The Truth of What We Are

Adi Da summarized his gift of Truth in a single sentence.

He wished to give this gift to every human being, so that knowledge of this Truth could be the foundation of every human life.

He even wished that all children could hear this Truth from their youngest days, so that their lives could be guided by it from the beginning.

He says that this Truth is the case "no matter what arises".

In other words, this is the Truth regardless of what the body is experiencing, regardless of what emotions may be coming up, regardless of what thoughts we may be having, and regardless of what appears to be happening in the world.

And he also says that this Truth is the case even if there are no bodily sensations or emotions or thoughts happening in the moment.

This Truth, he says, is "always already the case".

To communicate this Truth most fully, he states it in two different forms.

No matter what arises, or does not arise,
you are only Consciousness Itself.

No matter what arises, or does not arise,
there is only Consciousness Itself.
