In True Meditation, we're in the body as a means to transcend it. It is paradoxical that the greatest doorway to the transcendence of form is through form itself.

More quotes by Adyashanti
We must become expressions of, not consumers of, realization.
Adyashanti
Whatever you want, be it. If you want connection, it's because you are connection. Be what you want, and then it happens all around you. If you want love, be it. You'll have more love than you know what to do with. Whatever you are inside, you receive a thousandfold on the outside.
Adyashanti
A total acceptance of yourself brings about a total transcendence of yourself.
Adyashanti
True meditation has no direction or goal. It is pure wordless surrender, pure silent prayer.
Adyashanti
What is really important you can't understand with your mind.
Adyashanti
If we do not live and manifest in our lives what we realize in our deepest moments of revelation, then we are living a split life.
Adyashanti
The moment that you are willing to step outside of tomorrow, outside of needing more time, or having more time, everything becomes possible. And you may finally notice where the Buddha has always been.
Adyashanti
One doesn't stay in a state of nirvana by hiding from difficulties. You stay in nirvana by lavishing nirvana on everyone you meet, by giving it away as fast as you receive it.
Adyashanti
Thoughts in your head are really no different than the sound of a bird outside. It is just that you decide that they are more or less relevant.
Adyashanti
It is one thing to touch a flame and know it is hot, but quite another to jump into that flame and be consumed by it.
Adyashanti
The Truth doesn't answer anything. The Truth IS everything!
Adyashanti
There's a fierceness about life that calls for a fierceness to not anxiously solve it but to allow it to transform you.
Adyashanti
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. Truth is quite literally the only thing that does exist. It is not hidden but in plain view, not lacking but abundantly present.
Adyashanti
The door to God is the insecurity of not knowing anything. Bear the grace of that uncertainty and all wisdom will be yours.
Adyashanti
True freedom is to be free from the desire to be free from anything.
Adyashanti
Only when the pursuit ceases, is it possible to recognize what comprises you: pure being.
Adyashanti
In the heart of a human being, emptiness becomes love. When we touch that Source, instantly the love is present. Literally, the divine becomes human and the human becomes divine.
Adyashanti
Take the armor off, so the arrow of the Truth can penetrate you.
Adyashanti
This moment in which you experience stillness is every moment. Don't let the mind seduce you into the past or future. Stay in the moment, and dare to consider that you can be free now.
Adyashanti
When we really start to take a look at who we think we are... we start to see that while we may have various thoughts, beliefs, and identities, they do not individually or collectively tell us who we are. [And yet] it is astounding how completely we humans define ourselves by the content of our minds, feelings, and history.
