More quotes by Adyashanti
There is only consciousness. There is no individual apart from consciousness who is conscious.
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
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.
Adyashanti
Our yearning for truth actually comes from truth.
Adyashanti
When emptiness is still, that is eternity. When it moves, that is love.
Adyashanti
Often life is a frantic avoidance of the truth.
Adyashanti
The biggest barrier to awakening is the belief that it is something rare.
Adyashanti
This world is not my concern it is myself.
Adyashanti
Cessation of struggle is like free falling through space without a care in the world.
Adyashanti
At first it seems as if begoing follows becoming. But look even closer and you will see that there are only flashes of lightning illuminating the empty sky.
Adyashanti
The proof of the depth and embodiment of your realization will be seen in your love relationship. That's where the proof is in the pudding. If it all collapses in your relationship, you have some work to do. And people do have a lot of difficulties in their relationships.
Adyashanti
A meditative mind is at ease because it's not trying to acquire anything.
Adyashanti
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.
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.
Adyashanti
Our own intuition of what we're called to is reality speaking to us individually and perfectly. We have to listen to how the Infinite talks to us and leads us. Reality, Life the Infinite, God, has a way of leading us in just the perfect way, if we will only just listen to it.
Adyashanti
The true heart of all human beings is the lover of what is.
Adyashanti
Enlightenment is, in the end, nothing more than the natural state of being.
Adyashanti
Freedom is the disappearance of that which is searching for freedom.
Adyashanti
Instead of striving towards some distant goal that you will never reach, I invite you to stop and ask: How am I avoiding the enlightenment that is already present in each moment? How am I seeing separation where it doesn't exist?
Adyashanti
Only when the pursuit ceases, is it possible to recognize what comprises you: pure being.
