More quotes by Adyashanti
You are an incredible mystery that you will never figure out. To be this mystery consciously is the greatest joy.
Adyashanti
When we really start to take a look at who we think we are, we become very grace prone.
Adyashanti
A spiritual teaching is a finger pointing toward Reality it is not Reality itself. To be in a true and mature relationship with a spiritual teaching requires you to apply it, not simply believe in it.
Adyashanti
The process of finding the truth may not be a process by which we feel increasingly better and better. It may be a process by which we look at things honestly, sincerely, truthfully, and that may or may not be an easy thing to do.
Adyashanti
The truth is that you already are what you are seeking. You are looking for God with his eyes. I suggest you ask, What's ultimately behind this set of eyes? Turn around to see what is looking.
Adyashanti
Misery needs your conspiracy it needs your help. Without your resistance misery cannot survive.
Adyashanti
There is profound responsibility in being Love... more than the mind could imagine or hold up under. If most human beings truly realized the impact that they have on the whole, they'd be crushed by the realization of it.
Adyashanti
Since everything is already the Supreme Buddha Nature, where are you going to find it?
Adyashanti
We must become expressions of, not consumers of, realization.
Adyashanti
We think there’s someplace other than here to get to—that’s what drives the whole pursuit. Only when the pursuit ceases, is it possible to recognize what comprises you: pure being, pure consciousness. This is actually the very substance of your own self and being.
Adyashanti
Take the armor off, so the arrow of the Truth can penetrate you.
Adyashanti
There is, quite literally, nothing to understand.
Adyashanti
The intricacies of spiritual philosophy and theologies are just a thought within Emptiness.
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
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
Be a true representative of the goodness in your heart, and don't expect it to be easy or even noticed.
Adyashanti
Doubt is always accompanied by a pervasive cynicism that unconsciously puts a negative spin on whatever it touches.
Adyashanti
There is only consciousness. There is no individual apart from consciousness who is conscious.
Adyashanti
The goal of Buddhism is to create Buddhas, not Buddhists, as the goal of Christianity is to create Christs, not Christians.
Adyashanti
As I often tell my students, the person you’ll have the hardest time opening to and truly loving without reserve is yourself. Once you can do that, you can love the whole universe unconditionally.
