I love Adyashanti. I get a real sense of warmth from him, just as I do Tolle. Hey, maybe we should start a thread about him.  |

Sometimes God also takes the guise of Yugoslavian socialist philosphers... Zizek.

...discovering a Truth that will turn your view of self and life upside-down.
One is ready when they are willing to be absolutely consumed, when they are willing to be fuel for a fire without end.
He does say things well.
