More quotes by Adyashanti
Thoughts are just moving through consciousness. They have no power. Nothing has reality until you reach it, grab it, and somehow impregnate it with the power of belief.
Adyashanti
Faith is a withholding of conclusion so that you allow what is to arise.
Adyashanti
The paradox is that when resistance is fully accepted, the resistance disappears.
Adyashanti
Misery needs your conspiracy it needs your help. Without your resistance misery cannot survive.
Adyashanti
Gratitude is the appreciation of what is, of life, of existence, of anybody and anything, for just the way it is.
Adyashanti
You are not your story. They are not your story about them. The world is not your story about the world.
Adyashanti
Whatever you resist, persists.
Adyashanti
Imagine trusting silence more than any thought you can come up with.
Adyashanti
Stop all delays, all seeking and all striving. Put down your concepts, ideas and beliefs. For one instant be still and directly encounter the silent unknown core of your being. In that instant Freedom will embrace you and reveal the Awakening that you are.
Adyashanti
Space and stillness is the light that illuminates the beauty of our soul's being.

True meditation is letting go of manipulating our experience.
Adyashanti
My speaking is meant to shake you awake, not to tell you how to dream better.

Meditation is a dress rehearsal for death.
Adyashanti
What matters are not the truths other people tell us or the practices that we are able to mimic, but the spiritual discoveries we make through personal investigation.
Adyashanti
Freedom is the disappearance of that which is searching for freedom.
Adyashanti
You can't look at what's looking. You can't think about that which is prior to thought.
Adyashanti
Why is it that so few people are truly free? Because they try to conform to ideas, concepts, and beliefs in their heads.
Adyashanti
Question your thoughts. Question your stories. Question your assumptions. Question your opinions. Question your conclusions. Question them all into utter emptiness, stillness and joy. The keys to freedom are in your hands. Use them.
Adyashanti
All you have to do is say yes. Don't make some big project out of it. Don't make some big deal out of it. Just say yes. You don't even know what it means to say yes, but you say it anyway. You'll never know what it means to say yes, but you do it anyway. Freedom and Love arise when you die into the unknown mystery of being.
