Wednesday July 2nd, 2008 Adyashanti: What Is Enlightenment? Many people think that enlightenment is an altered state of consciousness.
Actually, what we perceive every day through the distorted lens
of ego is the truly altered state -- we see things that don't
exist, we believe things that aren't happening, and we live in
a false world of our own creation. In this direct and practical
satsang, Adyashanti opens the door into the clear seeing that
is our natural state of enlightenment.
Wednesday July 9th, 2008 Adyashanti: What Is Being? Have you ever noticed that while your body, thoughts, and emotions
are totally different than they were years ago, there is something
about you that hasn't changed at all? In this clear and dynamic
satsang, Adyashanti illuminates this unchanging sense of "I"
as the ultimate dimension that we have been seeking all along.
This satsang includes a superb dialogue about how to respond to
suffering in the world.
Wednesday July 16th, 2008 Adyashanti: Relationship with Thought What is your relationship to that endless stream of thoughts in your head? Do you take them to be yours? Do you believe your thoughts - noble, negative, scary, or otherwise? In this riveting satsang, Adyashanti guides us through a spiritual inquiry that breaks down our compulsive adherence to thought.
Wednesday, July 23rd, 2008 Adyashanti: Understanding to Realizing How do you go from intellectual understanding to a direct realization of your true nature? Although there is no predictable process to bring about realization, Adyashanti describes what you can do to ground your understanding in silence. Then, by resting in that quiet place of stillness, what is eternally true has the opportunity to reveal itself.
Wednesday, July 30th, 2008 Adyashanti: The Cause of Suffering Have you noticed that all the ways we try to make ourselves feel better don't seem to work in the long run? Treating the symptoms is not the answer; --only at the root level does change occur. Freedom from suffering is only possible if we clearly see its underlying cause. In this definitive, direct, and accessible satsang, Adyashanti explains the mechanics of suffering and offers a simple yet powerful way to see beyond the misperceptions that cause it.
