You are the doorway to the infinite.
Adyashanti
Image
The door to God is the insecurity of not knowing anything. Bear the grace of that uncertainty and all wisdom will be yours.
Adyashanti

Adyashanti
Image
There's a fierceness about life that calls for a fierceness to not anxiously solve it but to allow it to transform you.
Adyashanti
Image
The paradox is that when resistance is fully accepted, the resistance disappears.
Adyashanti
Image
Love causes us to be deeply connected in an unspoken way. It happens when we're really available, really open.
Adyashanti
Image
The willingness to not bypass illusion is very important. We come to nirvana by way of samsara. We come to see the true nature of things by seeing through the illusory nature of things. We don't come to nirvana by avoiding samsara. We don't come to clarity by avoiding confusion.
Adyashanti
Image
If you prefer smoke over fire then get up now and leave. For I do not intend to perfume your mind's clothing with more sooty knowledge.
Adyashanti
Image
When you let go of the egoic self what you're getting in exchange is the whole universe.
Adyashanti
Image
The silence inside of you is the sound of your knowledge collapsing. Remember, it is you who said, 'I want to be free.'
