Adyashanti: Q&A Don't be derailed by boredom...may save you a lot of years...

Описание: Adyashanti: Things aren't always what they appear to be initially, are they? Lots of things in life are that way. And why do people walk right up to the door of that which is liberation, which is the deepest beauty, why do they walk right up to the door and then walk right past it? I'll tell you why—because there's no glittering lights. That's why...

...here's my invitation though: Hang out there for a while. You've just scratched the surface. And the story that it's boring is one of the mind's last defenses, and it's very effective...It's the last gasp of mind 'I'm bored'. Just let go deeper. If I tell you what you'll find, then you'll Chase it. Stay in that state of discovery...Maybe I can save you a lot of time, a lot of years. Who knows? Just see what it's like to dwell in the 'nothing'—to be it.

A lifespan up till this point in the idea that I am Jude...and a lifetime of being that guy, all those stories. Nothing wrong with being that guy. That's what Consciousness does, too, and the opportunity to be the other 99 percent of what you are, that's one percent, the other 99 percent is waiting and the door is marked 'nothing'.

...as your unseen nature really wakes up, then what you can see is that much more beautiful, what you can touch is that much more wonderful. You don't lose anything. So don't be derailed by boredom. Just be bored for a little bit. You might be surprised what's deeper...

...That's the spirit, actually—very intriguing—wow, what is this nothing? What is this? Let me just be with it. Let it have me because it's intriguing...Having been an adventuring sort of guy for a lot of my life, the exterior adventures, they're nothing like what's really inside...they're nothing like adventuring into the infinite, into your infinite nature, touching to the heart of what everything is...
