For the first time, on April 25, 1972, Avatar Adi Da Samraj invited people to approach Him as Spiritual Teacher at His new ashram center on Melrose Avenue in Los Angeles.

That evening, Avatar Adi Da first sat in silence for perhaps an hour with those present, Transmitting to them the Sublimity of His Radiant State of Realization.

Adi Da spoke:

Are there any questions?

No one replied, so Avatar Adi Da Samraj Spoke again:

Everyone has understood?

Questioner: I have not understood. Explain it to me.

Adi Da Samraj: Very good. What have you not understood? . . .

. . . so began Adi Da’s Teaching Work!
