The Insanity of the Human Condition

Enjoy this timely re-post.

open your heart

Wisdom from Adyashanti worth repeating. This was written in 2011…

“In no way can I deny the insanity of the human condition. And yet, because there’s so much insanity, so much unconsciousness, it’s possible that there’s also the other side of it.

Life is always balancing itself out.

So, while all of this is happening, there’s also this undercurrent of people all over the place who have a deep and profound interest in the ultimate nature of reality in themselves—and they are realizing it!

Not only is that now happening among a wider variety and number of human beings, it’s also happening more and more outside of hierarchical institutions.

I think there’s something within all of this, something very authentic, that’s breaking down the barriers between every person and our ideas of what a spiritual person is. It’s sort of a silent, quiet revolution that’s happening.

But even though there’s a lot of awakening, I don’t know if that means we’re at the dawn of some beautiful renaissance age or that the human species will totally selfdestruct. I can see it going either way.

I do think that in our deepest heart we don’t actually want to contribute to the insanity around us. Our nature is, if anything, to be a contributor to sanity and wholeness, to bringing that into manifestation.”

~ Adyashanti

May we stop contributing to the insanity around us and come from our deepest heart.

Stay true to the silent loving revolution towards wholeness and the Light.

Namaste

  1. We always have opposites ‘down here’ so that as this life goes on we go from a lower to a higher awakening…then as we step through…we begin from that lower awareness of the next level, and begin ‘that’ awakening from a more spiritual being that we have become. As above, so below…so to speak. Great post Val, may we ‘awaken’ through it all a little more…and maybe get some wings too 🤣❤️🙏
