Sounds True.com, many voices, one journey. You're listening to Insights at the edge. Today my guest is Adyashanti. Adyashanti is a

spiritual teacher trained in the Zen tradition who lives in Northern California. Adya, as he is called by friends and students,

is often described as a non-dual teacher,

someone who teaches about what he calls

awakening to non-division.

With sounds true, Adia has published a new book and audio program entitled,

Resorrecting Jesus, Embodying the Spirit of a Revolutionary Mystic

in which Agia explores the deep mythic underpinnings of the Gospels to show how we can find the story of Jesus a source of

inspiration for our own spiritual unfolding. In this episode of

Insights at the Edge, Adje and I spoke about his experience of Jesus' story as a map of awakening.

We also talked about Jesus as a revolutionary figure and the nature of suffering.

We also talked about Agio's own experience with excruciating physical pain and how that experience relates to the metaphor of the

crucifixion and finally we talked about the redemptive quality of love and how love can restore us to our natural state of

worth.

Here's my conversation with Adjia shante. Adia, what's a Zen guy like you,

writing, teaching, talking about Jesus.
