Quotes from this Video:
“Soul is a purpose beyond self. Soul is the place that wants to meet life as an offering, as a gift, and as a demonstration of love.” -Jonathan
“Do what the world is trying to become.” -Adya
“Soul is a symbol for the place from which deep meaning issues forth into our lives.” -Jonathan
“You have to be open to the world finding you.” -Adya
“Soul is a place inside of a person that is their destiny. Soul is perception, it’s a mode of being, it’s an imaginal perceiving in which deep meaning can sprout. Soul directs us to an aliveness, depth, and sacredness of our purpose.” -Jonathan
“Because of our self-reflective capacity, we can imagine many purposes that are not our own.” -Jonathan
This opportunistic idea, that you should do what the world wants you to become, leads directly to the "brave new world (order)". If the soul would be merely an affirmation and fulfillment of social and psychological tendencies, then it would trully be better to not being born at all.
Soul is the reality per se, it transcends world and psyche, yet it also brings them apparent aliveness. Therefore to know it (the soul), is entirely impossible - for the psyche - but that's anyway the only purpose of its existence and the only "work" worth doing - to know thyself as the soul.
I love this Adya ! I really truly appreciate you reaching out and collaborating with others to explore different topics. Wonderful 😊
Id like to just Share that although this is very noble, hás someone very serviceoriented you mustnt neglect your passions ever.
We dont all have the same life experinces. Some of us, believe it or not never had very ego cenetered desires. Só its different to approach this question after tasting some personal fulfillment on life....and having tasted nome.
I continue to come back to your channel, becausse you speak to something deep within. You speak to my soul, as this timely podcast episode suggests. Thanks!
hi adya, can u talk more about the awakening process after the dark night/erosion of the personal will phase? there's little info out there regarding post-dark night, though I know it's now all about discovering for myself what flowers, but u know, it's just nice to know hehe
Hey Adya, Nice idea to start a podcast.
I would love to hear you talk to someone about U.G Krishnamurti. Like Lewis Brawley (Who was in Buddha at the gas pump) or someone similar.
Or just to hear your thoughts about someone like U.G.
He has spoken on UG in the past, perhaps only briefly but he has.
Adya "UG Krishnamurti sure ended up being right"
@@cjjohnson353 That is extremely interesting. Do you know when did he said that?
And what was UG ended up being right for?
@@nikolawesthemkg I believe he was right about 'you will be shocked to find out that there was never a you there to get enlightened in the first place or something to that effect. Search for "Jed McKenna UG Krishnamurti" on RUclips and listen to the roughly 45 minutes vid. There is an audio clip in the middle of Adya saying this.
Not sure what talk or retreat the clip is from so I don't know when he said it. There is no doubt that UG and Adya are the real deal.
It's worth listening to the whole video. The books by the author with the pseudonym Jed McKenna are also the real deal. You can recognize when words are being said that have 99.99 per cent of all falsehood removed.
@@cjjohnson353 i have a theory that adya IS jed mckenna and wrote the trilogy of books under a pseudonym to teach in a different way. Most of the time his retreats are in alignment with what most people would consider "spiritual", or flowery. But I think Adya had a real "let's get to the point here" way about himself in his younger years, remember when he used to cuss all the time in satsang and was gently guided away from that because so many so-called "spiritual" old people were so conventional and thought that a real master wouldn't be swearing? Anyways, it's of my opinion that Adya teaches for the heart in satsang, but taught from the mind in the Jed Mckenna books. Considering Adya's teachings on the heart & head it's not so much a stretch to think he may have wanted to strike at both points for maximizing his teachings. Also, another tip off was some of the things "Jed" said in his books sounded A LOT like some of the stuff Adya says, and I don't mean universal "spiritual" truths, I mean like slang and stories, just changed up enough to hide his identity.
@@cjjohnson353 I thought that JJ Krishnamurti denounced GG as a heretic? And that GG was not in alignment with JJ. Interesting that Adya chose GG over JJ. Can you clear any of this up?
Can i ask a question? How does BLISS feel? I heard a lot about, what is not awakening. Can we hear about what it is? I would like to know how does it feel? I feel emptiness, but i want to know the other side as well.. the joy and peace part, the oneness. I would like to know how does that feel... i know now, what is not that... but how does that BLISS feel?
Loved this, thanks
I had the same experience with the TV program Kung Fu.
Who's the poet? Rilke?
michael mcclure I believe it’s Walt Whitman. I remember Adya reading his poetry at a retreat once and referring to him as his favorite poet.
stéphane ouzlan Rilke is my favorite.
