Awakening will not give you a pass on the challenges of life, but it can give you a pass on not driving yourself nuts with the challenges.
– Adyashanti in Clear Sky Consciousness
This is a response to one of the may myths of awakening. “Awakening will make our problems go away.” It doesn’t at all, but – to the extent the awakening is embodied, and to the extent we are committed to waking up whatever issues surface in us, it can make things a little easier.
