More quotes by Adyashanti
The goal of Buddhism is to create Buddhas, not Buddhists, as the goal of Christianity is to create Christs, not Christians.
Adyashanti
The more honest and authentic we are, the more deeply we go into the mystery of our own being.
Adyashanti
You can't lose what you serve. That's the secret. What you serve, you can't lose. What you don't serve and what you try to hold onto, you can't hold onto. It's always slipping out of your fingers.
Adyashanti
Only when the pursuit ceases, is it possible to recognize what comprises you: pure being.
Adyashanti
You can't look at what's looking. You can't think about that which is prior to thought.
Adyashanti
Our yearning for truth actually comes from truth.
Adyashanti
The intricacies of spiritual philosophy and theologies are just a thought within Emptiness.
Adyashanti
Space and stillness is the light that illuminates the beauty of our soul's being.
Adyashanti
A quiet mind married to integrity of heart is the birth of wisdom.
Adyashanti
The question of being is everything. Nothing could be more important or consequential-n othing where the stakes run so high. To remain unconscious of being is to remain asleep to our own reality and therefore asleep to reality at large. The choice is simple: awaken to being or sleep an endless sleep.
Adyashanti
Wisdom without love is like having lungs but no air to breathe. Do not seek wisdom in order to acquire knowledge but in order to live and love more fully.
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
When you rest in quietness and your image of yourself fades, and your image of the world fades, and your ideas of others fade, what's left? A brightness, a radiant emptiness that is simply what you are.
Adyashanti
To find out that you are empty of emptiness is to die into an aware mystery, which is the source of all existence.
Adyashanti
The biggest barrier to awakening is the belief that it is something rare.
Adyashanti
Has it ever occurred to you that you are seeking God with His eyes?
Adyashanti
My experience of fundamental Truth is that it’s a place of extraordinary intelligence. It’s a place from which great intelligence arises. I call it a place of absolute infinite potential.
Adyashanti
Awakening to the truth is a deep realization of what you are as an experience. What is it that is listening? What is it that is feeling? Feel it. Sense it. Welcome it.
Adyashanti
The body is a sensing instrument of consciousness. Without the body and mind, the trees could not see themselves. Usually we think that we are looking at a tree, but the tree is looking at itself through us. Without this instrument, the tree does not get to see itself. We are sensing instruments of the Divine.
Adyashanti
The realization of Truth and Reality can never be created by the mind ... it always comes as a gift of grace. Inquiry clears away misperceptions and illusions, making one available to the movements of grace.
