom on the entire spectrum of human possibility. He has systematically described not only our physical, emotional, and mental development, but also all the phases of Spiritual, Transcendental, and Divine unfolding that are potential in us, once we are mature in ordinary, human terms.

This unique schema, which proceeds from birth to the final phases of Divine Enlightenment, is a central reference point in Avatar Adi Da Samraj's Wisdom-Teaching. It is an invaluable tool for understanding how we develop as individuals, and also for understanding how the Teachings and practices proposed by the various schools of religion and spirituality fit into the entirety of human potential.
