Non-clinging Awareness's video: Guided Meditation with Adyashanti

A guided meditation prayer with spiritual teacher Adyashanti. "Not my will, but the heart's will be done." "All that is necessary to awaken to yourself as the radiant emptiness of spirit is to stop seeking something more or better or different, and to turn your attention inward to the awake silence that you are." "When someone tells you, "I love you," and then you feel, "Oh, I must be worthy after all," that's an illusion. That's not true. Or someone says, "I hate you," and you think, "Oh, God, I knew it; I'm not very worthy," that's not true either. Neither one of these thoughts hold any intrinsic reality. They are an overlay. When someone says, "I love you," he is telling you about himself, not you. When someone says, "I hate you," she is telling you about herself, not you. World views are self views—literally" ― Quotes by Adyashanti "It is far better to grasp the universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring." ― Carl Sagan "Perfect love casts out fear. Where there is love there are no demands, no expectations, no dependency. I do not demand that you make me happy; my happiness does not lie in you. If you were to leave me, I will not feel sorry for myself; I enjoy your company immensely, but I do not cling." ― Anthony de Mello, We do have the precious opportunity of this human life. We can think. We have the freedom to think. We have met with the dharma. Many of us have met with teachers. We do have some idea of what to do and how to practice. And we should not be lazy. The dharma is the most precious thing in the world and we should put it at the center of our hearts and transform our whole lives into dharma practice. Otherwise, at the time of death, we will look back and say, now what was all that about? If we truly want to benefit others and ourselves, we have to do it. No excuses. ~ Tenzin Palmo May we all learn to be happy and full of peace. May no one ever be separated from their happiness. May we all be free of suffering and its causes. May everyone have equanimity, free from hatred and attachment. The gift of the Dharma excels all gifts; The taste of the Dharma excels all tastes; Delight in the Dharma excels all delights. The eradication of Craving overcomes all sorrow. http://dharmaseed.org/
