Spirituality's Next Evolution

Have you had glimpses of profound states, but your average daily baseline seems far from that?

Do you intellectually understand certain spiritual concepts, but long to embody them and feel them throughout your life?

Awakening is a Process with a Clear Map

Over the millennia, it has been dedicated to and realized by few, yet misunderstood by many.

Some say “when I had my awakening” like it was a thing that happened once. Often this person is referencing a past memory of a temporary state. The Awakening process is not the memory of a past state or something that you once tasted in a plant medicine ceremony.

And it doesn’t matter what clothes you wear, how many ceremonies you’ve done, if you’ve been to Burning Man or how Spiritual AF you seem on Instagram.

Nor is it just a kundalini energy activation up the central channel, which is only subtle energy which arises within the larger unified Non-Dual Awareness —although this is often part of the process. It is a direct experience, a felt sense beyond thoughts and concepts that words can only point to.  It is a combination of Grace and specific practice.   It is universal Awareness beyond any one culture although many traditional have had effective practices to realize It like Zen, Transcendental Meditation, Sanskrit Mantra, Kabbalah, Shamanism, Vipassana, Quepassana, WTFassana???   

These are all roads to the grand Spiritual Awakening. We are so fortunate to be alive at this time in history when we have access to the wisdom of so many great traditions across the world and throughout history. Some traditions had very clear steps for a certain part of the Awakening process but had big blind spots in other areas.
