"Fearing-No-More" world-wide

December 20, 2006 by Stuart  
Adi Da's "Vision of Fear-No-More" broadly describes the spiritually informed family of humans and non-humans the world over, living intelligently, harmoniously, and together as "Earthkind".

"Fear-No-More" is an Enlightened utterance from the spiritually awakened realization of existence.

"Fear-No-More" is practical and spiritual instruction from the heart of a Man who loves and lives beyond the always killing limits of fear.

"Fear-No-More" is a profound calling to all humans.

Avatar Adi Da Samraj asks humans to not ignore our fear. He recommends that we feel our fear fully, to not hide it, nor hide from it... face the fear and love beyond it!

Many supposed reasons exist for why humans fight and make war, and ruin the earth.

But there is only one reason why humans create war and struggle against one another.

Fear, and our unwillingness to acknowledge and face it, is the only reason why humans fight and make war, and ruin the earth.

In part, Avatar Adi Da created the name, "Fear-No-More Zoo", as a message to humans to do like the non-humans do; contemplate spiritually, and regularly enter into Divine Communion, which is the condition of Fearing-No-More.

Non-humans contemplate readily because they feel the fear, they actually feel it, and simultaneously feel beyond it.

And into this world, now so filled with human fear,
Adi Da WHISPERS to humans everywhere... "FEAR-NO-MORE!"

So, serve and support

this Vision of Fear-No-More...

and this Zoo of Fear-No-More...

Whatever else you're doing,
we invite you to

Serve Fear-No-More

Promote Fear-No-More

Draw others to Fear-No-More!

It's a disposition for all
to understand,
enjoy
and embrace.

It is not limited by species, race, culture or religion.

It transcends these...

The entire planet,
and every little, and big, thing
on it,
are feeling the effects of human fear.

So wherever you are,
whatever you're doing,
whenever you're afraid,

we encourage you to practice Fearing-No-More.

Mahatma Gandhi Quote On Animals

October 24, 2006 by admin  
"The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated."
- Mahatma Gandhi

Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi [October 2, 1869 – January 30, 1948] was a major political and spiritual leader of India, particularly during its Independence movement. He was also an advocate of vegetarianism, simplicity, and self-sufficiency.

Relating With the "Other"

September 21, 2006 by admin  

"We are constantly trying to work out our relation to the other. It's like your dog meeting somebody else's dog. There is a growl, a sniff, a step forward, a potential rejection, or maybe an acceptance. That kind of thing is constantly taking place. Dogs do it very generously. As far as we human beings are concerned, obviously we are more subtle, but we are less generous because we have more 'me.' But still this process goes on constantly—we do that when we confront our world."

This quote is from Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche, as published in The Path Is the Goal: A Basic Handbook of Buddhist Meditation. (Photo is by quite_peculiar; some rights reserved.) Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche was one of the most dynamic teachers of Buddhism in the 20th Century.

Another metaphorical comparison of dogs and people can be found in
Walking the Dog, a Talk by Fear-No-More Zoo Founder Adi Da Samraj.

Even The Housefly

"Everything that lives, even the common domestic housefly, has something of value to share with you—whenever you are ready for the experience."
