In This Interview, Adyashanti and I Discuss…

• His book, The Most Important Thing: Discovering Truth at the Heart of Life
• Attention and Intention
• The inquiry at any given time: Where are we giving our attention to?
• Considering the question: What is worthwhile orienting your life around?
• The limitations that come with aging 
• How the definition of happiness changes as we age
• Wholeness of being
• Life as it is rather than the image of life
• Two interpretations of the fact that sometimes those who are the most unhappy tend to be seeking happiness the most
• Shooting for meaning rather than happiness
• How meaning is an experience of being
• The inquiry: What am I in service to?
• That we don’t seem to do well as human beings when we live exclusively for ourselves
• What does it mean to really serve what you realize (rather than trying to realize more and more)
• The mistaken thinking that an act of service must be grand in scale or scope or must be visible to really count or matter
• How it’s easy to be noble when you are noticed but in most of our lives that’s not what’s taking place
• That giving time and attention when someone needs it can make for transformative moments
• Seeing the importance of the things you do in your life now that are in service
• That you can’t make yourself awaken but what you do DOES have an impact – it’s just indirect
• The yearning itself comes from the very thing we’re yearning for (in terms of awakening)

• Years of therapy and healing helped find that place of light inside herself.
• The importance of facing and talking about your trauma helps to release the pain instead of holding on to it.  
• When you’re young, you believe that what happens around you is your fault and therefore often make the same mistakes because you don’t know how to rationalize what is happening.   
• Her experience of becoming a wounded healer and how she started healing and forgiving herself when she went to prison.  
• Becoming an advocate for the sick women in prison after losing a close friend and realizing she could no longer stand by or stay silent when something bad happened to others.
• How she helped bring counseling, educational and other care programs into the prison system.
• Saying goodbye to the little girl inside who was silent and embracing the little girl inside who found her voice
• How we are not the worst moment in our lives, we’re not our mistakes
• Being part of the newly passed Domestic Violence Survivors Justice Act (DVSJA) which considers alternative sentencing or intervention for those convicted who have been victims of severe abuse.
• When a body is put under pressure, it’s going to react and do whatever it takes to survive
• Her source of unconditional love and truth, Sister Mary, who helped her to become the activist she is today.
• How “we can connect deeply with humanity if we look through the eyes of love and compassion”
• We were created in love and beauty is all around us if we can just recognize it.
