"...that's part of the love of truth. In fact, that's the path to truth. The path to truth is having our glorious delusions crumble away. Until that happens, it is literally impossible to realize truth. Truth is what's left when all of our glorious delusions have crumbled away. It's what's left..." ~ Adyashanti

There is an evolutionary edge between the familiar and unknown territories of our direct experience. Adyashanti describes how living on this edge is an essential aspect of the spiritual quest -- as unsettling as it might be at times. He also addresses surrendering to the spiritual impulse, discovering what reality truly is, and evoking the fundamental ground of being.
Topics Include:
Living on the Edge of Truth
The Shattering of Our Belief Systems
A Profound Willingness to Listen
The Practice of Humility
Prioritizing Your Spiritual Commitment
That Which Cannot Be Known
Reality as the Totality
Unknowing Knowledge
Quotes from this Download:
“The world of the known isn’t as known as we think.”
“Reality knows itself as that which cannot be known.”
“Imagine a life where the commitment to truth, peace, God, and reality never ended -- that it was a lifetime commitment. That's what makes for a profound, beautiful life.”
“In the end, it is a total relief to be empty of all of our delusions about self, others, and God. To be relieved of it all is part of the great buoyancy of what it is to be spiritually awake.”
