WHAT IS THE AWAKENING PROCESS?
The process of awakening is a phrase or
term that is used in the field of spirituality or metaphysics that refers to
“waking up in awareness and understanding” of your spiritual essence or your
eternal true self, that which you are in pure consciousness and how it relates
to your physical incarnation in a human body. It is an individual process of
healing and letting go of fear and illusions that culminates in an expansion of
love and growth in consciousness.
The awakening process is about
uncovering what already exists within your consciousness. It’s the study of
consciousness, how it’s related to your body, mind, emotions, and soul, and then
applying this knowledge to your everyday life to create for yourself and others
a Heaven on Earth. At the highest level, it’s possible to merge your personal
consciousness with the universal consciousness of All That Is that exists in all
things. At this level, you become a Christ-like being and live and act from a
focus known as Christ Consciousness (Master Jesus displayed this level of
consciousness on Earth). The awakening process doesn’t stop there. Higher levels
of consciousness exist, to be sure, but this goes beyond the scope of our
discussion.
HOW DO YOU KNOW IF YOU ARE GETTING CLOSE TO
AWAKENING?
Awakening is a process that never ends because the Source of
Life is eternal, and the real you, your spiritual essence, is the image and
likeness of the Source of Life. So, try to get used to the fact that there is no
end to the process of awakening. You are eternal consciousness and sometimes you
incarnate into a physical body because it’s your freewill choice to experience
the play of consciousness on Earth. For you are Spirit in physical form. When
you are in-between physical incarnations, you go back to your spirit form in
consciousness, and there you continue your awakening process.
At some
degree, you are already awake. Everybody is, whether they believe it or not. All
of us have an awareness and our own understanding of our spiritual essence or
eternal true self because we all have consciousness. And, all of us are aware of
our consciousness. Some of us might not pay much attention to the health of our
consciousness, and some of us don’t have a clue about the connection between our
consciousness and Source of Life, some don’t care about the answers to these
types of questions, and some of us don’t want to change or don’t understand why
it’s in their best interests to change for the better. And, that’s OK. Love
allows everybody to be where they want to be, and doesn’t feel threatened by
it.
How do you know if you are getting close? I believe it’s best to
re-phrase the question to: How do I know if I’m waking up in my spiritual
consciousness? You can measure your awakening by asking yourself these
questions, and being brutally honest with yourself, for if you fudge on the
answers, you are only hurting yourself.
--- Am I more loving and
truthful today than yesterday with myself and others?
--- Am I changing for
the better?
--- Am I more positive in my thinking today than yesterday?
--- Am I sharing my love with others?
--- Am I more peaceful and joyful
with myself and others today than yesterday?
--- Am I less judgmental or
critical with myself and others today than yesterday?
--- Am I mastering my
emotions by healing my fear-based beliefs and healing the intellect of illusions
not in alignment with the truth within me?
--- Do I forgive and forget
easily?
--- Do I see and feel the divine presence of the Source of Life in
others as I see and feel it in myself?
Nobody can answer these questions
for you because it’s your responsibility because it’s your life. If you can
answer “YES” to all these questions, then you will progress rapidly in your
awakening process. But, wherever you answer no, there is something to look at
closely, to heal and allow love to replace the void that fear leaves. The
awakening process will lead you to the heart of the Source of Life, and within
its heart you will find unconditional love.
WHAT IS THE EASIEST AND BEST
WAY TO ACHIEVE AWAKENING?
Learn to live the path of love to its
fullest.
Only you can decide what this means for you. If you are looking
for an easy formula or an authority figure to tell you how to live your life,
then you will become a dependent person. But, if you want to wake up to a
greater and greater degree to the radiant, powerful, sovereign being that you
are, then you will have to do the journey on the path of love. Here are some
general guidelines I recommend for you to incorporate into your
life.
START WHERE YOU ARE.
Take a blank piece of paper, or
compose this on your word processing program. At the top of the paper write
“Awakening Analysis.” Then, fold the paper into three columns. Draw a line down
the folds of the paper. In the left column, write the words: My Concept of My
Real Identity. Then describe your concept. Be clear, concise, and state your
truth. Don’t show it to anybody. It will become the beginnings of your daily
journal. If you haven’t explored the advantages of journaling for personal
growth and spiritual freedom, then I suggest you look into buying a book on the
subject that resonates with you.
In the right column, write the words: My
Awakening Goal. Then describe what your awakening goal looks like to you, how
far you want to go with your awakening process in this lifetime.
In the
middle column, write the words: My Path of Awakening. Then describe what you
believe you must do to awaken yourself, the path you believe you must walk that
will give you greater personal growth and bring you to an understanding of
living in the Light. Write down all the things you believe you need to do to
achieve this goal. There are no wrong answers. And, the list you write now may
change over time. Everything you think, do and say will contribute to your path
of awakening.
Remember! The awakening process is about uncovering what
already exists within you. Since your essence is love, the better you can live
the path of love, the more awake you will become. This is not to say that you
won’t experience challenges along the way. They will be there, and they are part
of your awakening process of waking up to the love essence that you are.
DAILY SPIRITUAL PRACTICES
To discover the heart of the Source
of Life or Universal Consciousness within you, all you have to do is to uncover
what’s already inside you. What is inside your consciousness, inside your ego,
inside your heart, inside your lifeforce energy system, inside your mind, inside
your thoughts? Once you find out what’s inside you, then move on and discover,
how to work with it to bring you joy, bliss, prosperity, abundance for yourself
and others in the world.
AWAKENING TO THE HEART
Awakening to
Divine Love or Universal Consciousness within you can be summed up in these
brief guidelines:
Develop a passion for your own awakening. Keep the fire
going. Awakening from the dream of forgetfulness to Oneness is a very real
possibility within the span of a single lifetime. The Source of Life has
disguised itself in its own creation, and cannot avoid responding to the sincere
call of a devoted truth seeker.
To deepen your spiritual life, to go
beyond the limits of mind and ego, commit to living a love-based lifestyle in
thought, word and deed. Withdraw your attention on the way you view other
people: dirty, mean, greedy, selfish. Their behavior is of no concern to you.
Instead, re-focus the searchlight of your perception into your own thoughts,
words, and deeds. Clean up your act! It is love that attracts the divine
response of the Source of Life because your essence is Love. And, be open to
accepting the miracles that will come into your life as a result of choosing a
love-based lifestyle.
Transformation of consciousness is a process of
healing the mind of illusions, and healing the emotions of fear, whereby the
truths of Divine Love that already exist within you become revealed in pristine
clarity. It can be likened to cleaning the dirt away from a diamond to reveal
its purity and brilliance.
The secret to finding and knowing the
Indwelling Spirit of Love (which is your true
Self) is learning to live a
love-based lifestyle in thought, word and deed. Love has a magical
way of
transcending and healing all things that are out of alignment with it, and
returning it
to Love. It positively affects consciousness in people, places
and things.
Everything in life is designed for your awakening and
spiritual growth. It is vitally important for us to raise our awareness (energy
vibration) to the heart lifeforce energy center and beyond. We can achieve this
by living a love-based lifestyle, and practicing the qualities of the
heart.
Love is the attracting quality because love is your essence, and
it is the foundation upon which the universe is built. The more you give
yourself permission to live a lifestyle of Love, the more you will deepen your
spiritual life, and the more your life will turn into the miracle that it
is.
DAILY MEDITATION, PRAYER AND GRATITUDE
MEDITATION is the
highest priority of the day. I can’t emphasize this enough. It is the primary
tool for Self-discovery and expansion of consciousness. Try to meditate
30-minutes twice a day, morning and evening. There are many ways to meditate. If
you desire to uncover the truth of what’s already within you, to feel love and
bliss in your life, and attract the experience of Oneness, you’ll want to use a
method to interiorize the mind. Use the meditation technique in my eBook
(Google: The Sinless Reality), or find a meditation technique that works for
you.
PRAYER – in the language of your heart, pray to the divine Source
of Life within you. Pray for your enlightenment, and the enlightenment of
humanity. Ask it to awaken you, to reveal your true nature to you, to experience
yourself as radiant light and boundless love, and to lead you to all the answers
to all the questions you have about awakening and the nature of your true self.
GRATITUDE – be grateful for all the blessings and gifts you have
received, as the source of your abundance and prosperity is Love itself. And, be
grateful for all the blessings and gifts that have not manifested yet in your
life because they are already created in consciousness. Gratitude is your
acknowledgement that Love itself is the source of your eternal being and all
supply.
THE POWER OF VISIONING – The mind’s eye is the vision center
within the human being. Here you can visualize your dreams, and infuse
passionate intention into them, and allow them to manifest in your life as
reality. The power of visioning will help you manifest everything you
want.
DISCOVER & ACHIEVE YOUR LIFE PLAN – You came to Earth to
fulfill an important purpose – your life plan. You planned a full life of
learning lessons or experiences to gain knowledge of the experiences you chose
in human form. This is a custom-made plan that was designed by you, before your
birth, for you, and only you can achieve it. Achieving your plan gives your life
purpose and meaning and motivation, and lets you feel alive. It is possible to
know the details of your plan through quiet reflection and observing yourself.
LIGHT-HEARTEDNESS is your natural state of being. It is the joy of
Divine Love within each of us. Humor is a very important part of growing into
Divine Consciousness. Don't take life so seriously. Life is not meant to be all
work and no fun or play. Laugh a lot! Especially when there’s no reason.
Meditation and practicing your spiritual principles will develop joy in you, and
ultimately will establish you in joy and bliss from which you will not slip out
of.
THE DIVINE PRESENCE - The secret to getting the Divine’s attention
is developing a powerful love-call to attract the Divine response in your life.
Sweet talk the Divine like you would a lover. Tell the Divine how much you want
to know it in the experience of Oneness. Ask the Divine to reveal itself to you.
Pray deeply and sincerely.
SHARING, GIVING AND RECEIVING - It is a great
joy for Divine Love to share itself because its intrinsic nature is limitless
abundance and prosperity. Hence, the reason we feel joyful in sharing our love
with others. Scarcity or “lack” does not exist in the mind of Divine Love or in
its kingdom. It knows itself only as limitless supply of abundance and
prosperity.
FORGIVENESS is the sweetness that lets human relationships
run smoothly, and allows Divine Love to heal the hurt. When you forgive someone,
you are already forgiven. Learn to forgive, yourself and others, no matter how
much pain it costs you.
HEALING the mind and emotions of fear-based
thoughts and beliefs will empower you. As you learn to master your mind and
emotions, you will awaken more and more, and draw closer to your true identity
(true self), and eventually experience the Light within.
TRANSFORMATION
of consciousness is the inevitable result of healing from fear to love, healing
from illusion to truth, healing from the belief that you are separate from Love
to the Oneness of Love.
Keep your body healthy. Eat nutritious foods.
Maintain a wholesome attitude towards your body, but don't be vain about it.
Exercise your body vigorously, on a regular basis. It keeps the body limber for
meditation. The energies in the Lifeforce system can flow easier, helping to
keep your body healthy.
Conserve your sexual energy. It can be used as a
valuable partner in the awakening process. Learn to transmute its powerful
energy into constructive pursuits such as creativity, deeper meditation, or
strenuous physical activity.
Let go chaos and drama in your own life.
Don't buy into the world’s fears and illusions.
Avoid the tendency to
gossip or criticize others. Focus on your own awakening.
Watch your
thoughts. Master your emotions.
Empower yourself! Cultivate heart
qualities: in addition to the ones already cited, patience, insight, tolerance,
non-judgment, non-attachment, honesty, integrity, joy, peace, calmness,
helpfulness, sharing, stillness of your racing thoughts, a reverence for all
life, etc.
ENLIGHTENMENT
On the path of awakening, there is a
breakthrough event known as an experience of enlightenment or Oneness. In
Christianity, it’s called Mystical Union with God. This is when a person
experiences his or her spiritual essence. Because each person is unique in the
awakening process, this breakthrough experience can take many forms. The
experience of enlightenment is when it happens, but it’s all part of the process
of awakening. There are many schools of spiritual thought that seek to offer
methods and exercises to awaken a person to this sublime experience because
enlightenment reveals the essence of your life and takes a person beyond this
physical world that many of us believe is the only reality in life. When
enlightenment happens for you, you awaken to a greater loving reality within
yourself than you knew existed before. The desire to understand your
enlightenment then becomes the path of your continued awakening
process.
If one does not experience enlightenment in one’s lifetime, it
does not mean that he or she is not on the path of awakening, or that one’s life
is unworthy or meaningless. Every person on Earth is on the path of awakening,
whether they believe or not – because life is more than we have been taught. The
primary goal for each lifetime is to achieve the greatest amount of awakening
possible so that the individual can grow in spiritual awareness and draw closer
to the Source of Life (or as some would call it “God”). Each lifetime for all of
us is profoundly important.
THE GREAT SHIFT 2012
I would like to
introduce you something that more and more people are becoming conscious of. If
you are not familiar with what’s known generally as The Great Shift in
Consciousness 2012 (it’s called by other names too), then I suggest you become
familiar with it, because this is the direction our world is headed.
The
Great Shift 2012 is the most amazing, most evolutionary event in human history.
It coincides with the end of the Mayan calendar, December 21, 2012. Mother Earth
has made the decision to return to full consciousness in the fifth dimension,
and those of humanity that want to go with her are being asked to raise their
vibration. Hence, the importance of meditation and practicing spiritual
principles cannot be underestimated at this time. Everybody is going through a
metamorphous, new chakras are emerging into our lifeforce energy systems, the
human body is gaining DNA strands to withstand fourth and fifth dimensional
life, and the whole human system is transitioning into a lightbody. If you are
not familiar with this event, I suggest you become very familiar with it if you
want to transition with Mother Earth.
