The Imprint of Being

What does it mean to not just awaken to our true being but to be rooted in it? In this talk, Adyashanti explores how our body-mind system can be energetically imprinted by either confusion or clarity. If we don’t get caught in the mind’s repeated forgetfulness of being, and call forth this essence, we access the power to take deeper root in the dimension of being.

Topics Include:

• Being Rooted in Being
• Feeling the Imprint of Beingness
• Getting Distracted from Being
• Ending the Search for the True Story
• No Self vs. Selflessness
• Ways We Avoid the Void

Quotes from this Download: 

“Being is not itself an experience, yet it leaves an experiential imprint on all levels of our experience.”

“No-self living is like being an alcoholic who becomes sober and wakes up finding he or she has to live in a bar.”

“We have to see the wounded sense of self at an existential level and see its function.”

“Stillness and Being are not to be seen as the endpoints; they’re the foundation for living.”
