I love how Adya will bring up the Election from time to time. If you can't apply these concepts to our everyday wacky world of Politics and fierce dual opposition going on, then you're completely missing it. Adyashanti is a very authentic teacher.
Everything is rising and falling, ascending and descending, coming in and going out, living and dying, life is calling forth life. Everything is one thing that is constantly changing form. Form is the illusion the essence is the reality.
"Be the change you want to see in the world." Being as the opposite of becoming. I love Roger Castillo's benchmark: "Happiness through peace of mind, in daily living, independent of circumstances." What do I really want? Ego can be busy with spirituality for decades, always escaping its exposure.
Love you Holger, really ego escaping exposure and using spirituality as a means for it , absolutely true , thanks for letting me see my own stupidity, thanks , love you, thanks, love you
Thank you so much Adyashanti! I am grateful for you and for being able to listen to and open up to your beautiful, beautiful teachings! Thank you thank you thank you!
“If you haven’t really done your work, if you haven’t found the inner resource of clarity or peace or love or whatever you want to see in the world, then you’ll feel more on edge, because you won’t be coming from a place of being the change that you want to see in the world. You’ll be coming from an attitude of wanting the world to change, so that you can be at peace. Of wanting the world to change, so you can feel safe and secure and loving. But I think if we’re engaged in a deep, spiritual orientation, that comes with a kind of responsibility. And the responsibility is to be able to find within ourselves want we want to find or would desire to find in the world around us. Part of spirituality is taking that responsibility so that you become the manifestation of whatever change that you want to see. You become it in your attitude, in the way you feel, in the way you move in the world, in the actions that you decide to take. To me this is really the heart of the spiritual life.” - Adyashanti
Ah yes, this is like arriving at an oasis after slogging through the desert. Thank you, Adya, for being there--first for yourself, then for the gift of yourself to the rest of us. I got so lost in the turmoil of the political scene throughout 2017, I forgot myself and wondered why I felt so torn apart. I've had to pull back from all of that to find that inner peace within myself once more. To just be open once more to the possibility there is something, even within me, that is the answer. Something within me supported the decision to pull back. To just stop, To be still. To breathe. To come home to what I know is where I need to start from. Thank you, Adya. And blessings.
Thank you for such timely dialogue. I appreciate that you’re really trying and dedicated to describe a difficult topic. I needed to hear this, my hunger so strong.
Thank you Adya. For me questions are so important, more so than answers (I started writing just as you mentioned curiosity and then what I was going to say! I love the synchronicities...) - but they need to be the right ones, as you said. I love "what is life calling forth?" - it's similar to "what's trying to emerge?"...Kyle Cease asks this a lot, from Michael Beckwith I believe, though I'm not so familiar with him (I'm just trying to make sure I cite people, give them credit...). But it's been this way since I was young and first read Rilke's lovely Letters to a Young Poet, with the famous quote within the passage "Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms and like books that are now written in a very foreign tongue. Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps you will then gradually, without noticing it, live along some distant day into the answer." I have a dissociative disorder, a form of complex ptsd, and find curiosity to be the best antidote to the extremely harsh internal critic. It's impossible to be 'cusiously judgemental' hehe. Anyway - thank you for all your teachings, and for that question...it's going on various post-its right now so I don't forget! Much love
Adya, this statement is almost the same as i sometimes feel along as i go. i'm saying this because it's sort of an answer to that incentive. i'll try to put it in words. this right now is the summit of life: this right here is reason i am, to listen to this video, to type in these letters, to honor the entire creation, cycles and cycles of it... with presence. this is where all stops. here in this moment is the beginig and the end. everything jammed into this... time being a continous unfolding... so, *what is life calling forth in you: to be present in the only point where everything is.* i know it sounds fatalistic and dramatic and almost nuts but in reality it's not at all... it's real easy and simple - only this
Adya, I don't mean to be forward, but I must thank you for the years of work you have brought forth, and I would like it if you continued to bring us the wisdom of self. thank you
I thought about this in relation to White Suprematists. If one asks, "what would you like the world to become?" A "proud boy" could possibly answer, " I would like the world to become a community of white people." And then one could ask, "and why would you like that?" He might baulk to answer, because the answer would involve the desire to feel safe, supported, and loved.
Adja ,you are great.Everything you say ,or whatever you say and may be not so important what you say ,resonates with me inside.I am very happy and thankful that I live with such a marvelous people like you.Thank you for your work.
Thank you for this. Metta to all beings I wanted to say that it is really difficult to not come from a place of anger today with everything going on. Personally I would love to see more connectedness instead of anger but the truth is that I feel that a lot of peoples anger in the system in America is quite justified. Then there is guilt and shame for not being as angry, here comes the disconnect and separateness, that I am different so I cannot feel the same and all I can do is have empathy but it is not enough. Then it makes me feel that I am not doing enough to help. Of course when I look deeper, and I actually talk to people, this is not the case but I wonder how many people feel that way. That they are doing their best to be enough in this world, but the media is constantly telling them that they aren't enough. I guess that this is nothing compared to the grief of others. We just did a tonglen mediation in our group and it finally hit me, for so long I would be numb in these meditations, but today I really felt the smoke....
Love you love you, ah, even to be able to feel the pain and let yourself cry is like revealing a sparkling space in debris and smoke, your silence, your smile, your heart,which keep staring through your words is really a blessing, love you, love you
Wow ... Thank you for making this great video! You are right that We must understand ourselves truly Before we can be the gift to the world that nature intends us to be. 😃 哇 ... 感謝您製作這個精彩的視頻！ 您是對的 在我們成為大自然希望我們成為這個世界的禮物之前 我們必須真正了解自己。
Yep, "Be the change you want to see in the world". No system alone can be a savior because people create systems, shape them, corrupt them. The work HAS to happen with people, from within, then everything else will fall into place. (Related to: "It is far easier to fight for principles than to live up to them.") From my experience people know the BS they're practicing, but fuel it with an imagined inner justification, which further drives them into vicious denial of that. The philosophy side of Eastern martial arts is tremendously important as a cultural good. Strength/quality of character - you will probably not find that taught in school classes. Not only, but in part because you'd need qualified teachers first. And they might even exist, but who is to decide on qualification? Here the system is guarded against change from the top, mostly. Hypocrisy is rampant where people refuse to make an effort to better themselves. Like so often, change probably needs to come as a grassroots movement first, through 'regular joes' supporting each other in that difficult endeavor. As for me, as might be noticeable, I've made such an effort in the face of adversity that perceiving the contrast is almost unbearable. I've been fooled by convenient people, tricked into believing I was the bad person and needed to work on myself. Eventually I learned that that was projection practiced by the mentally lazy. Now I often wish I could just adapt a little so I can take a deep breath and not feel like surrounded by antibodies. But I cannot manage to adapt to misery and selfishness, to eat-or-be-eaten, so I prefer to isolate and give appreciation to the light that emerges from within me. But the mix of boredom and hope-/aimlessness that comes with it can be torture. Balance brings health and my efforts to give are so very often punished hard. When a clear pattern emerges and no more punishment can be endured, the lesson has to be acknowledged. Because the other side of the love coin is lack of caring for oneself. There is such a thing as focusing too little on oneself. This can be a typical symptom that comes with empathy, emotional intelligence, sensitivity. Respect, too, needs to originate from within.
optizap let go of all, all is you to let go of. You are you to let go of, to let go of is to give yourself to nothing, the nothing that is you. You are nothing so you let go of nothing to be all, all in all you are everything to be nothing. MP
I dont think life is calling anything from me. Every time i try to do anything my health stops me. Ill just deteriorate until i fall into a pointless death.
hello Adyashanti I have a question, because I have a hard time ignoring issues that are happening in the world. So at this point in the world a lot of men and women in Iran stand up for their freedom and risk their lives by doing so. They are asking our help, the help of the world and its diaspora elsewhere. I feel the obligation and a deep yearning and responsiblity to help them. Freeing these women and men from their theocracy governed society. And with theocracy I mean more like a dictatorship, where the people can not speak up and women are being controlled in the street to see if they wear their hijab right by the morality police, because if they don't, they risk their life. At this point a lot of young girls march in the street, as young as 7 and rise against this dictatorship. This regime in Iran makes sure that the internet gets cut off so people can not talk about it globally, however some hackers did bring the news to us. If these protests die out, the Iranians being imprisoned risk to be executed, which is already happening. Girls are getting raped and killed. I just don't know how to stay balanced and help others and at the same time find peace within myself when I hear these terrible things which are happening. What can I do to 1) help others and 2) stay sane and balanced. Thank you! Warm regards
Thank you for your question. Adyashanti does not personally respond to comments/questions. However, we can direct you to an audio download in Adya's online store called "Caring for the World" which addresses the issues you are asking about. Here is a link to more information: bit.ly/3f8pifQ ~ The Open Gate Sangha Support Team
I stoped at a stop sign and waited for a couple to cross the street and thought for a moment what its like to be them. They are across from me and they are no less important than me. Yesterday though I stomped out a tiny cockroach and thought how i just like them, came to this world to die. Something will stomp me out eventually.
Love hearing this stuff but really before we can "go within" we have to get off the money system we're on. Why is this never mentioned? Money is the biggest motivator of almost all people on earth. Yet this is never mentioned?
@@beatereich5466 It keeps us in a state of deficit and deficiency. When money is created, a debt is also created, a debt that is multiple times more than the money created. Therefore whenever we use money, we are generating the perpetuation of that debt state. The antidote is very easy - get rid of interest. That is the mechanism that makes money a bludgeon to humanity. It's not an accident. Without interest, everyone would be prosperous. But we also have to upgrade from our position as cattle - from being told what to do, from the dominator culture that puts a boss or an institution above the individual. That's if we truly want autonomy. Money is the mechanism which keeps us like cattle.
@@deniseward002 in MY reality I don't experience that! Because I habe totaly different perspective.....and because of that......I experience it different. However...... everybody has its own perspective and also points of view. And I am fine with that😊
@@beatereich5466 I'm not arguing that everyone has their point of view. I'm stating that money keeps us like cattle, it keeps us cowering to the ones with money. Our entire culture is based on exploitation. You DO experience that - what are you talking about? You're in denial that's all. You pay taxes don't you? You have a bank account don't you? You have to buy food don't you? Energy? Work for money or get paid by government. You do experience all that probably, you simply don't wish to question it. You may be fine with it, but that is another subject. It's always a choice to accept it and or reject it. However try rejecting money and see how it bludgeons you. Your denial only highlights how addictive and insidious money is where we don't even notice what it does to our intelligence.
Whats talk against this talk is at you find peace first be fore you change the world....tell me now whitch person on this caranteenplanet are in peace? Look who is charge of the planet they succeed very well evil from the core or stupid as hell it works out fine for them at peace on many level.
I hear you man. What happened is, how long can one talk about awakening? Adya's been giving lengthy talks on this theme or that, to crowds of sycophantic idealistic people for many years now. Should he keep talking about Emptiness and all that crap? How can he? So he shares his "thoughts" on this mundane bullshit about how to respond to the "crazy world" for worried gray-haired people who have no real interest in enlightenment, only in attending their new-age spiritual church and being comforted by master Adya.

As it is within, so it is without. Love and Peace.
Everything is rising and falling, ascending and descending, coming in and going out, living and dying, life is calling forth life. Everything is one thing that is constantly changing form. Form is the illusion the essence is the reality.
Thanks for all the teachings
"Be the change you want to see in the world."

Still listening...still learning...Thank you ,Adya, for the gentle clarity of your message...
So gratefull to be able to listen to you ❤
Be what the world is trying to become.
❤️ that.
It's similar to Gandhi isn't it...be the change you want to see in the world.
A different angle but still...
There is no greater spiritual teacher than Adya.

Thanks 👍
Thank you Adya

Thank you so much 😊
He could have given this talk in 2020 or today... Perhaps we are at the end of this turbulent time, or at the beginning.

What happened to Adyashanti??
It sounds like mind-talk!! Flat. Sad.
I hear you man. What happened is, how long can one talk about awakening? Adya's been giving lengthy talks on this theme or that, to crowds of sycophantic idealistic people for many years now. Should he keep talking about Emptiness and all that crap? How can he? So he shares his "thoughts" on this mundane bullshit about how to respond to the "crazy world" for worried gray-haired people who have no real interest in enlightenment, only in attending their new-age spiritual church and being comforted by master Adya.
Like I said - sad.
Yaddashanti? xD
I’ve changed so much, I don’t recognize you !? :)
SOCIOPATHY.
Not sure what people see in this guy. Very dull.
Perhaps Zen is not for you?
Thank you
