Adyashanti: Complete Interview
Spiritual teacher Adyashanti describes how in the development of human consciousness, there comes a shift from a sense of a separate self toward the experience of unity. He points out that the fear of losing our individual identity keeps us from making this shift, and by confronting our fear we come into love. Adyashanti also suggests that reaching a point of crisis can allow an opportunity for consciousness to shift, individually and collectively.
Adyashanti began teaching in 1996 at the request of his Zen teacher, with whom he had been studying for fourteen years. The author of Emptiness Dancing, The Impact of Awakening, and My Secret is Silence, Adyashanti offers spontaneous and direct nondual teachings that have been compared to those of the early Zen masters and Advaita Vedanta sages.

feeling like consciousness is contagios, wouldnt that be wonderfull, if everybody cought the bug
Very interesting point of view, mundane activities have blunted our senses and made most of us indifferent to the reality of our existence . This is an excellent dissection of fear and how it affects our consciousness and how we react to ourselves and the world around us.
