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.

More quotes by Adyashanti
Enlightenment is the natural state of consciousness, the innocent state of consciousness, that state which is uncontaminated by the movement of thought, uncontaminated by control or manipulation of mind.
Adyashanti
Doubt is always accompanied by a pervasive cynicism that unconsciously puts a negative spin on whatever it touches.
Adyashanti
True sincerity reveals a powerful form of clarity and discernment that is necessary in order to perceive yourself honestly without flinching or being held captive by your conditioned mind's judgments and defensiveness.
Adyashanti
When someone says, 'I love you,' he is telling you about himself, not you. When someone says, 'I hate you,' she is telling you about herself, not you. World views are self views-literally.
Adyashanti
My speaking is meant to shake you awake, not to tell you how to dream better.
Adyashanti
Take one step backward into the unknown.
Adyashanti
Has it ever occurred to you that you are seeking God with His eyes?
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
Imagine trusting silence more than any thought you can come up with.
Adyashanti
All delusions begin in the mind. All delusions are based on various ways we’re talking to ourselves and then believing what we are saying.
Adyashanti
You can't look at what's looking. You can't think about that which is prior to thought.
Adyashanti
The process of finding the truth may not be a process by which we feel increasingly better and better. It may be a process by which we look at things honestly, sincerely, truthfully, and that may or may not be an easy thing to do.
Adyashanti
The truth is that you already are what you are seeking.
Adyashanti
The body is a sensing instrument of consciousness. Without the body and mind, the trees could not see themselves. Usually we think that we are looking at a tree, but the tree is looking at itself through us. Without this instrument, the tree does not get to see itself. We are sensing instruments of the Divine.
Adyashanti
As soon as you believe that a label you've put on yourself is true, you've limited something that is literally limitless, you've limited who you are into nothing but a thought.
Adyashanti
Silence is the only teaching and the only teacher that is there all the time.
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.
Adyashanti
Enlightenment is a destructive process. It has nothing to do with becoming better or being happier. Enlightenment is the crumbling away of untruth. It's seeing through the facade of pretence. It's the complete eradication of everything we imagined to be true.
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
In the heart of a human being, emptiness becomes love. When we touch that Source, instantly the love is present. Literally, the divine becomes human and the human becomes divine.
