Seeking Spiritual Awakening—A Great Exploration!

Congratulations!

You chose to begin your exploration because you know there must be more, just more, some way, somehow.

I hope my description of myself on my “About” page may give you some idea of where I’m focused and how I may help you in your exploration of yourself.

Or I hope one of my books may provide some spark for your soul to make that powerful, awakening connection to your Heart, even though Ego may be trying to steer you to some other course.

I don’t want to leave you with vague, fuzzy feelings, so I offer the following to you. The thoughts here are based on my little ebook, Superhero You! Discover Self. Create Purpose.

In it, I tell a bit of my own story and provide a framework of experiences I went through. None of them are required, and certainly, the order in which I offer the seven steps are not a formula.

I wrote the book and present it as I do because it may be a help for some who seek some sort of  meaning, peace, and enjoyment in our time here.

Here is one framework snippet for you:

“How do you feel when you first wake up? A little groggy, perhaps, fuzzy? Or maybe you’re excited and jump up right away because you know something exciting is happening today — and then you stumble a little because your feet and legs aren’t caught up with your thoughts.

“All of this is normal when we come to spiritual awakening. We have to shake off the effects of our bodies and minds being in an apparently dormant, self-preserving state. When we recognize, as in a dream or maybe through a literal dream, that we have Heart, eternal Spirit, as part of our package deal, we emerge from a state of dormancy, dormancy produced by Ego, but Heart has been at work.

“Others have likened the process to metamorphosis, a transition from a cocoon to a butterfly in several stages. We came here to experience such transformation, to be a beautiful, purposeful, evolving creature, a creature with energy building to maturity while appearing to be dormant.

"Core Self, Heart, that piece of eternal Spirit with whom we arrived on Earth, desires us to awaken to our energy, power, and presence. This is the reason we come to this physical realm: we wish to express, live, and allow Spirit to sense the physical world of its own creation, our co-creation.

“Because we needed Ego to help us survive in a physical and social structure, a disconnect happened between our core Self and our mind-soul-body. I think it is a designed disconnect that drives us on a journey of discovery; it’s simply life. One remedy to reconnection is a spiritually-spurred prompt of this question: Who am I?

“We came to live that self, and until we personally face and know Heart, we will sense a void, one causing us to feel incomplete, causing us to question ourselves. Most people at some point in life will ask Who Am I? The answer to that is I Am, an existing physical entity housed within eternal Spirit for awhile in this mind-body-soul-complex, and I personalize Spirit with my physical attributes, my thought processes, and my emotional composition, all expressed in my total life experiences.”

At this point, I hope you sense how easy this is. We have two operating systems of Ego and Heart. Ego is the default “factory” setting for physical survival.

Heart is the system with which we come to experience, enjoy, and engage with life. Look at yourself in a mirror. See the eyes, the presence behind those physical eyes. That’s your Heart staring right at you, offering you a way to walk through this existence meaningfully. Just greet yourself and say Yes!

And continue to follow me for more!
