(from The First Three Stages of Life, rendered for children from Avatar Adi Da’s instructions to young people and adults.)

​

Remember, and feel, and breathe, and serve the Mystery. Or remember, and feel, and breathe, and serve Avatar Adi Da, which is the same thing.

​

Love and trust the Mystery in others and share the Happiness of the Mystery with them.

​

Let go of the unhappy feeling of “you don’t love me”. Remember not to hurt or punish other people even if you feel they might not be loving you right now.

​

Let go of the angry feelings that come up when someone hurts your feelings. It is okay to feel hurt and even angry, but you can let it go too, and forgive people for hurting you. You can love them anyway.

​

Do not pull away from people that you trust or hold your energy back from them.

​

Do not be stand--offish and pretend you do not need or like other people.

​

Always bring happy energy to the people you know and meet.

​

Tell others about your feelings and let them know you love them.

​

Remember that everyone wants to love and be loved just like you do.

​

Do love, say love, give love, be love.
