Review

At this critical moment in the history of the human family, when the very foundations of civilization are being challenged, there is a message of compassion being spoken by one grounded in enduring wisdom and true discernment. In Not-Two Is Peace, Adi Da writes of the urgent need for a new form of global discourse, based on the recognition of the underlying unity of humankind. Such discourse would renew the ideals that originally underlay the foundation of the United Nations. And it would require humankind as a whole to listen to the ordinary people all over the world who are in dire need of greater human security. --BRYAN DESCHAMP, Senior Adviser, United Nations High Commission for Refugees 

Product Description

The World-Friend Adi Da speaks from his island-sanctuary, breaking his silence out of his concern for the current plight of humanity. Adi Da invites you to consider his urgent calling for the founding of a Global Cooperative Forum to address the profound ills of today's world, and to re-establish human civilization based on principles of mutual trust, cooperation, tolerance, prior unity, and the limitless participation of all of humankind in transforming its own destiny.

Adi Da's term "prior unity" points to the unity that exists prior to all the apparent differences and conflicts in the world. That unity, in other words, is senior to all apparent signs of disunity. Adi Da also calls this the "unifying life-principle" and the "cosmically extended pattern of Oneness". In this gem of instruction we find Adi Da asking all of mankind to do something completely different, as a whole. He writes in this book: "It is a matter of the greatest present-time urgency that the prevailing global mood of political separatism, end-game competitiveness, and endlessly multiplied divisiveness be immediately and thoroughly and universally and permanently relinquished such that the entire world-population of humankind becomes universally intelligent with the heart-positive mind of cooperation and tolerance."

In this book you will find 15 essays, with titles such as: The Truth of Prior Unity Is The Intrinsic Self-Revelation of Reality Itself, Reality-Politics for Ordinary Men and Women, Only Rightness Makes Justice True , Everybody-All-At-Once, Humankind Is Literally One Family, Cooperation + Tolerance = Peace: Formula for World Peace and The Three Great Principles Of All Truth.
