The world's problems are, by and large, human problems-the unavoidable consequence of egoic sleepwalking. If we care to look, all the signs are present to suggest that we are not only sleepwalking, but at times borderline insane as well.

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
Silence is the only teaching and the only teacher that is there all the time.
Adyashanti
The question of being is everything. Nothing could be more important or consequential-n othing where the stakes run so high. To remain unconscious of being is to remain asleep to our own reality and therefore asleep to reality at large. The choice is simple: awaken to being or sleep an endless sleep.
Adyashanti
The true heart of all human beings is the lover of what is.
Adyashanti
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
Embrace suffering, and you transform your relationship with what causes you to suffer, as well as your relationship with suffering itself.
Adyashanti
The biggest embrace of love you'll ever make is to embrace yourself completely. Then you'll realize you've just embraced the whole universe, and everything and everybody in it.
Adyashanti
When we start to suffer, it tells us something very valuable. It means that we are not seeing the truth, and we are not relating from the truth. It's a beautiful pointer. It never fails.
Adyashanti
Freedom is the disappearance of that which is searching for freedom.
Adyashanti
True freedom is to be free from the desire to be free from anything.
Adyashanti
If you want to know something, go elsewhere. If you want to un-know everything, then sit and listen.
Adyashanti
We realize--often quite suddenly--that our sense of self, which has been formed and constructed out of our ideas, beliefs and images, is not really who we are. It doesn't define us, it has no center.
Adyashanti
If we would only see that all limitations are self imposed and chosen out of fear, we would leap at once.
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
There's a great space in which this moment takes place. There's a great silence that is listening to the thoughts.
Adyashanti
The beautiful thing about the truth of being is that it's so unimaginably immediate.
Adyashanti
True meditation has no direction or goal. It is pure wordless surrender, pure silent prayer.
Adyashanti
You think that enlightenment is something other than what is happening right now. This is your primary mistake.
Adyashanti
Our own intuition of what we're called to is reality speaking to us individually and perfectly. We have to listen to how the Infinite talks to us and leads us. Reality, Life the Infinite, God, has a way of leading us in just the perfect way, if we will only just listen to it.
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.
