Adyashanti - The old seeker

From an retreat in Netherlands 2013 with Adyashanti.
Adyashanti, author of Falling into Grace, True Meditation, and The End of Your World, is an American-born spiritual teacher devoted to serving the awakening of all beings. His teachings are an open invitation to stop, inquire, and recognize what is true and liberating at the core of all existence.
Asked to teach in 1996 by his Zen teacher of 14 years, Adyashanti offers teachings that are free of any tradition or ideology. "The Truth I point to is not confined within any religious point of view, belief system, or doctrine, but is open to all and found within all." Based in California, Adyashanti lives with his wife, Mukti, Associate Teacher of Open Gate Sangha. He teaches throughout North America and Europe, offering satsangs, weekend intensives, silent retreats, and a live internet radio broadcast.
"Adyashanti" means primordial peace.

"It takes humility to accept your humanity."

I was in this retreat =)

So when you reject something about your self you become attached to your character...that makes so much sense. Thanks

[@MsAnnieAnna]

The man who askes the question has a lot of courage!
I recognize that movement from the ground of being to a kind of personality. Great to ask whether that is needed. Not so easy to stay so clear,

[@emil5884]

This one was really educational.

[@ALittleNobody]

The key to not attach to your personhood, is to completely accept your personhood.... this is the only way....

[@UkeGirl100]

Ming Yang I think that will be my spiritual focus from now on.

Just getting into Adyashanti, he's very kind.

This is exactly the problem I've been dealing with. For 5 years I've been pretty much a hermit. Alone in nature there is usually no "little Sue". I am just awareness /timeless contentment. As soon as I interact with people I shrink down into personhood, with all my neurosis and annoying ego trips/ anger/sadness etc....I hate it!!...It's exhausting. I just don't have it in me to do it anymore. 😐I don't know how to interact with people anymore. I have no interest in hearing peoples trivial drama or my own.😳

I second that experience.
I’m ready to just be done and go back to non existence or whatever although my ego is scared of hell realms.
Meh. One day soon enough we’ll all die. The cast will be replaced and apparently this goes on for fucking ever.
Oh the joy 😂

[@sohara....]

It's a year since you made this comment ... how are things now? Thanks, if you have time to reply.
Hope I see it ... Will come back to have a look as TH-cam doesn't send me notifications any more (since I deleted it then reinstalled it; just giving context in case I don't reply).
Am new to Adyashanti ... from nearly everyone else! Including Tony Parsons, Terry Stephens, Byron Katie ... Sailor Bob (lovely man) ...

[@cbatara80]

One of my favorite ones. Thanks eternal.

[@mariannesteiner899]

Nice conversation ❤

[@fuldagermany]

Being aware is awareness .... that is the ground of being ...

[@SiihNikte]

This is true

[@gavinduggan199]

Thanks for posting this, great vid that provides a lot of clarity

[@jeanettem8304]

That was exactly what I needed to hear. Thank you both so much.

[@agyratingmonkey]

Mysticism shattering tysm

[@katebeatham333]

Wonderful, thank you. May we all be free and happy.

[@happylifeSteph]

[@at-last]

12:00 is it necessary to leave ground of being to interact?
