More quotes by Adyashanti
Stop all doing and be still. Let the fire of stillness burn everything and reveal That which is Openness.
Adyashanti
Enlightenment is a destructive process.
Adyashanti
Life itself is nothing but relationship.
Adyashanti
To be here, all you have to do is let go of who you think you are. That's all! And then you realize, I'm here. Here is where thoughts aren't believed. Every time you come here, you are nothing. Radiantly nothing. Absolutely and eternally zero. Emptiness that is awake. Emptiness that is full. Emptiness that is everything.
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.
Adyashanti
Faith is a withholding of conclusion so that you allow what is to arise.
Adyashanti
True meditation is letting go of manipulating our experience.
Adyashanti
No matter what identity we cling to, it takes great courage to step out of the old masks we wear and the old scripts that we live by, and open ourselves to the mysterious inner core of our being.
Adyashanti
The most challenging thing for the spiritual seeker to do is to stop struggling.
Adyashanti
Take one step backward into the unknown.
Adyashanti
Inherent in the impulse to be free, is insecurity. The impulse to be free comes from outside of the mind, and because of this, it makes the mind feel very insecure. Most spiritual seekers move away from this insecurity by seeking and striving for a distant spiritual goal. That's how they avoid feeling insecure.
Adyashanti
In True Meditation, we're in the body as a means to transcend it. It is paradoxical that the greatest doorway to the transcendence of form is through form itself.
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
Enlightenment is the natural state of consciousness, the innocent state of consciousness, that state which is uncontaminated by the movement of thought, uncontaminated by control or manipulation of mind.
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
Love is a flame that burns everything other than itself. It is the destruction of all that is false and the fulfillment of all that is true.
Adyashanti
Real meditation is not about mastering a technique it's about letting go of control.
Adyashanti
Doubt is always accompanied by a pervasive cynicism that unconsciously puts a negative spin on whatever it touches.
Adyashanti
Enlightenment means waking up to what you truly are and then being that.
Adyashanti
If we would only see that all limitations are self imposed and chosen out of fear, we would leap at once.
