The end of your world

Uncensored Straight Talk on the Nature of Enlightenment
Book • 2008
In 'The End of Your World', Adyashanti explores the 'I got it/I lost it' phenomenon, where individuals experience fluctuations between 'nonabiding' awakening and the ultimate state of 'abiding' enlightenment.

He discusses various pitfalls, such as the trap of meaninglessness, the ego's co-opting of realization, the illusion of superiority, and the danger of becoming 'drunk on emptiness'.

The book offers practical advice and honest insights into maintaining an awakened state and navigating the complexities of spiritual life in a practical, everyday context.
