Together we stand alone Alone we stand together Nothing has ever been missing Timelessly tasting time As we ever re~member

Beautifully spoken!

A loving teacher. Thank You.

Wonderful talk. Ady' s gift is to communicate complexity with simplicity. Difficult. What a gift.

This and the "karma" talk by Adya have been the two I have gotten the most out of. I had a day where I felt completely alone as the universe and it was wonderful... that changed of course. I guess that something is still too scared to let concepts of the past and the future die, even though it's whats wanted the most.

Aloneness into Al /Oneness with A Spirit of All Oneness.

So extremely fine! This xactly now I am 81! My teacher told me that he couldn’t help me to open the door…. Many years ago…

Thank you for this! 🌞🌟

So good

Such direct and simple guidance, Namaste

I had an awakening too my utter and complete aloneness several years ago. I’ve busied myself with seeking and so on, playing out my little predetermined role exactly as I should. The views or seeing into that aloneness are back. I’m getting more and more little glimpses as if playing peekaboo with emptiness. It’s waving 👋 and although I don’t believe the stories attached to what emptiness and aloneness are, I find them more palatable. Stories about souls, god(s) etc. There seems to be a deep chasm of grief I’m supposed to cross before letting go of the comforting stories. Equally, I don’t know that those are not true. What if I’m wrong? David Hawkins warned of a limbo one could get stuck in thinking oneself liberated. Well, shit. Guess I’ll go play outside or something

All-One 🙏

Aloneness There are levels of awakening. It seems the level of awakening Adyashanti is referring to here is not full liberation but the state of duality or “witnessing” that can happen before unity or oneness. But at times he seems to be referring to liberation itself, in which there is only pure awareness in which no sense of possessor or possession arises. It’s pretty clear the questioner is not experiencing this. I often feel Adya lets people go home feeling they are awakened, even when it is only a preliminary level, which my Chinese and Burmese Buddhist teachers would never do. Rather, they would only point to that which is not yet seen, which I feel is much more compassionate and humbling. Celebration of attainment is purely an egoic activity. From the liberated view, there is nothing to attain. There is only ownerless awareness ever unfolding. There is no now, no static present moment. Only silence and the non-separate play of silence. And from this, love, appreciation, gratitude, compassion flow. Is this aloneness? Yes, in that this alone is. I do love Adya’s pointing out that there is no returning from this direct seeing of silent awareness, no backing out. It is absorption into what is, including the perception of how this seeing is obscured and leads to misperception and suffering. There is no returning from this kind of awakening.

i want to warn people who experience aloneness or loniness, pursuing a spiritual path comes with yet still a lot of concepts of separateness, i.e. “soul” “incarnations” “past lives” “levels of awareness”. This is but food for the ego to again generate separateness. But as beautiful as this spiritual bypassing may seem, eventually it will not take away or erase emotions/feelings/sensations of loneliness for good. Even with a proper perspective of non-dual energetic awareness, excluding previous named concepts like souls, levels, God etc. you will be left with a perspective, but the perspective does not erase your natural emotional system which is designed to connect and relate to other beings in everyday life, it is just added to it. Sometimes it is easier to let a sense of peace be dominant, sometimes it isn’t. We must deeply realize that our societal system is operating such to inflict separateness, individualism and hence loneliness onto it’s participants. Relationships, families, communities, all this stuff within our society is but another level of individualism. We are conditioned with a sense of separate self, and despite methods to decondition our own system, this system will continuously be triggered to separate itself again. The hard work is this: realizing aloness will no go away, feeling all the emotions that come with it, all the desires to commune, to lose the self. It basically just sucks for most of the time, added with some trained sense of peace now and then, but every small fragment of freedom that can be found in this endeavour is still worth it, cuz it is the only sense of control we can establish and maintain.

I wonder if fear of this aloneness is a contributing factor to why seekers encounter so much difficulty becoming finders.

Guys i didnt get the whole ego aloneness independance and the enlightened ones aloneness part could somebody explain to me please?

All this sucks
