ADYASHANTITrue intelligence does not derive from thought. True intelligence uses thought.
ADYASHANTIThere is profound responsibility in being Love… more than the mind could imagine or hold up under. If most human beings truly realized the impact that they have on the whole, they’d be crushed by the realization of it.
ADYASHANTIThe truth is that you already are what you are seeking. You are looking for God with his eyes. I suggest you ask, “What’s ultimately behind this set of eyes?” Turn around to see what is looking.
ADYASHANTIThe Truth doesn’t answer anything. The Truth IS everything!
ADYASHANTIThe more in harmony you are with the flow of your own existence, the more magical life becomes.
ADYASHANTIAll we really want in the end is to be connected once again with the Truth of our being, to realize what it is that wears this mask of self.
ADYASHANTIWhen you get out of the driver’s seat, you find that life can drive itself, that actually life has always been driving itself. When you get out of the driver’s seat, it can drive itself so much easier-it can flow in ways you never imagined.
ADYASHANTIThe Truth is the only thing you’ll ever run into that has no agenda.
ADYASHANTIWhen emptiness is still, that is eternity. When it moves, that is love.
ADYASHANTIIf you give yourself this gift of not knowing and you follow it, a vast spaciousness and mysterious openness dawns within you.
ADYASHANTIRight now you can allow yourself to experience a very simple sense of not knowing – not knowing what or who you are, not knowing what this moment is, not knowing anything.
ADYASHANTIThe mind wants to land, to fixate, to hold a concept, but the only way you can be really free is by not fixating. That’s part of true maturity, and it’s one of the hardest things for spiritual people who have had true and powerful revelations to go through.
ADYASHANTIThe teaching must not only consume you, but consume itself as well. All must be burned to ash, and then the ash must be burned. Then, and only then, is the Ultimate realized.
ADYASHANTIWhen you abide and accept everything completely and fully, you automatically go beyond.
ADYASHANTIA few minutes ago, you knew who you were-you had a history and a personality-but from this place of not knowing, you question all of that.
ADYASHANTIIn the same vein, my teachings are not meant to acquire followers or imitators, but to awaken beings to eternal truth and thus to awakened life and living.
