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
The truth is that you already are what you are seeking.
Adyashanti
The true heart of all human beings is the lover of what is.

My speaking is meant to shake you awake, not to tell you how to dream better.

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 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
The door to God is the insecurity of not knowing anything. Bear the grace of that uncertainty and all wisdom will be yours.
Adyashanti
Enlightenment means waking up to what you truly are and then being that.
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
Many people think that it is the function of a spiritual teaching to provide answers to life's biggest questions, but actually, the opposite is true. The primary task of any good spiritual teaching is not to answer your questions, but to question your answers.
Adyashanti
Cessation of struggle is like free falling through space without a care in the world.
Adyashanti
The Truth is the only thing you’ll ever run into that has no agenda.
Adyashanti
I often describe the Absolute as Pure Infinite Potential, prior to being or becoming anything. It is forever unborn, yet gives birth to all of existence. About our ultimate nature nothing can be said it must be revealed.
Adyashanti
Awareness yields to itself, to its inherent creativity, to its expression in form, to experience itself.
Adyashanti
Real meditation is not about mastering a technique it's about letting go of control.
