More from Adyashanti
When you see that everything is a momentary display of reality, then you stop resisting it. Resistance hurts, only every single time. Love is the state of nonresistance.
AdyashantiAdyashanti Meditation is a teaching which offers you the possibility of breaking free of this egoic state of consciousness and coming into a whole new realization of who and what you truly are. And all this starts with the willingness to question.
AdyashantiAdyashanti The unknown, our own true nature, has the capacity to wake itself up when you start to fall in love with letting go of all the mental structures you hold onto. Contemplate this: there is no such thing as a true belief.
AdyashantiAdyashanti Everybody is free to be as they are. Until the whole world is free to agree with you or disagree with you, until you have given the freedom to everyone to like you or not like you, to love you or hate you,
AdyashantiAdyashanti Every time you claim, “I am this”, you just claimed another sense perception, thought, emotion, or feeling.
AdyashantiAdyashanti Truth is not over there, wherever over there is. Truth is neither housed in religious rituals nor secret doctrines, nor in a guru’s touch or beatific smile, nor in exotic locations or ancient temples.
AdyashantiAdyashanti Reality is always true to itself. When you’re in harmony with it, you experience bliss. As soon as you are not in harmony with it, you experience pain. This is the law of the universe; it is the way things are. Nobody gets out of this law.
AdyashantiAdyashanti The more in harmony you are with the flow of your own existence, the more magical life becomes.
AdyashantiAdyashanti Whatever you resist you become. If you resist anger, you are always angry. If you resist sadness, you are always sad. If you resist suffering, you are always suffering.
AdyashantiAdyashanti If you have any image of what the Truth is, slay it immediately because that’s not it.
AdyashantiAdyashanti When you let go of the egoic self what you’re getting in exchange is the whole universe.
AdyashantiAdyashanti Now don’t think that awakening is the end. Awakening is the end of seeking, the end of the seeker, but it is the beginning of a life lived from your true nature.
AdyashantiAdyashanti No one can give you the strength of character necessary… Only you can find that passion within that burns with an integrity that will not settle for anything less than the Truth.
AdyashantiAdyashanti You do it anyway. Why? Because you no longer want to suffer. Because you’re willing to be disturbed. You’re willing to be amazed. You’re willing to be surprised.
AdyashantiAdyashanti Love causes us to be deeply connected in an unspoken way. It happens when we’re really available, really open.
AdyashantiAdyashanti At a certain point we need to grow up; we need to look inside ourselves for our inner guidance. There are things most human beings know; they just don’t want to know them.
