“Awakening is not a state but a process: an ethical way of life and commitment that enables human flourishing. As such, it is no longer the exclusive preserve of enlightened teachers or accomplished yogis. Likewise, nirvana-the stopping of craving-is not the goal of the path but its very source. For human flourishing first stirs in that clear, bright, empty space where neurotic self-centredness realizes that it has no ground at all to stand on. One is then freed to pour forth like sunlight.” WayFirstsHumansSelfStatesProcessGoalRealizingSpacePathClearTeacherSourceCommitmentEmptyAwakeningPreservesAccomplishedEnlightenedEthicalSunlightStoppingCravingExclusiveNeuroticFlourishingEmpty SpaceYogi Author:Stephen Batchelor

“Once the awakening happens, with it comes the realization that suffering is unnecessary now. You have reached the end of suffering because you have transcended the world. It is the place that is free of suffering. This seems to be everybody's path. Perhaps it is not everybody's path in this lifetime, but it seems to be a universal path. Even without a spiritual teaching or a spiritual teacher, I believe that everybody would get there eventually. But that could take time.” WorldBelieveEndsSeemsHappensSpiritualSufferingI BelievePathTeacherTeachingUniversalLifetimeAwakeningRealizationTake TimeUnnecessarySpiritual TeachersSpiritual Teaching Author:Eckhart Tolle
