Spirituality is about waking up
“I discovered something
and it turned my life upside-down—
revolutionized my life.
This is what I’m going to share with you.”
The first thing to understand is the one thing all mystics are unanimous about: that all is well, all is well. Even if everything is a mess, all is well. Strange paradox, to be sure. But, tragically, most people never get to see that all is well. They never understand the loveliness and the beauty of this thing that we call human existence because they are asleep.

This Awareness Challenge
What you are aware of you control;
What you are unaware of controls You
Every two weeks, we present one idea from Anthony de Mello about a pattern that may be blocking you from waking up.
A simple awareness practice helps you understand the pattern and loosen its grip. For the next four days afterward, a new practice builds on the original idea, helping you uncover variations of the pattern.
Move at your own pace, share what you notice with others, and return for the next challenge.
The Issue Tony Addresses
Stop Fixing Yourself: You're Not Broken
People read books and consult gurus to discover what they must do to attain holiness or spirituality. They adopt methods, techniques and spiritual exercises. Yet, after years of striving, they find that they are still remain anxious, depressed, insecure, resentful and unhappy; and they blame themselves for not trying hard enough.
Suppose there is a way to end the conflict and confusion that come from constantly trying to fix yourself?
People ask me all the time, “What do I need to do to change myself?”
I’ve got a big surprise for you: You don’t have to do anything. In fact, the more you do, the worse it gets.
All you have to do is understand. If you understood, the conflict and confusion would simply drop.

Adyashanti
From 'The End of Your World: Uncensored Straight Talk on the Nature of Enlightenment'
“One of my favorite definitions of enlightenment comes from a Jesuit priest named Anthony de Mello, who passed away some years ago. Someone asked him to define his experience of enlightenment. He said, 'Enlightenment is absolute cooperation with the inevitable.' I love that, because it defines enlightenment not just as a realization, but as an activity. Enlightenment is when everything within us is in cooperation with the flow of life itself, with the inevitable.”
Eckhart Tolle
"Anthony DeMello is one of my favorite Enlightened Beings!"
Eckhart also placed Tony's book, Awareness, on his must read list.
