Adi Da says that it is not possible to simply work towards the most perfect knowledge of Reality or Freedom, or, otherwise, merely declare It to be so. Many of us have seen this at work in our own case or in others. He says that knowledge must be given, directly transmitted, from the Source. And before one can become fully available to spiritual transmission, radical self-understanding must unlock the self-contracted body-mind, so divine transmission can be truly felt at heart. Adi Da has described the practices that are the basis of this process in this book.

Eventually, when devotional turning is established there is the constant, effortless capability of heart-Communion with him. Those who took on this practice confess it is profoundly liberating and it frees the heart from its bondage.
