Truth has no finality to it. It is not something to be held on to. Truth is discovered minute to minute or not at all.
ADYASHANTI -
Real meditation is not about mastering a technique; it’s about letting go of control. This is meditation. Anything else is actually a form of concentration. Meditation and concentration are two different things. Concentration is a discipline.

Neither one of these thoughts hold any intrinsic reality. They are an overlay. When someone says, ‘I love you,’ he is telling you about himself, not you. When someone says, ‘I hate you,’ she is telling you about herself, not you. World views are self views-literally.
ADYASHANTI -
Completion comes when we not just wake up from all form, from all identification, but when love causes us to re-embrace it all.

When someone tells you, ‘I love you,’ and then you feel, ‘Oh, I must be worthy after all,’ that’s an illusion. That’s not true. Or someone says, ‘I hate you,’ and you think, ‘Oh, God, I knew it; I’m not very worthy,’ that’s not true either.
ADYASHANTI -
Real meditation is not about mastering a technique; it’s about letting go of control.
ADYASHANTI -
When we’re in our true being, the purpose of life is to feel that every moment is the purpose.
ADYASHANTI -
A spiritual teaching is a finger pointing toward Reality; it is not Reality itself. To be in a true and mature relationship with a spiritual teaching requires you to apply it, not simply believe in it.
ADYASHANTI -
Ego is neither positive nor negative. Those are simply concepts that create more boundaries. Ego is just ego, and the disaster of it all is that you, as a spiritual seeker, have been conditioned to think of the ego as bad, as an enemy, as something to be destroyed.
