Toward a World that Works for Everyone
There are considerations that make it undesirable to simply grant that all lightworkers quickly experience the higher states of enlightenment. These include cosmic consciousness, God-Realization and sahaja samadhi. (1) The most important consideration is that people who experience those states may choose not to serve. I’ve known cases of enlightenment where lightworkers have abandoned existing […]
The legendary scientist Isaac Newton spent his entire life in fear of the possibility of being sentenced to death for heresy. Even as he published his Laws of Motion, he kept very quiet about his religious views. Newton was a key figure in the Enlightenment, an era from the 1650s to the 1780s in which […]
Credit: Jillconyers.com I wrote the following for the “reader’s question” section of The Culture of Awareness Weekly Newsletter. Our question this week comes from a reader who wants to know about the role gratitude plays in finding wisdom and enlightenment. “Isn’t unconditional gratitude the state that allows all ‘wisdom’ or ‘enlightenment’ to come through?” Absolutely! […]
Credit: Elephantjournal.com I’ve written a lot about the benefits of getting out and being active, and an active lifestyle is recommended for anyone who wants to raise their vibration or get the most out of life. Keeping active is a great way to keep the spirit moving through us, and a lot of creative people […]
Credit: Zodiac-heaven.blogspot.com I enjoy writing reports about enlightenment, but some of the advice we’ve been given by spiritual teachers from the past isn’t quite relevant to the present. Depending on which teacher you listen to, the veil was much thicker when they shared their teachings with the world. We’re capable of achieving a lot more […]
There are plenty of ways we can find enlightenment, and they all require dedication to the spiritual path. Even though it’ll be worth our effort, enlightenment is probably the hardest thing we’ll ever experience because it requires us to seriously discern what about our life is keeping us from achieving our goal. Some seekers think […]
“Knowing others is wisdom; Knowing the self is enlightenment; Mastering others requires force; Mastering the self needs strength” – Lao Tzu I write about enlightenment so much because of its importance to the spiritual path, especially for the person who has unresolved habits and tendencies that keep them from raising their vibration. I’m not saying […]
“With what love and desire for union (with God) one is seized — what wondering delight!” – Plotinus It’s been said that every form of desire is ultimately a desire to know our creator (and to know ourselves as our creator). All of the longing we experience, which we convince ourselves is for material things, […]
The goal of enlightenment, beyond reaching a higher state of consciousness, is to be able to live in peace and hold no resistance to any person or idea. Enlightenment isn’t easy by any means, but by the end of the process, we’ll have refined our consciousness and taught ourselves how to flow with life with […]
Sometimes, we reach a point where we want to feel more connected with the Christ within; more connected with our essence, and when this happens, we might have to ask ourselves a few essential questions. One of them is if we’re making choices throughout our day that are in alignment with our wish to be […]
One of the ideas that’s tossed around the conscious community is that there are other planes of existence beyond the physical earth. With dedication, effort and patience, we can raise our vibration and become higher-vibrational beings who look upon the earth (and other lower realms) with the desire to help its people evolve. Some people […]
(Concluded from yesterday) Enlightenment Around 1977, a second branch of things opened up for me when Sai Baba came to my attention. That’d be a very long story. Suffice it to say that I had two spiritual experiences connected with him, one of which left my hair standing on end. Going to India and visiting […]
Heavenletter #5100 A Milestone, November 11, 2014, https://heavenletters.org/a-milestone.html God said: Simply let go of finding fault. What a milestone that will be — to let go of fault-finding — to be a joy-finder instead. Even if you step in a puddle, find joy in the remarkableness of stepping into a puddle. Okay, if it’s bad enough […]
Written by Wes Annac, The Culture of Awareness, November 10, 2014 – https://tinyurl.com/mq9zdmc Enlightenment is a beautiful, sacred and revolutionary process of spiritual growth, and it isn’t widely available to everyone. Only those who are willing to take a serious, discerning look at themselves and determine what needs shifted and transformed before they can open […]
I said earlier that I felt an inner impulse to write about love and what I’d usually do with that is to research it. But time for research is scarce these days and the impulse continues. So I’m afraid I have to yield to it without researching. Instead I draw upon my inner knowing, from […]
