Part 5 of 6: Spiritual Awakening
Because there are so many different types of spiritual awakenings, your path to it might not look exactly like what someone else experiences. But the key is to go with what works for you and remain true to yourself.
You can’t force a spiritual awakening. It’s something that comes to you. However, the Universe, Higher Self, Source Energy is aware of those who are seeking a connection. The key of the matter actually resides within your heart.
If your desire and purpose for wanting an awakening is so that you can be a better person and make the world around you a better place, you’re more likely to have an awakening than someone who is looking for enlightenment for selfish reasons.
To get ready for an awakening, you need to look inside yourself. An awakening can’t happen if you have a lot of emotional clutter and things that you’re holding onto.
A vessel that’s already full has no room for anything more. So before you can have a spiritual awakening, get rid of your emotional clutter. How you do that is going to be based on what methods you use.
Some people will go see a therapist to talk through old wounds that have lingered and have created a well of negative feelings such as bitterness. You can’t be open to new things when there’s a whole lot of old junk hanging around.
Other people will practice healing at home through means such as yoga. Others will turn to a spiritual healer or mentor and others may look to self-help books and tools. Whatever you choose to use, only you will know if you’re ready to have an awakening.
You’ll know because you’ll be free of whatever it was that has caused you anxiety, fear and turmoil. Once you do that, you’ll be open for an awakening. When you believe that you’re ready, make sure that you understand what an awakening really is.
Some people believe that once they have an awakening, it means that they’ll go through life without ever experiencing any heartache – that they’ll never feel stress or pain of any kind.
That’s not what a spiritual awakening is! It doesn’t take away problems and give you a life that’s perfect. What an awakening will do is make you more in tune with what’s going on so that you experience acceptance and peace.
It’s this acceptance that helps you once you’ve had a spiritual awakening because you won’t go through life with the “world is out to get me” attitude. Instead, you’ll be able to put things into perspective.
You’ll understand that bad things may happen. But what an awakening helps with is that it leads you to make a difference when you do experience personal suffering or you see that someone else is suffering.
Of course, it’s important to note that a spiritual awakening isn’t something you just decide you want. It’s something that begins to stir within you. And once you feel the stirrings, then you can take steps to get there!
As with many good things, there can be a downside to experiencing a spiritual awakening. In the final Part 6 of this series, we’ll look at what could go wrong!
