Publisher Comments:

"Religion is "cult"." Adi Da once opened an essay with this provocative statement. He said that religion is a "sacralized" system of philosophical and practical observances within the domain of time and space. Because it necessarily consists of defined beliefs and rituals, dependent on the existence of the concrete world in which it appears, the self-evident fact is that no religion can ever, in and of itself, be equal to Truth or Reality. Reality Itself is always senior to the cults of humankind. So what is the right and true relationship between religion and Reality? "Religion and Reality" presents the answer to that question. In some ways, to most deeply receive this communication is to be loosed from centuries of misunderstanding and to find the freedom to "consider" the real purpose of the world and the nature of Real God as Reality Itself. Who would not be interested in such a proposal?
