MAP OF AWAKENING
A Toolkit for Transformation
On any journey it helps to have a map that gives an idea of where we have been, where we are now, and what lies ahead.
Unlike traditional spiritual teachings where the individual's life is rarely explored, in unitive awakening the potential for complete transformation is much greater.
However at the moment we dont yet have handbooks that hold the overview that transcendent enlightenment is natural and also that personal growth is healthy - or how to go about both together.
In your journey of awakening you will be exploring two main areas of awakening; the transcendent and the individual.
Opening in to each of these individually, and together, builds a whole that offers us a real possibility for a truly integrated spirituality.
Below is an overview of the main areas of awakening.
Transcendent Enlightenment
This area of awakening, sometimes also called nonduality, involves opening into the mystical ground of being.
Spiritual teachers down the ages, and around the globe, have described our true nature as an undivdied Oneness that is the ground and source of everything - including me and you.
Direct transcendent nondual awakening into our infinite and formless nature, not merely belief or dogma, is an important aspect of unitive spiritual enlightenment.
Soul Self
Your Soul can be likened to the blueprint for the unique being that you are, with your natural talents, creativity and gifts.
Reclaiming your Soul Self covers a wide territory, and this includes recovering from the times in your past where you may have had to disconnect from your authentic self, with ongoing costs to you now - perhaps in your health, relationships or creativity.
There are also areas of personal development which might include awakening intuition or developing empathy and authenticity.
Over the years it has become very clear to me that what we have been taught about who we are, and our place on the planet, is far smaller than is either natural - or healthy.
The biggest gift you can give to yourself in your one precious life, as well as the biggest gift you can bring to the world, is your whole, and awakening self, showing up.
