We meditate silently for 15 or 20 minutes, then listen to an Adyashanti audiotape.
The tape is of Adyashanti speaking live to students at a retreat or another event.
Frequently, there is a discussion afterwards.
Sunday's talk is different from Friday's talk.
The Unity of Taos Meditation Dome is at Chamisa Mesa High School on Blueberry Hill Road.
Driving directions. More info.
A donation of $3 to Unity of Taos is requested.
Please be on time.
Adyashanti invites us to take the possibility of liberation in this life seriously. He began teaching in 1996, at the request of his Zen teacher with whom he had been studying for 14 years. Since then many spiritual seekers have awakened to their true nature while spending time with Adyashanti.
The author of Emptiness Dancing, The Impact of Awakening, and My Secret is Silence, Adyashanti offers spontaneous and direct nondual teachings that have been compared to those of the early Zen masters and Advaita Vedanta sages. However, Adya says, “If you filter my words through any tradition or ’-ism’, you will miss altogether what I am saying. The liberating truth is not static; it is alive. It cannot be put into concepts and be understood by the mind. The truth lies beyond all forms of conceptual fundamentalism. What you are is the beyond—awake and present, here and now already. I am simply helping you to realize that.”

A native of Northern California, Adyashanti lives with his wife Annie, and teaches extensively in the San Francisco Bay Area, offering weekend intensives and silent retreats. He also travels to teach in other areas of the United States and Canada, including Taos, Santa Fe, and Boulder.
“Adyashanti” means primordial peace.
