“The essence of you is everything you ever see, taste, touch, and experience. Everywhere you go, every step you take, every breath you take is actually happening by the essence, of the essence, in the essence, and to the essence. All the rest is noise and chatter.” Adyashanti

I read these words. Are they mere words? Do these words have any real truth to them? Not too long ago, they were just words for my mind to ponder. Now, when I read these words about essence, I can feel the truth of these words in every cell of my body. It’s not just in my mind for me to imagine and wonder how to make me feel this way.

This is how living the truth happens, living an awakened life. It is when there is a deep realization that the essence of life is living this life. There isn’t a “me” that is living a life.  This essence is everything and everywhere. It is the energy of life, the movement, the dance. Here I am (the essence) watching it all through these eyes.
