‘Knowing too much’ I’ve noticed it’s not only in spirituality for me but a lot of things in life, like psychology, dating and even gaming. I’ve recently started to really limit and unfollow a lot of social media. It’s helping
I have stopped running after Samadhis and different states of consciousness etc ,now my main practice is Adhyashanti's true meditation (the one he is describing here) with some hatha yoga.
For years I knew there was what I called the real, the actuality of life beyond my imaginations, I have tapped into it once or twice, but after a recent event I have seen that this which binds all things is not apart from me, it is me, I simply need rest and be rested in that , as that, seems obvious now. Where else would it be but within me, that which binds all things, living presence, truth,I am that, I dissolve into that, like Icarus too close to the ever radiant sun, I look for myself in reflection, looking inwards, but find that which radiates within dissolves me in its gaze and guides me with its ever present light.
Can anyone tell me what is actually resting as Awareness means, how is it practically, and how do I know am resting as Awareness ... Paradoxically is it really possible to rest as awareness ... because the question then is who is or what is resting as awareness ...
Awareness is resting in itself. It's easier if you start watching your thoughts first. Notice that you were there before the thought appeared, you were there watching the thought and you were there after the thought disappeared. That which was aware of all this, is YOU.
@@liviuclipa Thought happens, which is happening most of the time. The thinking seems more deliberate as if a thinker is thinking - if there is really a thinker thinking, why can't he stop thinking for 10 minutes ?. Watching is another thought, there is only one thing at a time that is happening in the mind - either thinking or watching - watching is another kind of thinking/thought. Is there a Me/I - NO. That's the whole illusion, it's just an idea. Thinking is a matter coming out of energy coming out of Nothingness. So is everything is the universe. This is the explanation for the mind by the mind but will there ever be anything that can comprehend the universe that came out of the Universe itself? No. So I, Awareness, and Consciousness are all concepts. Will there be a liberation? who is there to liberate? when the I/Me is an illusion/idea. Liberation is making the non-existent existing, making the idea of 'I" stronger. There was/is/will be nothing/ness or everything. Whatever is anytime is always, and it has nothing to do with Me. because there was/is/will never be Me/I... Let me know anything ..
The level of simplicity that Adyashanti projects in his talk- amazes me every time!
Wonderful!

This is so very poignant! If I took this excerpt alone, and applied it to my life wholly, I would forever be resting in the peace of that knowing. ❤
Its been 3 weeks. How all the bliss and knowing going?
What do you need to do in order to Be?
Rest as awareness! Wooooooow!amazing! 🙏♥️
I’m always amazed that awareness also does not speak in words ❤
Best mindfulness teacher ever!!
Thank you and enjoy your retirement.
Very clear 🙏 ❤️

Ah, yes, the samadhis, dangerous they are
Blazingly clear

Simplicity itself!
That'll do for me .... clarity personified .... thanks.
Osho said this as well...in one of his books...consciousness speaks through many forms...though the result is the same...when its clear❤

Thank you 💐🙏
I’m always amazed that awareness also does not speak in words ❤ 6:40
Thank you
I call it "rest in being"
Thank you! 🙏
For all its shortcomings, I am reminded of a quote from the EST training in the 60s, “understanding is the booby prize. “
All these years later, that succinct little phrase still pops into my head.
坐進此道
the more simple the more advanced
There is no "Awareness enhancement practice"! Haha! Love it! So true. Thank u Adya!

Awareness is the nearest thing that can be found to Identity. Not that identity is personal.

You don't need to do anything in order to Be? 🙏
i don’t know how to deal with him “retiring”…. 😂😢❤
Adya "retiring" and you're not knowing how to deal with it is all happening within the field of awareness. lol
Me too 😢
Rest in awareness 😉🫶
what do you have to do,to be?! There is nothing to do❣️
You are not missing any component of reality! Don't search for it.
Easier said than done.... dadadadada. 😅
He looks like Yoda.
