Welcome To Reality / Adyashanti

"Awakening invites us to live outside the context of the mind and to experience an entirely new way of being. But accepting this invitation can be disorienting. We're as likely to commit a great act of stupidity as we are to fall into the extraordinary simplicity of truth. In this satsang Adyashanti offers advice and insight for those beginning to explore the awakened life. Recorded(full dvd) on August 20, 2005" -- http://www.adyashanti.org

"If you filter my words through any tradition or '-ism', you will miss altogether what I am saying. THE LIBERATING TRUTH IS NOT STATIC; IT IS ALIVE. It cannot be put into concepts and be understood by the mind. The truth lies beyond all forms of conceptual fundamentalism. What you are is the beyond—awake and present, here and now already. I am simply helping you to realize that." -- Adyashanti

http://www.peterspearls.com.au/adyainoz.htm (At the bottom of page there are 4 more audio samples of satsangs and interviews with Adyashanti not found anywhere else on the web)

Adyashanti's nondual teachings have been compared to those of the early Zen masters and Advaita Vedanta sages. Expressing both the infinite possibilities and the ordinary simplicity of a spiritually realized life, Adyashanti's teachings are directed to those who are sincerely called to awaken to their true nature and embody this life-changing realization.

"I am" is a thought the Universe is having.

No one wakes up because no one is asleep because no one is here separate from the Universe.

There is no "we" operating any of this.

No free will, no agent, no choice, no enlightenment separate from reading this.

No one can realize the truth of their being because there is nothing here except Being.

No one has a mind. No one has a thought. No one makes a decision. No Divine separate from reading this.

Inevitable? This is it.

[BenjaminSmythe]

Living is all there is.

No one lives separate from Living.

No one resists. No one makes a choice because there is no one here.

Supernovas, botox, poetry, pronouns, microphones, redwoods and woodpeckers are all Living.

There is no adyashanti separate from the eyes reading this.

This is it.

@blackbird69xxx I asked a homeless man about death recently. He lives near Nation's Burger on University Ave. in Berkeley and spends all day lying on the sidewalk watching the world go by.

He said, "I don't know. I don't know. That's, like, the future." :)

This is the second best answer I have ever heard. The first came from Adyashanti. He reached into his pocket, when asked about death, and said, "Here is a quarter. Call me when you find out."

@greenearthnazi20204u Awesome.

@stellarshore This is an awesome point. What happens when the voice says, "I want to listen to Adyashanti?" Is that a mistake?

@BenjaminSmythe  Beautiful my friend ♥

[blackbird69xxx]

@BenjaminSmythe .. Thats deep and basically Advaita vedanta... it just overloads my brain :))) Where do we go at death, dissolution back into the prime creator ?  :)

@pottercrazygirl good and bad is dream, you (the personality with opinion) is also dream, you must wake up, end the dreaming.. and the dreamer ends.. Along with the dream. Check out my channel video on "end of suffering" it is very simple if you are willing to be simple
