Summary

Caution Spiritual Seekers: You Might Just Find What You're Looking For!

Underneath the turmoil of thought, emotion, and personal will, there is a flow. If you're reading these words, you've probably felt it - the natural movement of life, the truth that beckons below the surface of things. What would happen if you were to stop avoiding this universal energy, and instead completely embrace it?

According to author and teacher Adyashanti, herein lies the heart of spiritual awakening - and it's likely to "end your world." Why? Because with spiritual awakening, instead of a new version of you, you find no version of you - your true nature beyond any point of view - "that which is continually partaking of all experience, in each and every instant."

Straight Talk on the Nature of Enlightenment

More and more people today have had a glimpse of this genuine kind of awakening, only to see it slip away after a few hours or days. Adyashanti calls this the "I got it/I lost it" phenomenon that perplexes so many of his students. For those caught between what he calls "non-abiding" awakening and the ultimate state of "abiding" enlightenment, Adyashanti offers The End of Your World - his first in-depth audio course about the remarkable yet enigmatic process of spiritual awakening.With straight talk and penetrating insight, Adyashanti helps you navigate the pitfalls and cul-de-sacs that "un-enlighten" us along the journey, including: the trap of meaninglessness; how the ego can "co-opt" realization for its own purposes; the illusion of superiority that may accompany intense spiritual breakthroughs; and the danger of becoming "drunk on emptiness."Inquiring Sincerely into Every Aspect of Your Life

"Full awakening comes when you sincerely look at yourself, deeper than you've imagined, and question everything," teaches Adyashanti. With 12 bold sessions about topics ordinarily kept private between student and teacher, The End of Your World is your invitation to join Adyashanti for an honest investigation of what you really are - and how to live when you discover it.

Simple, honest & relateable.

I am normally sceptical about spiritual teachers, as I feel most of them get very dogmatic and rigid in their ways.
So naturally I was afraid that it was going to be another dogmatic book, but it was quite the contrary.
He talks in a very simple and relateable way which makes one want to listen.

He understands that speech is keeping us in the dualistic realm so does his best in helping one look past his words to the truth behind them.
He is pointing to the moon so don't get stuck staring at his finger.

Relistenening required

A multi-layered listening experience which requires several hearings to appreciate all the teaching wrapped up in each session.

For advanced

The concepts are really for advanced mind spirit. It’s kind of depressing but having my own awakening is truthful and resonated with me. It’s on another level , it feel like another stage more higher of awakening. In the begging you kind of feel not invested to the book but after a few chapters the book flows

Amazing clarity

Adyashanti brings clarity to very complex ideas. More than ideas. At last an experiential approach with transparent honesty from a deep humility that helps the reader to feel.
Thank you
I will get more from Adya

Very helpful messages

I very much enjoyed this audiobook. It feels quite conversation and steps back from the spiritual journey to be able to see it from another perspective. Not all parts of it resonated with me in the same way but many parts of it have really left a mark. I have found Adyashanti’s teachings some of the most accessible and helpful I have found and I look forward to experiencing more of them.

Invaluable and rare insights

Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Adyashanti shares invaluable and rare insights about a relationship with life seldom spoken of, that is, living life with eyes wide open in perpetual wonderment. These talks are not so much a guide to spiritual attainment. They do not discuss spiritual practices or method. What they do offer is reassurance of the validity of that inner, intuitive intelligence, that 'little voice' that represents an alignment with the path as it opens up. They serve as an encouragement to surrender and stay present in the face of whatever arises, trusting that this is where liberation can only ever be found. Stay with the One who Knows.... Onwards!
