":The NPOV tag will highlight the recent discussions here and the stark difference in view between Adi Da's advocates and others, fine with me. Regarding the usual claims by advocate 202.63.42.221, sourcing must be the basis for the article. The claim that ""or to his devotees"" is POV fails to consider the source itself. The Adidam source clearly states that ""...""Adi Da"" is the principal Name of Avatar Adi Da Samraj...""; that devotees recognize him as the ""...Primordial Being, the Source of all, the Original Divine Person, Daand He is the Avatar, the bodily Revelation of that One...""; that ""Samraj"" is a Title for Avatar Adi Da, which He was offered by His devotees in 1996. ""Samraj"" means the ""Universal Ruler"", or ""Supreme Lord""..."".; To address Adi Da as ""Ruchira"" (Sanskrit for ""radiant"") is acknowledge Him as ""the Radiant, Shining, 'Bright' One""...when Avatar Adi Da's devotees use it in reference to Him, they intend it in the sense of ""The One Who Is, Self-Radiant, Inherently (or Perfectly Subjectively) 'Bright', Self-Enlightened, and Eternally Awake""..."". And ""...He took the Name of Adi Da Samraj. And more fully, in 1997: Adi Da Love-Ananda Samraj. This Nameoffered to Him by His devoteesdescribes His present Revelation. He is ""Adi"", the Source-Person, the First and Only Person, The Divine Person of Love-Bliss. He is ""Da Love-Ananda"", the Giver of Love-Bliss to all. And He is ""Samraj""the Divine King, the Master of Reality, serving all by the Transmission of His Heart-Awakening Grace; andin their right relationship to Him (Dseer note: an Adidam euphemism for devotion) being served by all, so that all may fully receive that Transmission, and Realize the Divine...."".

Not only does this source clearly state the Adidam position that ""to address Adi Da as ""Ruchira"" (Sanskrit for ""radiant"") is acknowledge Him as ""the Radiant, Shining, 'Bright' One"", which those outside the group or not in sympathy with it (non-devotees) would not acknowledge, but a google search for ""Ruchira Avatar Adi Da Samraj"" confirms that what comes up in any signficant order, excluding this article itself, for that title, is either Adidam sites and material or that of devotees. There is no thus evidence to support your claim that non-devotees would routinely refer to him by anything other than ""Adi Da"" (his primary name per the source), his name during the controversial period (Da Free John), or his given name of Franklin Jones today, rather than ""the Ruichira Avatar Adi Da Samraj"" (meaning ""the radiant avatar, primordial giver, universal ruler""), or as ""Beloved"" either, which as per the source, devotees would use. Thus, ""or to his devotees as..."" and defining what the titles and names mean to devotees, is perfectly appropriate and informative. 

The addition of all the names in the intro instead of just a few improves the article because Adi Da has been known by so many names, that it is important for the casual reader to know up front all these are the same person. The introduction isn't excessively long, it is only six sentences. One describes what him, one lists his many names, one sumarizes his dogma, one describes the highly publicized allegations, one lists the Adidam response, and one specifies these charges were settled out of court. Concise, simple, NPOV and based on sound sourcing, and appropriate.
