I have Come into this world for the sake of My devotees, those who are Mine. My devotees are all those who surrender into heart-Communion with Me and (ultimately, Most Perfectly) Realize Me. Therefore, any one who comes to Me in order to Realize the Divine Self-Condition and Source-Condition (That Is Real God, and Truth, and Reality), and who persists in surrendering into heart-Communion with Me, is My Own.
—Avatar Adi Da Samraj
