Wisdom of the Unknown

What if you were to suspend everything you know for just a moment? What then would constitute your reality? As Adyashanti points out, most human beings operate from what they think they know to be true and overlook how all conceptual knowledge is merely symbolic, yet we take these symbols to be reality. In this luminous and engaging 95-minute talk, he transmits the powerful and revealing presence of the infinite unknown, and explores the deeper wisdom that arises from not referencing the world of “the known” as ultimate reality.

Topics Include:

• The Wisdom Beyond Knowledge
• Conflict Comes from Knowledge
• Suspending What You Know About Anything
• Meditating without Techniques, Assumptions, or Preferences
• What Really Is the Unknown?
• The Cage of the Known
• Slipping Under the Knowing Mind
• Never Ending Embodiment
