It's impossible to be mentally trapped, depressed or anxious after understanding his teachings.

Here's his 5-step approach to unlocking mental freedom: 🧵

[Tomas @evolvee33]

There is no “you” having anxiety or suffering. It’s an illusion. Let it go.

@misfitwriter_ I see it as a part of the whole thing,
the process.. its not "waste", its just like a movie somehow.. the heroes journey,
you do all these things and then find your way back.. funny yes.

unecessary, no

In the early 1980s, a 19-year-old bicycle racer in California read about enlightenment in a book and decided he was going to get it.

His name was Stephen Gray.

He had no guru and no monastery. He had the discipline of an athlete who was used to winning by training harder than everyone else.

What followed was six years of the most stubborn seeking you can imagine.

He built a small meditation hut in his parents’ backyard.

By day he worked in his father’s machine shop, and then he walked out to the hut and sat, two, three, sometimes four hours a day.

He found a Zen teacher, sat long silent retreats, and trained his mind the way he had trained his legs:

harder, longer, more.

Every hour on the cushion was another attempt to get somewhere, to break through, to finally arrive.

Then one day, sitting in that hut, he made a decision. Today he would break through.

Within seconds, the whole effort collapsed, and a thought came that he had never let himself think:

“I can’t do this.”

What came next was so intense he was sure he was going to die. Energy tore through his body, his heart raced, and instead of fighting it, he let it happen.

Then everything stopped. In his own words, there was just space.

He got up, bowed to the little Buddha statue in the hut, and burst out laughing.

For six years he had been chasing the Buddha. In that moment he saw that the Buddha he had been chasing was what he was.

Think about what that means.

The thing he had been trying to reach was the one doing the reaching. Every hour of effort had been the seeker looking for himself.

Today the world knows Stephen Gray as Adyashanti.

For almost thirty years he taught people all over the world, and he kept repeating the one thing most seekers don’t want to hear.

He put it in five words.

Enlightenment is a destructive process.

It has nothing to do with becoming better or happier, he said. It is the crumbling away of untruth.

Most of us are still sitting in the hut.

> Meditating to become calmer.
> Reading to become wiser.
> Doing the work to become a better version of ourselves.

Stephen Gray trained for six years to win enlightenment.

It came the moment he lost.

Not because effort is useless.

Because the one making the effort was the only thing standing in the way.

In 1909, on a beach in southern India, a man looked at a thin, quiet boy and announced he had found the next Messiah.

The man was Charles Leadbeater, a leader of the Theosophical Society, who claimed he could see auras.

The boy was the son of one of the Society’s employees.

Leadbeater said the boy’s aura held no trace of selfishness.

His name was Jiddu Krishnamurti.

What happened next was one of the strangest projects in spiritual history.

The Society’s president, Annie Besant, became his legal guardian. He was taken to England, educated, and trained for one purpose:

to become the vehicle for the coming World Teacher.

In 1911, they built an organisation around him, the Order of the Star in the East, with Krishnamurti at its head.

It grew into a global movement with more than 43,000 members. A Dutch baron gave him a castle with 5,000 acres of woodland. In 1927, Besant declared publicly that the World Teacher was here.

Thousands were waiting for him to speak as the Messiah.

On August 3, 1929, at a camp in Ommen in the Netherlands, he finally did.

In front of Annie Besant and about 3,000 members, he dissolved the entire order.

"Truth is a pathless land," he told them.

No religion, no sect, and no organisation could lead anyone to it. A belief could not be organised. He did not want followers.

He gave back the castle. He returned the money and the land.

People who had spent twenty years preparing to follow him were told there was nothing to follow.

Think about what that took.

He was 34. He had been handed everything a spiritual teacher could want:

devotees, wealth, land, a global platform, and a ready-made identity as the saviour of humanity.

And he walked away from the one thing almost nobody walks away from.

Being someone.

For the next 57 years, he travelled the world saying the same uncomfortable thing in a hundred different ways.

No authority can see the truth for you. Not a guru, not a method, not him.

You have to watch your own mind, the fear, the comparison, the endless striving to become something, until you see that the one watching is made of the same thing it’s watching.

He put it in four words.

The observer is the observed.

Most of us are still waiting for someone to arrive.

The right teacher.
The right method.
The day we’ll finally be ready.

In 1929, the World Teacher arrived.

And the first thing he did was send everyone home.

Not because there was nothing to find.

Because no one else could ever find it for you.

If you want to dramatically deepen your sense of inner peace, learn to return to the awareness behind your thoughts. Worries about the future, memories of the past, the constant need to control everything. Most of it is just the mind pulling you away from what you already are. Be still, recognize the awareness that is always here, and let everything else come and go.

The relationship is well documented, although the circumstances remain disputed. But Krishnamurti never claimed that truth depended on his personal perfection.

His entire message was to question authority, including his own. Whether he lived consistently with his teachings is a fair question. Whether that invalidates the teachings themselves is another.

Built this website for a local business this week.

Funny thing is, I've never been a web designer.

But I've learned something far more valuable than any technical skill: how to master my inner world.

How to find solutions when I don't have the answers. How to think beyond the obvious. How to overcome challenges without getting lost in them.

And most importantly, how to work with flow instead of force.

Once you understand the inner game of life, the outer challenges start looking very different.

You stop asking, "Can I do this?"

And start asking, "How can I make this happen?"

@kimindiehacker Made a video about it🤝

[Tomas @evolvee33]

If you want real freedom, stop trying to feel better and start getting better at feeling, letting every emotion that arises (fear, uncertainty, irritation) stay as long as it needs without a single thought trying to fix it. Whatever you fully allow is finally free to leave.

[Tomas @evolvee33]

@MrBrjan I never said you should ignore thoughts ..

[Tomas @evolvee33]

@batincaylak well said my friend
