The 30-Day Wake Up Challenge

A Direct Way to Spiritual Liberation

By: Adyashanti

Narrated by: Adyashanti

Length: 5 hrs and 44 mins

Publisher's Summary

Explore the many dimensions of awakened consciousness under the guidance of respected spiritual teacher Adyashanti.

What does “awakening” mean to you? Perhaps it's about disconnecting from day-to-day concerns and living apart from the stresses of the world. Maybe you think awakening is about achieving an expanded, intuitive awareness of unseen realities. Or maybe it involves transcending suffering and never experiencing anything painful ever again.

For Adyashanti, “Awakening has everything to do with identity - with dislodging misplaced identity and letting your true identity arise on its own.” It's about understanding how you are connected with the rest of existence.

Adya (as his students call him) has been teaching about awakening for more than 20 years, and has seen that no two people experience it the same way. However, there are many practices that will help you onto the path. In The 30-Day Wake Up Challenge, this renowned spiritual explorer presents a new, in-depth course that collects these practices in a month-long journey.

Over the course of 30 days, you will investigate: 

• How to establish anchors from which you can explore the distinct but interconnected dimensions of awakening
• Insights on awakening and unity from the world’s great spiritual traditions
• Awareness of the pure consciousness underlying all of your experiences
• The innate connection and compassion of the Spiritual Heart
• Realizing the infinite potential of the fundamental ground of Being
• Practices for embodying the wisdom and insight of awakened awareness in your daily life

With The 30-Day Wake Up Challenge, you will learn that when you wake up from the dream of your assumptions, you will discover who you really are - an entire universe of insight, joy, and boundless love.

Deceptively simple, profoundly effective!

I really benefited from this program. Each day's meditation is short and simple but I found them to be deeply meaningful in ways I did not expect. Now that I've gone through the 30 days, the first thing I want to do is go back and do it again! I highly recommend this book to everyone, whether this is the first time you have ever meditated or you are super advanced. Everyone can benefit from Adyashanti's loving, kind energy and profound insights.

Kind Gentle Way- Clear and Obtainable

For many of us, we have a glimpses or a sense there is a stable core inside of us, but our live’s resemble scattered fragments of our being splattered across our world. It is hard to not get caught up in clichés like, "no pain; no gain." Achieve! Accomplish! Attain! Please! Serve!
And when you achieve the goal, there is a momentary sense of accomplishment that is quickly brushed away. Then on to the next pursuit. Something is missing.

Perhaps there is some truth in this cliché, “no pain; no gain.” Pain motivated me to try this practice. This unease about how I am living doesn't have anything to do with what I am doing, it has to do with… who is the doer, and why the doing.

After this practice, I feel like I have gathered up these scattered fragments of myself and placed them in my heart.

The experiential practices provided by Adyashanti are simple, short and subtle. When I started this program, I thought I was looking for something different. Now, I am clear I wanted to “be” different in my life. This is obtainable. I am changing, and in a kind way versus a painful demanding way. Thank you.

Outstanding support on the spiritual journey

I love Adya so much, and have always wanted some way to have him with me every day.
I started this 30 Day challenge on 1/1/2020, and just finishing today.
I plan to keep cycling through the 30 days with him all year.

A beacon for us weary travelers

These teachings are a lighthouse during these dark and stormy times. If everyone put just one of these daily lessons into practice, the world would be wonderfully transformed.

Loved it

Listening to Adya everyday really helped me get started on a path to meditating more and helped me be more compassionate towards the people in my life by helping me have intuition & wisdom, and to have empathy that extends beyond my narrative. Thank you Adya!!

A favorite for sure

Some of the teachings may seem abstract, depending on your previous experience, and some are very practical, but all of them are simply expressed and to the point. I'm sure I will be cycling through these reminders many times over :-).

Beautiful and Immense

If you are truly (truly!) ready to start realizing who you truly are, then this 30 Day Challenge, if engaged with the right level of devotion, it will facilitate and guide you to true, amazing moments of Grace. I have a great interest in Awakening, from being an avid Buddhist practitioner to engaging with Sacred Medicine to have experiences of Unity and Oneness. And I have these experiences, though the experience is not the objective. Waking up is the objective. And Adyashanti clearly has only one pure objective through this work - to be a guide for other Souls having a human experience, that are ready to sincerely return to their source.

I have been close to tears more than once in the first two weeks. I cannot wait for whats to come.

A proufound journey narrated by the best teacher

I find Adya’s teachings crystal clear, and that is not the case with others in the Zen or Buddhist genre of teachings. Not to disparage others. But when you “meet” your teacher, you recognize him or her, you get the messages as if they are being whispered in your ear. I will treasure this 30 day challenge. Just finished today and I’ll start it all over again, that’s the value of what I got out of it.

great book

Amazing insight into human true being and existing, helped me a great deal to realize the reality inside of us and out

The Felt Sense of Awareness :)

Is "I" & "My" Awareness? Maybe... After all... Awareness is aware of Awareness. But, considering "I" & "My" Can Come & Go & Awareness Always Remains.... Well... You get the picture... Awareness Always Remains. And in fact, Awareness is Here Now ............................................................................................. Pure Awareness is chill Yes? Check it out :)

The profound made experienceable!

Found this really helpful - fair to say I'm not there yet, but there has been a real shift with these practices.

great teachings ,

wonderful instructions easy to follow inspirational to practice.
would strongly recommend to any serious seeker

Beautiful guidance

Beautiful Guidance for everyone looking for true. Transforming, encouraging, meaningful. Adia's kindness wisdom and experience is felt in every word. Thank you.

what a refreshing take on the Buddhist path!

After more than a decade with Buddhism, Adyashanti managed to catch me by surprise every few days, with a new perspective or twist on spiritual life. This month of "effortless mindfulness" brought many glimpses of new ways of being.
Thank you Adyashanti!
May we all appreciate the lush nature of reality and consciousness.

Powerful Pointers from a Kind Master

As always, Adya draws from a lifetime of spiritual knowledge and experience to cut through the nonsense and point directly to the unfathomable. Although direct, Adya speaks kindly and lovingly whilst gently encouraging you along.

This is an excellent combination of bitesize pointers on self-inquiry that can lead to deep insights into who you are. Disarmingly simple, these are extremely effective teachings that I would encourage anyone to experience.

Although I have listened to this once, as Adya says, these are teachings that need more than 30 days to be embodied - they require a lifetime. I intend to immediately restart this programme to keep myself on track.

Brilliant

I have enjoyed this very detailed explanation/pointing, on how to wake up. It will be helpful to revisit, time and time again. I also found the pdf printout a useful guide to keep me on track.

Thank you for shining your light into my heart dear Adya. All blessings to you.

Love it!

Thank you Adya! I truly appreciate this audiobook, so much that I’m going to do the challenge again.

Very enjoyable 30 days

I enjoyed the 30 day Wake up challenge immensely and how it explored the aspects of being in a practical and grounded way. I would recommend anyone to have a go!

Enriching

The program needs commitment and self discipline to practice the exercises in raising self awareness

EXPERIENCE YOUR TRUE BEING

Truly life changing!!! every last word is so beautifully chosen. This book introduced me to my SELF. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Thank you Adya x
