More quotes by Adyashanti
The most challenging thing for the spiritual seeker to do is to stop struggling.
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
Many people think that it is the function of a spiritual teaching to provide answers to life's biggest questions, but actually, the opposite is true. The primary task of any good spiritual teaching is not to answer your questions, but to question your answers.
Adyashanti
The perspective of Love doesn't leave anybody out. Until your vision and compassion is big enough to include those who oppose you, you are simply contributing to the continuation of destructiveness . The end of separation is the salvation for all.
Adyashanti
We must become expressions of, not consumers of, realization.
Adyashanti
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
You think that enlightenment is something other than what is happening right now. This is your primary mistake.
Adyashanti
What the universe will manifest when you are in alignment with it is a lot more interesting than what you try to manifest
Adyashanti
When you let go of the egoic self what you're getting in exchange is the whole universe.
Adyashanti
Gratitude is the appreciation of what is, of life, of existence, of anybody and anything, for just the way it is.
Adyashanti
The light of consciousness has no mind to change or alter anything. There is no sense that anything needs to change, but it does change.
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
You are an incredible mystery that you will never figure out. To be this mystery consciously is the greatest joy.
Adyashanti
I often describe the Absolute as Pure Infinite Potential, prior to being or becoming anything. It is forever unborn, yet gives birth to all of existence. About our ultimate nature nothing can be said it must be revealed.
Adyashanti
The truth is that you already are what you are seeking.
Adyashanti
If you want to know something, go elsewhere. If you want to un-know everything, then sit and listen.
Adyashanti
What is really important you can't understand with your mind.
Adyashanti
When you begin to become conscious, more aware, when your eyes begin to open, the first thing you see is how deluded you are and how much you're holding onto that which makes you suffer. This is, in many ways, the most important step: Are you willing to be aware?
Adyashanti
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. To pause for just a moment and realize that maybe you aren't who you imagine yourself to be.
Adyashanti
One must be willing to stand alone - in the unknown, with no reference to authority or the past or any of one's conditioning. One must stand where no one has stood before in complete nakedness, innocence, and humility.
