More quotes by Adyashanti
Our yearning for truth actually comes from truth.
Adyashanti
What will carry us into living freedom is not the holding of attention so much as the holding of appreciation.
Adyashanti
When the eternal and the human meet, that's where love is born -- not through escaping our humanity or trying to disappear into transcendence, but through finding that place where they come into union.
Adyashanti
Completion comes when we not just wake up from all form, from all identification, but when love causes us to re-embrace it all.
Adyashanti
You are not your story. They are not your story about them. The world is not your story about the world.
Adyashanti
Awareness yields to itself, to its inherent creativity, to its expression in form, to experience itself.
Adyashanti
A total acceptance of yourself brings about a total transcendence of yourself.
Adyashanti
You are the doorway to the infinite.
Adyashanti
The silence inside of you is the sound of your knowledge collapsing. Remember, it is you who said, 'I want to be free.'
Adyashanti
Awareness isn’t something we own awareness isn’t something we possess. Awareness is actually what we are.
Adyashanti
Stop all delays, all seeking and all striving. Put down your concepts, ideas and beliefs. For one instant be still and directly encounter the silent unknown core of your being. In that instant Freedom will embrace you and reveal the Awakening that you are.
Adyashanti
Feel this moment, see it with a willingness to experience it deeply, whether it be good, bad, or indifferent. Emotionally and feelingly be fully present, right here, vulnerable, with your heart. Just be present. Don't live from your conditioned mind, live from unconditional truth.
Adyashanti
If you want to know something, go elsewhere. If you want to un-know everything, then sit and listen.
Adyashanti
Enlightenment is, in the end, nothing more than the natural state of being.
Adyashanti
Since everything is already the Supreme Buddha Nature, where are you going to find it?
Adyashanti
When emptiness is still, that is eternity. When it moves, that is love.
Adyashanti
If you have any image of what the Truth is, slay it immediately because that's not it.
Adyashanti
The world's problems are, by and large, human problems-the unavoidable consequence of egoic sleepwalking. If we care to look, all the signs are present to suggest that we are not only sleepwalking, but at times borderline insane as well.
Adyashanti
Nobody can give us what we really already are. Wouldn't it be terrible if somebody could give you what you really are? ...'cause if they could give it to you, they could take it away.
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.
