Description: Product Description
Adi Da Samraj wrote this book out of compassion for humanity's current plight. Not-Two Is Peace contains Adi Da's vital wisdom on the root of human conflict: the limits and errors of conventional religion and politics. He points to the necessity of re-establishing human civilization based on principles of mutual trust, cooperation, tolerance, 'prior unity', and the limitless participation of all humankind in transforming its own destiny.

Also included is Adi Da's 'radical' argument for transcending egoity along with his urgent call to found the Global Cooperative Forum a new type of human order. This forum will allow humankind to become conscious of itself as one great coherent force the only force capable of requiring and implementing systemic changes the world needs.

This third edition is essential study for anyone concerned about the state of global affairs.

He writes: "The old moral, social, and political 'order' of humankind is now dead. A new and true and right order of humankind is, now, and forever hereafter, necessary. This Free Declaration is the Seed-Utterance of that new and necessary true and right (and truly globally, totally, and universally cooperative) order."

Read chapters full of extraordinary wisdom and instruction such as:

--Humankind Is Literally One Family

--On The Dangers of The Old 'Tribalisms', and The Necessity For A Global Cooperative Forum Based On The Prior Unity of Humankind

--Reality-Politics For Ordinary Men and Women

--Wash All The Flags (and Leave All Name-Tags and Placards At The Door)

--To Take Moral Responsibility Is To Make Reactivity Harmless

--Everybody-All-At-Once

--The Three Great Principles of All Truth

--I Am Here To Awaken A Bright New Age of Global Humankind

New in this enlarged and updated edition:
Final Word, added just before going to press, was spoken by Adi Da hours before he suddenly departed from the body, on November 27, 2008.
Part One, new to this edition, contains seven sets of 'Principles', or summary points, formulated by Adi Da. These Principles are Adi Da's summary of many crucial points regarding the current state of the world and the characteristics of the Global Cooperative Forum he describes.
Part Two consists of essays, many of which are new, in which Adi Da elaborates on and further contextualizes points made in the Principles.
Part Three is devoted to essays (mostly new) on the root-nature of Reality, and, thus, on the ultimate meaning and significance of 'prior unity' and 'Not-Two'.

Praise for Not-Two Is Peace

Profound wisdom on the root of human conflict, and the path away from a grim destiny. An astonishing gift.
--Professor Jonathan Lynch, Pennsylvania State University

Not-Two Is Peace is essential reading for all people who understand the absolutely critical nature of the times we live in, and want to do something about it. This book offers a vision of global change that is a foundation for linking the best of current efforts with the deep-seated 'prior unity' of humankind. What is that, exactly? Read the book. Feel the potential. We can change the disastrous pattern of our times.
--Julie Koler, Cultural Resource Manager, King County, Washington

In a world beset with innumerable challenges, Not-Two Is Peace offers a new vision for the future. Adi Da emphasizes 'prior unity' as the basis for our decisions and actions. If we proceed with putting the interests of the whole humanity first, then there is the possibility of growth and development for the nearly seven billion people on the planet, not just a privileged minority. Such wisdom cannot be ignored.
--Sam Pitroda, Chairman, National Knowledge Commission of India
