More quotes by 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
Nothing appears to be something. The human experience is a senseory organ for the divine self. Through these eyes, the divine gets to see itself in form.
Adyashanti
How do I integrate spirituality into my everyday life? Throw out the concept of spiritual life and everyday life. There is only life, undivided and whole.
Adyashanti
Stop all doing and be still. Let the fire of stillness burn everything and reveal That which is Openness.
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
In the end it’s all very simple. Either we give ourselves to Silence or we don’t.
Adyashanti
Awareness yields to itself, to its inherent creativity, to its expression in form, to experience itself.
Adyashanti
You must choose between your attachments and happiness.
Adyashanti
The main requirement for spiritual growth: A yearning to know who you really are.
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
My speaking is meant to shake you awake, not to tell you how to dream better.
Adyashanti
Freedom is the disappearance of that which is searching for freedom.
Adyashanti
It is good to remember that the goal of Buddhism is to create Buddhas, not Buddhists, as the goal of Christianity is to create Christs, not Christians. In the same vein, my teachings are not meant to acquire followers or imitators, but to awaken beings to eternal truth and thus to awakened life and living.
Adyashanti
Awakening to the truth is a deep realization of what you are as an experience. What is it that is listening? What is it that is feeling? Feel it. Sense it. Welcome it.
Adyashanti
Instead of striving towards some distant goal that you will never reach, I invite you to stop and ask: How am I avoiding the enlightenment that is already present in each moment? How am I seeing separation where it doesn't exist?
Adyashanti
There's a great space in which this moment takes place. There's a great silence that is listening to the thoughts.
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
Enlightenment is a destructive process.
Adyashanti
Silence is the only teaching and the only teacher that is there all the time.
Adyashanti
What would happen if you were to allow everything to be exactly as it is? If you gave up the need for control, and instead embraced the whole of your experience in each moment that arose?
