This is the message of Avatar Adi Da's extraordinary book The Basket of Tolerance. In The Basket of Tolerance, Avatar Adi Da Samraj "maps" the entire spectrum of potential religious points of view (as exemplified by all the known religious traditions of human history) through a precisely outlined and extensively annotated bibliography of over 5,000 items (including books, articles, video recordings, and audio recordings).
In ancient India, the earliest Buddhist manuscripts were written on palm leaves, and the collections of leaves were stored in baskets. There were three baskets altogether--one basket for the disciplinary rules of the monastic community (vinaya), one for Gautama's collected discourses (dharma), and one for the special texts analyzing the nature of human mental operations (abhidharma). Thus, the canon of Buddhist literature came to be known as "the three baskets" (or, in Sanskrit, "tripitaka").
In our time, the "basket" of religious and Spiritual literature includes the scriptures of all of the world's traditions. People in all parts of the world can now read the literature of any of the religious traditions of past and present. Therefore, it is essential that human beings study this literature in the disposition of tolerance and with intelligent discrimination appreciating the particular importance and significance of each branch of the Great Tradition. Avatar Adi Da created The Basket of Tolerance in order to help all come to a right and full understanding of the collective Great Tradition of humankind, and in order to provide a context in which to understand His unique Appearance and Offering. Each of the booklets in the "Basket of Tolerance" series contains one or more Essays from The Basket of Tolerance, in which Avatar Adi Da Samraj elucidates a particular aspect of (or point of view within) the Great Tradition.
"Is it not unreasonable to presume (and to dogmatically, and reductionistically, insist) that the only "real" (and "important") world is the "material" one (or the gross physical part of the whole? Is it not unreasonable to presume (and to dogmatically insist) that the patently obvious hierarchical structure of our own conditional manifestation is not a demonstration and a proof of the necessarily (and correspondingly) hierarchical structure of the "world"?
---Avatar Adi Da Samraj
