Knowing Yourself Completely

It’s a strange paradox—you can’t find or lose yourself. And yet knowing yourself is vital, for as Adyashanti says, “If we do not bring forth that which is within us, we destroy ourselves individually and collectively.” In this satsang, he underscores the importance of not only knowing our essential nature but also recognizing all forms of life as an expression of the same spirit.

Topics Include: Bringing Forth What’s Within / Seeking Can’t Fill You / What Spirit Really Is / Turning Awareness Back on Itself / Returning to Form / The Purification in Grieving / Everyone Is Using / The Pause When Angry

Quotes from this Download: “We don’t have the option of avoiding human complexity. We can’t hide in our own nirvanic castle.” • “Reality is backwards and upside down to what we assume. The more we seek to be filled up, the emptier we feel.” • “One part of the journey is transcendence; the next, imminence.” • “Everything is the search for self. I am here to usher you into that ‘I.’”
