True Meditation
Discover the Freedom of Pure Awareness
Paperback Book - Preorder (Available August 12, 2025)
Practical instruction and three guided sessions in Adya’s unique approach to meditation.
Full Description
What would happen if you were to allow everything to be exactly as it is? If you gave up the need for control, and instead embraced the whole of your experience in each moment that arose? In the 14 years that he studied Zen, Adyashanti found that most seasoned meditators had used the practice as "an end instead of a means to an end." What he ultimately realized was that only when you let go of all techniques—even the concept of yourself as a meditator—will you open to the art of True Meditation, dwelling in the natural state. True Meditation invites you to join the growing number of seekers who have been touched by the wisdom of Adyashanti to learn:
- How to make the "effortless effort" that will vivify the present moment
- Meditative self-inquiry and "The Way of Subtraction": how to ask a spiritually powerful question—and determine the real answer
- Two guided meditations intended to reveal what Adyashanti calls "your home as awareness itself"
"We've been taught that awakening is difficult," explains Adyashanti, "that to wake up from the illusion of separation takes years. But all it really takes is a willingness to look into the depths of your experience here and now." True Meditation gives you the opportunity to reclaim the original purpose of meditation—as a gateway to "the objectless freedom of being."

Review for True Meditation
Wonderful! Adya teaches what other teachers might call "choiceless awareness" although he doesn't call it that, and I enjoy the encouragement. He emphasizes effortlessness over trying to attain something, which is something other teachers also teach, but Adya is extremely good at representing that attitude. My only wish is that he would explain more in detail what he means by certain phrases -- for example, what does "let everything be as it is" mean when applied to thoughts? -- I assume it means to be nonreactive, nonproliferative, non-decisive, etc., but I think I would feel more that I was on the right track if Adya would elucidate the possible pitfalls a little better -- still, he's my favorite teacher.

Review for True Meditation
As a long-time meditator, inquirer and reader of Eastern philosophy, I was surprised that this simple meditation program quickly leap-frogged me to some insights for which I'd been searching. Thank you for producing it---and for introducing me to it.
