Conscious Freedom

It is not our idea of ourselves that wakes up—it is the dormant consciousness within that awakens to itself. In this subtle and engaging talk, Adyashanti invites us to see what drives our struggle to awaken and recognize the conscious freedom that is already here as the true nature of everything.

Quotes from this Video:

“The funny thing about samsara is the way never to be caught in it is never to be resisting it.”

“Samsara will be around you forever. It’s like you wake up, but you wake up like an alcoholic that wakes up in a universal bar—‘I’m woken up and I no longer need to drink all this stuff, but gosh, there’s a lot of it around.’”
