As Chogyam Trungpa describes enlightenment state to be the final disappointment.

So True. Can Never Go Back Thank God 🙏💜🙏

Dearest Ardya, I can’t thank you enough for your amazing teachings. However, on this point of “oh my God, it’s too late ( it’s happened to me), my experience has been quite different. I honestly feel like I’ve been drawn in this ( Spiritual) direction since I was a little girl. And now I’m so glad that that was my experience! I feel as though the Universe has been very gentle with me, in spite of many difficult periods throughout my life. I love listening to you, and I always feel that I have had some sort realignment, and seeing things from a different viewpoint. I am filled with Gratitude for my roadway throughout life! Blessed be beautiful Soul 🌹

A profound ending to that speech. Awakening is not about ending suffering, suffering is there to make us aware of the issues that really concern the soul, it is there to grab our attention and see the bigger picture, only if you can grow above the monkey mind, general concerns and general uncosciousness is when you mature enough to really see what the whole point is, and you don't really need to do anything, the situations and events that need to happen will come of themselves in your life. We don't create righteousness with our ego mind - that's just another self-gratification trip, you simply let yourself sink into it, and everything falls into place, then the great ones appear and talk out of their inner experience, not some book knoweledge or fancy concepts that they merely vaguely understand in logical terms.

It's terrifying and I'm grateful. ❤️

Total surrender.Comes with grace of god.Respect for parents.

Aaaah, ich fühle mich so auf den Schlipps getreten :D Danke Adya! :)

This is sobering and beautiful.

So good to hear this spoken about. Thank you ❤️

Very well explained, I'd say it's spot on! I also remember that 'morning', standing in front of my coffee machine and finding no recognizable 'me', there was nothing. Game changer. It's the pathless destination. You cannot grasp the tao (way), it will slip through your fingers. That which we are cannot be described by word or captured by concept, our true nature is beyond mind. The limited mind can never access it, that's why the parallel teaching across Taoism, Buddhism, Advaita Vedanta, etc., is to learn to quiet the mind. Once experienced, like Maharshi has said, the questions will be dissolved. Just like the stick that stirs the fire all night, eventually it will be tossed into the fire and comsumed as well :) This is an ACCURATE, honest and direct video, 100%. Listen closely, listen to the spaces between the words, for if not for the spaces, the words wouldn't be discernable :)

Beautiful!

yes it is lovely and it's upsetting all at the same time. Well, not that upsetting because I'm fortunate enough to still have most of my family and friends with me (alive) and I can at least enjoy being with them for as long as I can! But for those who have died, and for all of those past times..it's true -I can't go back. Whatever was done and said, is all there will ever be (in this life time anyway).. sigh

When you are old enough…….you just don’t care whatsoever.🙏🌈

Love you, Adya. Yes. Thank you.

"Your head is caught in the tiger's mouth" ... probably the best way to put it. Hadn't heard that before. Does give the right meaning to "fear of god".

So true. Sometimes it's confusing. Thank you

You touch my heart

yes indeed!

112417...day after thanksgiving..this is very sobering!!

grief more than fear...

👍

It was so depressing. I dont get why we even have the mind, ego, to begin with. Feels like a cruel game, unless im missing some additional info in this

Pretty funny talk. Laugh out loud funny

🐅 mouth. Thank you, I feel less crazy 🙏

What is the name of the talk this was excerpted from? I'd like to listen to the whole thing. Thank you for posting.

This is how I’m feeling right now, and I’m grateful for your wisdom!

A bit surprised he said if he had the choice he’d go the other way…I mean, doesn’t sound like a space to strive for. I’d think worldly life isn’t what he’d even desire at this point.

I'd like to listen to the whole talk this is taken from.... Can you direct me where i can find it? Thanks

When I feel really really terrible, like suicidal, adya’s voice is the only thing that keeps me going

The kicker is you have never existed....☯️🕉❤️🙏🏼

Anyone see an elephants head?

One mental potential energy periodically become conscious and start dreaming this imaginary existence and I am that.forget everything else.

Oh, thank you Adya! I have been thinking maybe I should try to teach this shit to others. This losing of all self identity. Realizing no self. Complete and total liberation from the world of humans. At least from the unconscious ones. 99% of the planet. But, F that. I'll probably be one of those vagabonds walking around barefoot...smiling. Y'all can just figure it out on your own. Lol. ✌😎

Total and absolute surrender is inevitable.

Funny guy.

False "spirituality" with a small "s" reminds me of a Jimi Hendrix lyric "so castles made of sand slips into the sea eventually

bingo

Lots of claw marks 😅 "oh and you still think that this is about you and what you want. I'm sorry.....

For a talk on Spirituality this contains rather a lot of frivolous uses of the word God.

Where is you heart Adyashanti - preaching it in your teachings and making child into man abuser after cutting motherhood. And stealing intellect, femininity and health snd soul to Canadian Chinese mothers? Mukti not having courage to stand in light of truth and justice for what she did to me and my child
