Born on Long Island in 1939, Adi Da describes his early years as being focused in two fundamental activities: investigating how to realize truth, and developing the ability to communicate that truth through artistic means (both visual and literary).
Adi Da graduated from Columbia College in 1961, with a B.A. in philosophy, and from Stanford University, obtaining his M.A. in 1966, with an MA in English literature. His master’s thesis, a study of core issues in modernism, focused on Gertrude Stein and painters of the same period.
In 1964, he began a period of practice under a succession of spiritual masters in the United States and India. Six years later, he experienced a spontaneous awakening that signaled the end of his spiritual quest. As an expression of the import of this awakening, he eventually took the name "Da," the fundamental meaning of which (in various languages) is "the giver." Understood esoterically, it is a reference to the Divine as the Giver of sound and light—that is, the Giver of the entire realm of manifest existence.
In the years since, Adi Da has created a large body of spiritual writings—over 60 published books—and is widely recognized as one of the most significant spiritual masters living today. In the early 70s, Alan Watts, writer of numerous books on religion and philosophy, acknowledged Adi Da as "a rare being," adding, "It is obvious, from all sorts of subtle details, that he knows what IT’s all about." In the late 90s, poet Robert Lax said of Adi Da’s innovative novel, The Mummery,” Living and working as a writer for many decades, I have not encountered a book like this, that mysteriously and unselfconsciously conveys so much of the Unspeakable Reality."

the main believe of Islam is worshiping one universal God who is the creation of all living thing, the heavens and what's beneath it.
then believe in all prophets sent from Him. starting from Adam....Abraham...Moses....Jesus...and Muhammad. as it beleives that Muhammad is the sealed of all the prophets.
as in Islam. they think God is something unique. He has no children or wives or daughters or even a son. everything are his creation, and servants.
Praying five times a day. do your charity to the needy. fast the month of Ramadan. and visit Makkah once in a life time.
just like any religion from God. it required a muslim to give charity, help the poor. be tender toward his parents, kind toward his wife, responsible of his family, help each other, tender toward the orphans, kind toward those who came for peace and harsh on those who attack them unfairly.
believing in one God. Not three, not human shape, not idols or images. and He has no sons or children. but we all are his servants.
