The Awakening

 

The shift to the state of Enlightenment cannot be missed.  It happens as a result of an undeniable permanent shift in your innermost sense of self.  It is a shift from being solely identified with your mind and the person that you think you are now -- to being the unlocalized silent pure Awareness that is aware of the person that is thinking, feeling, perceiving, and experiencing.  It is coming back to your natural state of wholeness, completeness.  

It has been thought that Enlightenment was only for the rare and special few, and that if it happened it happened by chance or by grace -- but Enlightenment can happen for anyone who is ready and has the proper guidance.  It is the birthright of everyone.   

The Secret to Awakening   

Anyone can awaken at anytime.  The shift to Awakening can happen irrespective of what you believe in, or how deeply you believe in it.  It can happen regardless of what self-development and spiritual techniques you have been practicing, or how long you have been practicing them. Techniques are invaluable for raising the level of consciousness and gaining greater purity, refinement and balance in life; but the actual shift to being Pure Consciousness itself is beyond all techniques.

The secret to Awakening is readiness, openness, simplicity, innocence and clear simple guidance from within, from nature, or from an awakened teacher.

Ironically, even though the shift to the state of Enlightenment is completely natural and utterly simple, many people (even deeply spiritual people) may not be ready for it due to their deep-seated concepts and beliefs that prevent them from being completely open, simple and innocent.  But eventually everyone will mature to the point where Awakening will happen.   

Total Awakening 

The initial awakening to being Pure Consciousness is the first step in the unfoldment of the full value of Consciousness to itself.  The innermost self becomes awake to itself as the infinite silent Witness -- the silent source of everything everywhere. 

A deeper refinement within Consciousness begins to occur through the natural surrender of Consciousness to itself within itself. Consciousness gradually begins to experience the cosmic Divine dimension of the individual feelings, intellect, mind, body, personality, senses, and objects of experience.

Yet another deeper awakening happens within the silent Witness itself as it recognizes and experiences itself everywhere as the Oneness pervading and permeating everything with no separation within itself between the Witness and the individual and all objects of experience. 

A continually deepening unfoldment of Consciousness to itself is perpetually taking place within Consciousness.  Consciousness fully awakens with precise clarity to what the appearance of all life in the world and universe really is -- its own internal dynamics of the perpetual flow of its Self within itself knowing itself.  It is the Totality of all that Is, and it is all Divine.

Another still deeper awakening happens to Consciousness that is beyond Being or not Being, beyond Self or not Self, beyond Consciousness or not Consciousness, and beyond all description.

TheCALLLretreat provides guidance to the natural  shift  and unfoldment of that Total Awakening. The permanent shift to that total awakening is what is necessary at this time for the benefit of the world.
