If we do not live and manifest in our lives what we realize in our deepest moments of revelation, then we are living a split life.
AdyashantiYou can't lose what you serve. That's the secret. What you serve, you can't lose. What you don't serve and what you try to hold onto, you can't hold onto. It's always slipping out of your fingers.
AdyashantiThe more honest and authentic we are, the more deeply we go into the mystery of our own being.
AdyashantiThe joke of it all is that you are looking from your true nature right now without knowing it. If you would stop being fascinated with the contents of your mind, you would experience what I am saying. Feel your way into what I am saying rather than thinking about it. Only a self-concept looks and longs for God. Drop your self-concept and there is only God meeting God. Enlightenment is the restoration of cosmic humor.
AdyashantiIf you tell yourself a sad story, the body reacts to that. And if you tell yourself a self-aggrandizing story, the body feels puffed up, confident. But when you realize itโs all stories, there can be a vast waking up out of the mind, out of the dream. You donโt awaken, what has eternally been awake realizes itself. That which is eternally awake is what you are.
