What is Spiritual Awakening?
Here’s an answer for your consideration.
The word “spiritual” refers to that which inspires life.
And the ancient root of the word “awakening” means “to arise into existence.”
So, quite simply:
Spiritual Awakening is life arising into existence.
Spiritual Awakening is not a rare occurrence that only happens to special people in special circumstances. It is not a one off event that confers some unique status, setting you apart from all those unawakened folk. And, it is not a commodity that you can buy, learn, earn, or that some outer force can grant you.
Spiritual Awakening is your natural state of being. You literally are spirit (the force of life) awakening (arising into existence) in every moment, always.
The inner spirit is arising and expressing itself through every aspect of your life right now. There is no endpoint to this creative play. It doesn’t stop and it doesn’t start. You are Spiritual Awakening 24/7.
The only reason you may think that this is not the case is because of some confusion you picked up that told you spiritual awakening looked like something other than your moment-to-moment existence. There is a lot of confusion about this in spiritual circles, as well as in the general public messaging. And it causes so much unnecessary suffering. But you don’t have to perpetuate that.
If you are interested in directly experiencing Spiritual Awakening, then play with choosing the view that Spiritual Awakening is not something that can happen to you or even through you… Spiritual Awakening is you.
Speak this truth to yourself and see what happens:
“I am spirit awakening right now.”
This is not intended as an affirmation or an exercise in positive thinking.
As you offer yourself this nourishing thought form, there’s no requirement at all to make yourself believe it. You don’t have to agree with it or feel a special way about it. There is no self manipulation involved here.
Because this statement is true, it is naturally healing, no matter what you think about it in the moment.
So, I invite you to notice something more powerful than what the mind thinks about this truth. And that is the direct experience of connecting with the truth itself. Speak it a few more times, or as much as you would like. As you infuse this truth through your being, notice how it is affecting you. Your energy will intuitively harmonize itself with this truth, in a way that is just right for you. Please, let the nourishing force of this truth be released within you.
“I am spirit awakening right now.”
You are free to choose this view and inhabit it anytime.
As you relax into the groove of Being Spiritual Awakening, rather than seeking spiritual awakening, you will begin to experience EVERYTHING as sacred. And it becomes so much easier to enjoy the unfolding miracle of your life.
