Adya is taking a break until next year. This is an excerpt from a letter that he wrote: "The immensity of life moves on and continues to reveal the endless opportunities, and the necessity of loving and caring for one another in the myriad ways that life presents. It’s as if, in every moment, life is asking us, 'are you willing to be awake and present for this moment? And what are you going to value and uphold here and now?'  This is essentially our practice, to be conscious and awake moment to moment, and to embody the enlightened values of love, wisdom, and compassion to whatever degree we are capable and willing." "From this stillness arises the greatest activity, where body, mind and spirit express themselves not as fractured parts but as an embodied whole."
