Awakening the Spiritual Heart

According to spiritual teacher and author of Falling into Grace, Adyashanti, our heart is more than an emotive center; it is a perceptual center capable of seeing the unity of existence. Adyashanti refers to this part of our being as "the spiritual heart," and further, that we can train in practices that enable us to attune to the perceptual capacities of this subtle center. In this podcast, Adya (as his friends and students call him) teaches us two introductory practices for seeing with the spiritual heart. We also talked about: How our greatest challenges and greatest revelations always have to do with the heart The discovery of the strength and courage of the heart along with its vulnerability and tenderness Encountering the great unknown, and how to work skillfully with the fear that can sometimes accompany such an encounter The act of "self-giving" and the fulfillment that comes when we devote our lives to something bigger than ourselves. The practices that Adya shares in this podcast are profoundly simple and simultaneously profoundly powerful. They are a taste of The 30-Day Wake Up Challenge that Adya has created for the purpose of sharing with people the most effective and concise pointers he has developed over 20 years of teaching students to discover what he calls "the awakened view." The 30-Day Wake Up Challenge begins on August 15 and I hope you can join us. Our world could sure use more people who are dedicating themselves to awakening and perceiving with spiritual hearts wide open. With love on the journey, Tami P.S. I am personally excited to participate in The 30-Day Wake Up Challenge with Adyashanti that begins on August 15. Again, I hope you can join us. Click here to learn more.
