In 1976/77 Bob spent twelve months with Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj in Bombay — the teacher whose talks became I Am That. What was recognized there, Bob spent the next five decades pointing out for others, simply and directly, at his home in Melbourne and around the world.
The meetings continue, held by Kat Adamson. Bob passed away on the 6th of February 2025. Honoring his wish, Kat — his wife and successor — holds the Sunday gathering at their Melbourne home and the Tuesday & Thursday Zoom groups. Everyone is welcome; there are no fees or charges.

Pointers
"Learn to live without self-concern. For this you must know your own true being as indomitable, fearless and ever-victorious. Once you know with absolute certainty that nothing can trouble you but your own imagination, you come to disregard your desires and fears, concepts and ideas, and live by truth alone."
— Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
"The idea of enlightenment or self-realisation as a onetime event or a lasting and permanent state or experience is an erroneous concept. Understand-ING or know-ING is alive in the immediacy which can never be negated. The emphasis is on the activity of know-ING which is going on as the immediacy now — not the dead concept I understand or I know."
— Sailor Bob Adamson
