Whatever you can become will ultimately be destroyed. Only what you already are can't be taken away.
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.
