Thank you Adya, for your reminder of what is normal and beautiful and desirable and doable! It's so easy (for me!) to get caught up in the political contentions, especially at this time of the year, but a lot of that is, after all, just politics--and not much to do with real life. Thank you for your simple and strait forward reminders of what after all puts us back in the heart. Back into love.
Does anyone know what he would say to: You have two choices. Option one: you follow your heart, your intuition, your inner calling, but when you do, others suffer, people you care about, and there suffering would last for 20 years or more. Option two: You push down that calling within you to help someone in need. You have no more free time and you’ll be doing this for 20 years or more, but they need you, and your suffering is reducing the suffering of others. What would he say to do?
Idk what he would say, but this is such a tight squeeze it's one of those things that the mind can't figure out on its own, it will just think you in circles, hitting you with a confusing mix of emotions. I would investigate the feelings for a moment, without attachment to imagining the details of these two options. And without identifying your Self with either, no labeling or judging for a moment. Sit quietly with all of it, with the fear, the love, the longing, the calling. Let these things exist all at once in your body, acknowledge that it is a complicated situation and life is interconnected and messy like this, we have many threads that intersect with other people's threads. If shame comes up, wonder what is deeper than the shame. If any fear comes up, wonder what is deeper than the fear. Instead of asking your mind directly which to choose, sit with whatever comes up out of this silence. Know that whichever way, you may feel tension towards the other way. But there is no way to lose any part of yourself in either direction. Both roads are part of your journey.
Find your deep sanity, deep peace, and deep love by _letting go_ of your conceptual self, and embracing who and what you truly are: the one "I Am" consciousness that we all share🙏in non-dual clarity. 🧘♂️ Namaste 🕉
“You’re born into a world peopled with people who see the world, see themselves and see you in a very particular way.” These damn people peopling (shakes angry fist 😂)
Realise that you are this deep love, deep peace and enjoy the play of being "normal"
감사합니다 덕분입니다
Being 81 now i came to experience what you say Adyashanti more and more, therefore for me it’s like a confirmation.🙏

4:57 so true. We hedge ourselves in.
True Adyashanti about what’s normal. I have the book by Gabor Maté ‘The myth of Normal, Trauma, Ilness and Healing in a Toxic culture.

Is beauty inherently pleasurable or only apparent due to contrast of the painful ugly

To thine own *self* be true - comes to mind. But that's my perspective on it.
