토론:영적 각성

"An awakening has begun, an awakening to a deeper realm within yourself, a deeper experience."

"This is a time when a great awakening must happen within you, a great stirring of the heart."

각성의 충격

"People think spiritual awakening is all bliss and happiness. Yes, there is a great relief. Yes, there is a great homecoming. But then you begin to experience the predicament that you and the world are in. And though you are not likely to become panicked or terrified, you will go to work very soon, and you will work continuously."

"When you begin to awaken, one of the first things you realize upon awakening is your predicament. It is not a happy awakening, necessarily. Yes, it is a great relief to finally feel what you really feel and to know what you really know. Yet what you see at the beginning is your predicament, and you say, 'Oh, no! Oh, my God!' You feel it, and you know it, and it is powerful. And you ask yourself, 'Am I just being negative? Am I just being fearful? Or is it really like this?' It is really like this."

"When you share The Way of Knowledge with others, even if you do nothing more than say, 'Read this,' or 'Consider this idea,' you are challenging them to awaken, which is a difficult process in and of itself. You are challenging them to throw off the weight of seemingly endless dreaming and speculation and to awaken into a situation where there is great disorder in the world and great suffering as well. You are asking them to do this when you present The Way of Knowledge. You are giving them the greatest challenge, and you are giving them the ultimate gift."

"To the worldly mind, this can seem like madness. To Heaven, the worldly mind acting alone is confirmed madness."

영적 각성의 정의

"The great awakening, the redemption that must take place is reconnecting your thinking mind, your personal mind that has been conditioned and shaped by culture, family and religion, to the deeper mind that God has placed within you, the mind of Knowledge."

관계와 영적 각성

"Commitment to personal romance is the commitment to stay in fantasy about another and to use the other person to support your fantasy about yourself. If either of you in this relationship awakened, it would threaten the relationship itself."

신의 상호의존적 기관

"The Greater Reality of which you are a part wishes to express itself through you in the world so that you may experience your own greatness and the greatness of others. Here you extend the experience of your Spiritual Family into the world. Here you experience your Ancient Home while you are in the world. This sparks all minds that are still asleep to awaken. This is the mystery of Knowledge."
