More quotes by 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
When you inquire 'Who am I?' if you are honest, you'll notice that it takes you right back to silence instantly. The brain doesn't have an answer, so all of a sudden there is silence.
Adyashanti
The biggest barrier to awakening is the belief that it is something rare.
Adyashanti
Truth is not over there, wherever over there is. Truth is neither housed in religious rituals nor secret doctrines, nor in a guru's touch or beatific smile, nor in exotic locations or ancient temples. Truth is quite literally the only thing that does exist. It is not hidden but in plain view, not lacking but abundantly present.
Adyashanti
In the heart of a human being, emptiness becomes love. When we touch that Source, instantly the love is present. Literally, the divine becomes human and the human becomes divine.
Adyashanti
The truth is you can't try to let go. Trying is the opposite of letting go. To let go is to relinquish trying. To let go is much more like to let be.
Adyashanti
Whenever you aren’t manipulating your experience, you’re meditating. As soon as you meditate because you think you should, you’re controlling your experience again, and you’ve squeezed all the value out of your meditation.
Adyashanti
All you have to do is say yes. Don't make some big project out of it. Don't make some big deal out of it. Just say yes. You don't even know what it means to say yes, but you say it anyway. You'll never know what it means to say yes, but you do it anyway. Freedom and Love arise when you die into the unknown mystery of being.
Adyashanti
The Way of Liberation is not a belief system it is something to be put into practice.
Adyashanti
Do not seek after what you yearn for, seek the source of the yearning itself.
Adyashanti
You think that enlightenment is something other than what is happening right now. This is your primary mistake.
Adyashanti
We must become expressions of, not consumers of, realization.
Adyashanti
Many Sages have said, Your world is a dream. You're living in an illusion. They're referring to this world of the mind and the way we believe our thoughts about reality. When we see the world through our thoughts, we stop experiencing life as it really is and others as they really are.
Adyashanti
You must want to know the truth more than you want to feel secure in order to fully awaken to the fact that you are nothing but Awakeness itself.
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
The main requirement for spiritual growth: A yearning to know who you really are.
Adyashanti
Go ahead, climb up onto the velvet top of the highest stakes table. Place yourself as the bet. Look God in the eyes and finally, for once in your life, lose.
Adyashanti
To be free of fear is to be full of Love.
Adyashanti
This awake silence is available to anyone in this moment. All you have to do is stop using your mind to look for it. It doesn't know where to find it.
Adyashanti
Refuse to disconnect from love and every relationship will be totally transformed even the relationship with yourself.
