We live in a world that values action, movement, and achievement—and often even our times of rest or vacation are overloaded with a long list of things to do. Many people begin spiritual practice with habits of high activity in place, and want to approach meditation from a goal-driven perspective. Adyashanti, the author of Falling into Grace and Spontaneous Awakening, believes that one of the best gifts we can give ourselves is the permission to simply be in silence—not striving, not doing, not even really meditating. In this video clip, he talks about how we can enter this natural and profoundly restorative state of being.
