I’ve heard a lot of buzz about spiritual awakening over the years, and the reason I made the above video is that someone asked me how long it took for me to awaken. Just as we have the whole ascension process, which involves shifts and upgrades in energy, the spiritual awakening process is definitely a “THING” that happens…but it doesn’t necessarily coincide with a linear timeframe. In fact, if you look at life as a study in evolution, a spiritual awakening can take a lifetime to happen…in layers and layers…and that’s a good thing!
The spiritual awakening process starts with a change, or a feeling, or the sense of being drawn to a particular practice. For some people, a mastery over a practice, or an intentional shift to a higher vibration, is just the starting point to a path that leads to even deeper understandings and awakenings at different levels. It’s not a one-size-fits-all approach, nor does it mean that once you’ve started on the path of spiritual awakening that you have figured it all out. Even the most celebrated and worshipped spiritual teachers have not figured it all out…and I digress into a little speech about that in the video above.
Because we are all unique and different, awakenings happen in different ways for different people. Some find a surge of information and energy so powerful that they can’t ignore it….and it propels them into an entirely new direction in their life. It’s like – BAM! WAKE UP!!! For others, it’s a gentle, slow process that eventually heals limiting beliefs and/or painful emotional wounds, and changes the person on a very powerful and sometimes subtle level.
For some, a spiritual awakening encourages (or forces) dramatic changes that aren’t easy. For others, spiritual awakening is gentle, healing, and therapeutic. However, my whole point in talking about this is from the framework of timing, and the amount of time it takes to awaken. And to that end, I’ll reiterate – it can take a lifetime if you’re dedicated to going with the flow. There is so much to learn, know, and understand not only about ourselves and our relationships, but also about the worlds we live in – both seen and unseen. In fact, forget taking ONE lifetime…the true process can take many, many lifetimes, until we complete the cycle of samsara and go wherever we’re meant to go after that, or melt into the great one-ness. 🙂
It’s at times both simple and yet incredibly complex!!! The most important thing to remember, though, is that it’s doesn’t have to be serious or hard. Spiritual awakening essentially leads you into unconditional love and bliss, so why not set the intention to let the energy of that flow while you are unfolding and awakening? You can! And it will make the process…dare I say…FUN!!!
