Into the Ultimate

The entirety of Adyashanti's teaching is based on a very simple principle—tracing the sense of self back into its source, its ultimate subjectivity. In this enlightening retreat talk and related dialogue, Adya emphasizes that this backward step is not just a conceptual inquiry but also an experiential, intuitive, and meditative exploration that leads us beyond any subject/object separation. Eventually, if we push all the way back, we fall out of subjectivity altogether and into the ultimate source of all experience.

Topics Include: Two Ways Back to Source / Pushing through the Noise / Losing Subject and Object / A Living Curiosity / Beyond Subjectivity / Forms of Desire / Awareness of Heart / The Oneness of Seer, Seeing, and Seen / The Question that Most Resonates with You

Quotes from this Download:  “We tend to think of being subjective in a negative light, as a form of self-obsession or narcissism.  There is a subjectivity that is much more profound.” • “The ultimate subject can never be an object…Self is the objective and subjective.” • “At some point inquiry stops being a tool. The more it becomes integrated in you, the more it becomes a living curiosity.” • “Relax the effort to find the peace that is all along the way, not only at the end.”
