The Ancient Reality-Teachings ("Perfect Knowledge" Series)1 review
Adi Da Samraj

The Dawn Horse Press, 2006

Adi Da's teaching isn't that new or radical after all--a sign of timeless wisdom?

The Ancient Reality is a great book if you want valuble and credible interpretations of some very important Buddhist and Advaitist texts, as well as an understanding of how Adi Da's spiritual philosophy relates to these traditions.

Nirvanasara: Radical transcendentalism and the introduction of Advaitayana Buddhism1 review
Da Free John

Dawn Horse Press, 1982

Creative , Stimulating and Enjoyable.
