SPIRITUAL AWAKENING - How do we do it?

When I was writing The Whispering Soul, I
became more aware of the importance of being able to tune in to the Gentle
Wisdom of our Soul Knowledge.
Once we begin to hear the whispering of our
soul, we will notice certain changes taking place, both within us and around
us. These will be spiritual, emotional, physical and mental; as you and your
family and friends learn to adjust to the implications of your spiritual
growth. As your spiritual awareness grows, those around you will gradually
become aware there are changes taking place in the landscape of their
relationship with you and not everyone will react in a supportive, or positive
way. Most people like to avoid change to the “status quo” and so, will resist
the perceived threat, by ”trying to talk some sense into you”, or by
undermining your desire for change in more subtle ways.
This is where you need to develop an
invaluable skill – “believing in yourself”.
If you are sincere on your spiritual path, you
will move forward, even if you do it with uncertainty and some fear at first. As
you learn to open yourself up to the wisdom of your own soul, you will find
that the guidance you need, comes from a place of inner stillness, rather than from
a logical calculation, of how best to proceed.
Remember, you are in new territory now and
there is no map!
We
don’t have to see oxygen to know that it is there. We simply accept that it is
and carry on breathing. In much the same way; we don’t have to know where our
Spiritual Guidance comes from, in order to take advantage of the wisdom that it
can offer us. We just have to believe that we can develop the awareness needed
to tune in to it.
In order
to initiate Spiritual Awareness, you need to tell your subconscious that you
intend to be Spiritually Aware. This can be done by gentle repetitive
suggestion. Once you are open to Spiritual Guidance; you should begin to expect
it. By doing so, you will tune your attention to a particular band of spiritual
vibration, often referred to as the “Higher Self”.
Imagine
your body as a radio receiver designed to pick up and relay spiritual
vibrations; in much the same way as a radio picks up and relays sound
vibrations. The dial that tunes you into the spiritual guidance band, is your attention.
When
you tune your attention into the realm of Spiritual activity, you can expect to
receive this relay. By being open to it, you turn your field of Spiritual Awareness
“on” to spiritual energy and gradually, it will begin to flow.
