The Totality and the Particular

We are all one Divinity, yet we are also all individual expressions of the Divine. As Adyashanti illustrates in this 2018 Vancouver Intensive, we can either try to escape the suffering that comes with our individual expression or realize that the samsara is valuable; it is through being human that the Divine becomes conscious of itself. Adyashanti offers guidance on dealing with various human predicaments as he explores how the Divine manifests as both the totality and the particular.
