Tami Simon speaks with Adyashanti, 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 "awakening to oneness" or what he calls awakening to "non-division." Sounds True has published many programs with Adya including Spontaneous Awakening, True Meditation, and The End of Your World. Adya discusses the way many contemporary non–dual teachers talk about how important it is to be "without position"—to not believe in the reality of any thought or belief or take a position on anything and how to make sense out of your thoughts.
