Adyashanti
Only when the pursuit ceases, is it possible to recognize what comprises you: pure being.
Adyashanti

The most challenging thing for the spiritual seeker to do is to stop struggling.

Real meditation is not about mastering a technique it's about letting go of control.
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
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
Take one step backward into the unknown.
Adyashanti
Wisdom without love is like having lungs but no air to breathe. Do not seek wisdom in order to acquire knowledge but in order to live and love more fully.
Adyashanti
Whatever you resist, persists.
Adyashanti
Ego is the movement of the mind toward objects of perception in the form of grasping, and away from objects in the form of aversion. This fundamentally is all the ego is. This movement of grasping and aversion gives rise to a sense of a separate 'me,' and in turn the sense of 'me' strengthens itself this way.
Adyashanti
There's something more to life than what we see on the surface.
Adyashanti
You are not your story. They are not your story about them. The world is not your story about the world.
Adyashanti
There's a fierceness about life that calls for a fierceness to not anxiously solve it but to allow it to transform you.
Adyashanti
Let go of all ideas and images in your mind, they come and go and aren’t even generated by you. So why pay so much attention to your imagination when reality is for the realizing right now?
Adyashanti
My speaking is meant to shake you awake, not to tell you how to dream better.
