More quotes by Adyashanti
Love moves without an agenda. It just moves because that is its nature to move.
Adyashanti
The most intimate question we can ask, and the one that has the most spiritual power, is this: What or who am I?
Adyashanti
If you think that people should be nice to one another, then by all means be nice. But when you project that belief onto the people and the world around you as if it were an objective reality, or worse still, as if it were their job to be nice to you, you put yourself at odds with what is, and suffering will surely follow.

Grief, unresisted, is grace. It doesn't mean it doesn't hurt anymore, it doesn't mean it doesn't rip your heart out....In great grief, there's an incredible love in it. In love there's a tinge of bitter. In true love. My teacher used to say 'all love is bittersweet'. All things experienced fully, reveal their opposite.

Adyashanti
There is, quite literally, nothing to understand.
Adyashanti
We are birthed into sangha, into sacred community. It is called the world.
Adyashanti
All is always well even when it seems unbelievably unwell.
Adyashanti
What you run away from owns you. You are the dog on a leash. The most you can do is to tug against the leash.
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
We must become expressions of, not consumers of, realization.
Adyashanti
Thoughts in your head are really no different than the sound of a bird outside. It is just that you decide that they are more or less relevant.
Adyashanti
If we do not live and manifest in our lives what we realize in our deepest moments of revelation, then we are living a split life.
Adyashanti
Take the armor off, so the arrow of the Truth can penetrate you.
Adyashanti
The beautiful thing about the truth of being is that it's so unimaginably immediate.
Adyashanti
What will carry us into living freedom is not the holding of attention so much as the holding of appreciation.
