Bubba
Free John"Bubba Free John" is the name by which Avatar Adi Da Samraj was known publically from 1973 until 1979.
Avatar Adi Da took this name upon His return from a trip to India in 1973. "Free John" is a rendering of the root-meanings of His born name, "Franklin Jones", and "Bubba", an affectionate nick-name from Avatar Adi Da's childhood, means "brother". Avatar Adi Da has said that "Bubba Free John" was a name that came to Him spontaneously when the Sacrifice of His Teaching Work began. He needed to become a "Friend", or "Brother", to His devotees in order to Teach them the Great Way He had come to Reveal for the sake of all beings.
