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.
AdyashantiAt any moment, we are either giving humanity the gift of our clarity or our confusion. And that clarity or confusion is affecting the humanity around us, the world around us. It is manifesting. It is taking form.
AdyashantiThere is a very Simple Secret to being happy. Just let go of your 'demand' on this moment. Any time you have a demand on the moment to give you something or remove something, there is suffering. You're Arguing with 'What Is' - Your demands keep you chained to the 'dream-state' of the conditioned mind. The desire to 'control'... is, ultimately, our unwillingness to just be awake.
AdyashantiWhen we see the world through our thoughts, we stop experiencing life as it really is and others as they really are. When I have a thought about you, thatโs something Iโve created. Iโve turned you into an idea. In a certain sense, if I have an idea about you that I believe, Iโve degraded you. Iโve made you into something very small. This is the way of human beings, this is what we do to each other.
