'There is something about you brither than the sun and more mysterious than the night sky.'

Who are you when you are not thinking yourself into existence? What is ultimately behind the set of eyes reading these words? In Emptiness Dancing, Adyashanti invites you to wake up to the essence of what you are, through the natural and spontaneous opening of mind, heart, and body that holds the secret to happiness and liberation.

From the first stages of realization to its revolutionary implications, Adyashanti shares a treasure trove of insights into the challenges of the inner life, offering lucid, down-to-earth advice on topics ranging from the ego, illusion, and 'spiritual addiction' to compassion, letting go, the eternal now, and more. Whether you read each chapter in succession or begin on any page you feel inspired to turn to, you will find in Adyashanti's wisdom an undrstanding and ever-ready guide to 'the full wonder of your infinite self-nature.'

Adyanshanti began teaching in 1996 after a series of transformative spiritual awakenings at the request of his Zen teacher with whom he had been studying for 14 years. Adya's teachings have been compared to some of the early Ch'an (Zen) masters of china as well as teachers of Advaita Vedanta in India. The author of The Impact of Awakening and My Secret Is Silence, he resides in Northern California.

There is a saying in Zen, 'when the realization is deep, your whole being is dancing.' For realization to be complete it has to hit on three levels-head, heart, and gut. You can have a very clear, enlightened mind, but your being won't be dancing. Then when the heart starts to open along with the mind, your being starts to dance. Then everything comes alive. And when your gut opens up, there is that deep, deep, unfathomable stability where that opening, who is you, just died into transparency. You are dancing-the emptiness is dancing.-Adyashanti
