Here we will like to talk about the various aspects of spiritual awakening and
about the process of self growth which if conducted properly will lead to this final stage of
spiritual development called awakening. Along the way we will learn the definitions as well as
how to approach this complex
area of spiritual growth, knowing that our ultimate aim is to awake, or in the spiritual
terminology,
to achieve enlightenment.
Our origins and spiritual obstacles
Every spiritual seeker knows that we are created out of life and light and by the power of Divine love.
This is also how our Star, our Sun, and through it, our planet Earth are created. We are children of the One God,
and deep in our hearts we possess the essence, the Divine spark, that which
we really are. What is needed is only to awaken to the infinite possibilities of our True Self, but this is in no way
a simple process.
The reason why this is no easy road is because in the course of time we have accumulated various imperfections in lower four
of our seven bodies and the
Divine light has become surreal, deeply buried, and forgotten. These impurities have put a barrier on our path of
enlightenment, and still stand there
between us and the Light. The veil of obliviousness about our One Primal Cause has now become the ultimate secret of
our existence.
Longing for spiritual awakening
We, as humans, in our imaginary reality participate in what can be depicted as the battle between good and evil.
Our soul, separated from the Origin and
tormented daily by a lot of ambiguities and misconceptions, becomes a battlefield. Numerous
spiritual seekers conceive different theories, but what is more important is how to approach our spiritual practice
which is the only tool which will lead one day to our final spiritual ascension.
A long time ago we set off guided by the Sun Ray of Shambala to explore the inner paths of heart, seeking and
longing for God and for the strength
of Divine love in us. We believed in it with all our being. We did all this in our endeavor to be what we really
are, longing to become Love in every word, movement, feeling, thought, and deed, to be a manifestation of pure
Divine love, to be at one with God, to become Christ in us.
The Key to Spiritual awakening
The key is to have a strong desire for enlightenment, that is, to become conscious of God in us, and us in God,
since God is everything. This brings along an increased responsibility. The realized responsibility will
enable us to get to know ourselves, to
forgive others and ourselves, to improve and learn to love ourselves, and finally to attain
control over our own thoughts, feelings, and actions. This will result in an increased self-esteem,
self-love, as well as love toward the Truth and Divine laws. Furthermore, the veil of illusion will fall,
and since we have been made in the likeness of God, we will be able to see God's Glory.
In the additional lessons that belong to this section of the website we will go step by step through all
the necessary prerequisites and/or stages of spiritual self growth --- a process
that will bring us closer to the final awakening.

Hi Mike
Yes, you may say so. The time we are currently living in reflects the change of the astrological age of Pisces into the
astrological age of Aquarius. In a sense, we already see the dawning of the age of Aquarius, although it is hard to locate this transition in time exactly. It is more precisely to say that this shift happens during a long period of time, say something like hundreds of years.
In any case, Aquarius, as a sign of progress and new ideas, brings up plenty of new energies. These energies help awaken our interest in spirituality, self-realization, personal transformation and greater freedom on a scale never seen before.
