Spiritual awakening is - Resting in Being.
We will see and learn how to access our being permanently, even while being active in the world.
Spiritual awakening is not a special feeling, state, or experience. It is not a goal or destination to attain in the future. As the Buddha told us, it is not a superhuman achievement or attainment. Spiritual awakening is your natural state of continuous awareness of inner Being and abiding in that state of "feeling-realization" of Being.
When you experience the Joy of Being or life itself, finding purpose and meaning in the outer realm is finding the light of a candle when you already are Sun!
The nature of your Being is Sat-chit-Ananda.
Sat is Being ( Sat means "Truth" too)
Chit is Consciousness or Awareness
Ananda is Bliss
So, the Being is conscious and Blissful all the time. Whenever you rest in your Being, your nature is conscious and blissful.
Once you turn your mind inward and rest it in your Being, your mind transforms into being itself. When your mind goes outward, it becomes the Ego and a thousand things of the world.
What Is The Ultimate Desire of The Ego?
The ultimate desire of the Ego is the disguised desire to realize God-that is ultimate satisfaction and fulfillment. The Ego is the unconscious and unobserved mind that identifies with thought forms and material forms and tries to find God in thoughts and worldly things. The Ego wants to realize the Source of all life that is being, but it goes outward to realize it. Once it turns inward, it finds it's beloved and merges with the Being. Then, the mind rests into Being and realizes God.
You are not a person with a mind-body. You are the awareness that occupies that mind-body for a relatively very short period of time. Since you are awareness, there is no need to attain or cultivate it. All you have to do is to give up being aware of other things that are not Being. If one gives up awareness of them, then pure awareness alone remains, which is the Being.
