A Spiritual Ascension can be thought of a natural evolutionary process which involves the process of dissolving of your prior three dimensional self and experiencing an inner rebirth that involves your over-soul and higher self. You are in essence raising your vibrational frequency while you are in a body and during your life process on Earth. This is an inner and outer transformation and expansion of your mind, heart, and soul being. Your spiritual ascension is really about reaching a heightened spiritual placement and transcending previous habits, belief systems and mindsets that were limiting and keeping you from spiritual awareness.
Spiritual ascension is not about peace and tranquility. For those that really experience it it might be interwoven into the experience but it is profound learning that involves surrender, sacrifice and sometimes deep pain. It is more often accompanied by severe and life altering physical and mental transitions that can propel those that go through thi into what is called the Dark Night of the Soul. It can be physically ,emotionally and spiritually tumultuous. All world perspectives are smashed. Personal relationships are questioned and and released. The body itself undergoes a massive cleansing process that can last for years, even decades. It is arduous and all consuming.
The Awakening of Our Mind
This type of awakening comes forward when you experience a powerful epiphany or sudden realization. This deep understanding does not necessarily translate to integrated experience but it does feel like an astonishing flash of enlightened perspective that can assist you in understanding your life process. It can indicate that you have gone through some sort of pain and deepening and are ready to receive the spiritual downloads from the higher planes because you will now understand the information and meaning behind the information.
If you have had the experience of a sudden feeling of resonance when an experience or person or word or synchronicity falls into a larger unsolved puzzle? This is what is known as a mental awakening. Quite often realizations will stay with us and motivate and inspire profound changes in our life experience. This type of awakening comes when you experience major epiphanies or sudden mental realizations. This saturated understanding does not necessarily translate to integrated experience but it does feel like an astonishing flash vision of an enlightened perspective that can help you mentally understand life and certain events and reasons for why things occurred as they have.
Awakening of Our New Personality
When mental awakenings are consistent and go deep enough, over a period of time they can result in the development of a new personality. This type of transformation and ascension involves cutting away and moving past old limiting and toxic patterns and developing qualities such as self-love, awareness and understanding. While this type of awakening isn’t as profound as a soul awakening, it is a very important component on the spiritual path. When mental awakenings are consistent and go deep enough over a period of time they can result in the development of a new and ascended personality.
This type of spiritual transformation and ascension involves the dissolution of previously limiting and toxic behaviors and choices and the development of virtuous and beautiful qualities such as self-love, empowerment and unconditional love. This particular type of awakening isn’t as profound and intense as a Kundalini Awakening it still plays an important role in ones ascension process and spiritual growth.
Try and think back to the type of person you were two to three years ago. Think about the things that your were interested and the people who were around you. Are you still the same person in thoughts and deeds? Have you made major changes and forward moving shifts in consciousness? Have people moved out of your life and new people came in? If you can observe growth in your being and in your earthly life then it is quite likely you’ve experienced a personality awakening. This type of awakening is caused when previously internalized, blocked or rejected aspects of the personality have been integrated and accentuated in order to create a higher and more aware vibration in ones soul.wholeness.
A Spiritual Ascension can sometimes refer to awakening spiritual energy within the body and energy fields or aura. When the life force energy is awakened profound changes occur on the physical and spiritual level. Ancient practices such as tai chi, yoga, meditation can assist in awakening this energy, but sometimes life force energy awakens spontaneously. This sudden activation is called a Kundalini Awakening, which enters the realms of the soul and total awakening. There is a certain providence over spontaneous awakenings I believe.
An awakening of spiritual energy can range from feeling very mild all the way to the other side of the spectrum of being extreme and disruptive. Common signs of an awakening of spiritual energy involve feelings of enhanced vitality and energy on the physical level, energy rushes, tingling and electrical feelings throughout the body, changes in sexual libido, sharpened awareness,feeling of oneness. Troubling symptoms can also arise such as mood swings,anxiety, physical and emotional hypersensitivity, insomnia, seizures, loss of appetite or overeating which is a symptom of trying to ground oneself as well as extreme and bizarre altered states of consciousness.
Awakening of the Soul
Soul awakenings can be very brief and sudden, or long and drawn out. Brief soul awakenings are often referred to in Zen Buddhism as ‘Satori’ which is the experience of seeing into one’s true eternal nature. This glimpse of enlightenment is often short and doesn’t last very long (one moment to a few days). On the other hand, long-term soul awakenings are experienced as a deepening of contact with one’s Soul. This could involve consistently uniting with one’s soul purpose, spirit guides, or higher self and thereby understanding and beginning to experience oneself as Eternal and Limitless. This awakening usually involves the Solar Plexus and understanding the Soul’s purpose in this lifetime. Spiritual ascension’ can sometimes refer to awakening spiritual energy within the body and energy field. When life force energy (commonly referred to as Qi, Prana, or Kundalini energy) is awakened, major changes can occur on the physical through the spiritual levels.
Ancient spiritual practices such as Tai Chi, yoga, meditation, and the Tantrics assist in awakening these energies. Sometimes these life forces awaken spontaneously. This type of sudden activation is called a Kundalini Awakening which enters the realms of the soul and total awakening.
An awakening of spiritual energy can feel mild all the way to extreme. Common signs of an awakening of spiritual energy involve feelings of enhanced vitality and energy on the physical level, powerful rushes of energy, tingling and electrical shocks throughout the body, heightened awareness, and feelings of unity and oneness with the universe.
Challenging symptoms can also arise such as mood swings,fatigue, physical hypersensitivity, insomnia, seizures, loss of appetite or overeating, extreme and profound altered states of consciousness. Your world can turn upside down. A dissolution of the self-centered life. Development of virtuous qualities such as compassion, tolerance, forgiveness and unconditional love also accompany soul awakenings.
Kundalini Awakening
An Enlightenment is an extremely rare experience in which the ‘self’ or “person hood” dissolves and all that remains is Unity With All. This state is called by many names: Oneness, Moksha, non-dual awareness, Buddhahood, Illumination. It is the rarest of all spiritual awakenings. Such an intense state of being can arrive spontaneously or through years of spiritual study and discipline. In both instances the total awakening is a gift from God. It really isn’t something that we can achieve in the logical sense of the word. When enlightenment occurs, there is an experience of being both nothing and everything all at once; it is a state that transcends thought and the mind itself, it is a Mystical Awakening. The truth is finally seen, understood, and overcome, and all that remains is the Pure Awareness, Presence, Love, and Truth. This type of awakening is known as a Kundalini Awakening. This is not a path for the fainthearted by any means. Yoga is one of the primary ways that Kundalini can awaken. Please understand that yoga is not excercise. It is serious business and the only point of yoga practice is to awaken Kundalini. However, all traditions generally agree that it is considered dangerous to awaken Kundalini without the guidance of a Master..
Kundalini can also awaken as a result of severe trauma, serious and chronic health issues, a near-death experience(s), through Shakti Pat (in which the awakening occurs with the assistance of a spiritual teacher). It can also occur through a religious ceremony such as Ayahuasca or through use of drugs and alcohol abuse. Kundalini may also occur due to a past-life awakening or being intimate with someone who has an awakened their Kundalini energy. You may not be aware that this person has been awakened. It can also be awakened through the meeting of a Twin Flame meeting.
Kundalini is a Sanskrit term from ancient India that identifies the arising of an energy and consciousness which has been coiled at the base of the spine since birth, and is the source of the life force (Pranic energy, chi , bio-energy) that everybody knows. Yogic science suggests that this energy triggered the formation of the child in the womb, and then coils 3 ½ times at the base of the spine to hold the energy field in stasis until we die, when it uncoils and returns to its source
Kundalini unravels and arises from the base of the spine due to spiritual practices, or in response to major life events. When this occurs it may move gradually, uncoiling like a snake, or quickly and explosively into the solar plexus area and/or the Heart Chakra or the Crown Chakra. This event can be startling and haphazard, frightening or blissful. It usually triggers months, maybe years of new sensations and changes in the person who awakens it. It may feel like the persons body has been taken over and is under attack. It can take a while to adjust and understand that a rewiring of every single cell is taking place. It is understood in the eastern tradition to be a significant adjunct to spiritual realization, but it is rarely recognized as such in western traditions, although Christian mystics have often been said to have intense energetic or physical problems.
It is possible to find acknowledgement of this spiritual movement in many yogic and Tantric traditions, Buddhism, Taoism, Gnostic Mysticism and some Native American teachings. An image of a snake rising within the body signifies its existence in the esoteric art of many cultures. The capacity to intensify and raise energy in the body has been explored for thousands of years. It is a natural human potential in a life experience.
Kundalini awakening can trigger a wide range of phenomena both positive and negative. It can cause significant changes in your physical, emotional, and psychic abilities. It can cause enormous stress in vulnerable areas of the body, open the heart and mind to major shifts in perspective, and cause many unique and unfamiliar sensations including shaking, vibrating, spontaneous movements, flash visions, changes in vision and weight. Periods of bliss and complete faith in the universe is also a common reported experience but it is intermittent.
Kundalini awakening offers a profound opportunity for those called to experience immense spiritual growth. The Kundalini will gradually over time release many earthly patterns, conditions and mental perceptions of the earthly self. It can be very threatening to ones ego-structure because a person may feel a loss of interest in their old life and identity and consciousness may go into unfamiliar expansive or empty states that are disorienting and destabilizing. It can also cause people who are unfamiliar with Kundalini energy afraid they are becoming mentally ill and or are going insane. Patience, understanding and education about the Kundalini process is important for the navigation process.Supportive healers and teachers are invaluable in this ascension. Finding others who have also experienced this type of awakening will help you understand and work through your symptoms and stages without feeling isolated. You are not alone in your process. There is always help for you. Try to stay away from reading alarming material online. Stick with the foundational information. You don’t have to completely dive into it and it does not need to become your entire life. Go slowly to no overwhelm.
Like any energy of creation this energy can be activated and misused by those who are not spiritually motivated or have not completed this process and are therefore not free of personal patterns. This would create a high vibrational person who is here for themselves. Many so-called Gurus or Yogis profess to be “Awakened”. Believe me, if you are in a Kundalini Awakening you would never take on a position of adoration or authority. Kundalini is the antithesis of that. These folks are among us and will most likely be at war with themselves. It is very helpful to understand the process and the intention of your own life force as it awakens you so that you may discover the wisdom, love and authentic direction in your own life. Simplicity, contentment, unconditional love and acceptance and self possession are the tenets of an awakened life in the Kundalini. I believe that all trauma, impurities and inverted auric imprints are resolved in the Kundalini experience. The soul may be released from the reincarnation cycle through Kundalini and may not have a reason to come back to the Earth. Keep that in mind in any yoga practice. Those that are heavily involved in the world, raising children or driven in their careers should really think twice about potentially awakening Kundalini because it will not allow you to function in a third dimensional paradigm. Additionally, the high your vibrational frequency the more intense your awakening may be. A word of caution to those seeking spiritual liberation from something that is permanent and very invasive spiritually.
My Kundalini Awakening
My Kundalini was awakened spontaneously two years ago. At the time I was unfamiliar with the term and had never practiced any type of yoga or meditation. I came into contact with a person who I believe may be a twin flame or a catalyst. This person literally came out of nowhere and dissapeared as quickly. I have never felt anything like that before. I had only known this person for a week. I still think about him everyday. It was the most profound experience I have ever had in my life besides having my children. At the onset I thought I was dying. The physical symptoms and especially the stomach bloating and vomiting were horrendous.I still deal with massive bloating everyday (I included a photo op) It has invaded every corner every corner of my life and seemingly burned off deep impurities and negative imprints and impurities- anything that is not in alignment with my higher self. I am coming towards my third year in this process. I have learned quite a bit, but it has been very challenging to say the least. I still see and hear ghosts and now a whole new group of energies have shown up. Things I have not encountered before. I have found that I can no longer watch the news the way I used to, be exposed to any violence or loudness. Low vibrational people are no longer are part of my life. My entire world view has changed. I am still me, but I am not attached to the outcomes of things so much. I don’t think I would have ever had the guts to release this intentionally now that I have gone through a lot of the major cleansing process. And I still can’t believe that someone would consciously awaken this energy. It is intense!!!!! But not everyone is me. If I had advanced knowledge of this process I would have done everything in my power to stay away from it. I still believe that spirituality should not ever be forced. It should unfold.
As a medium the Kundalini has created such a strong vibration in my body that I am now have many experiences with the Angelic. It is almost a 10th dimensional energy flowing through me and it has taken a while to integrate it into my other bodies. Communicating with those on the Astral Plane or who are Earthbound or unsaved is sometimes difficult for me now. It was never something I felt completely comfortable doing. It does occur in my sessions but it was never the mainstay of my practice. It is what it is now I suppose. There are plenty of mediums who can channel the dead. I encourage those that are seeking this specifically to seek those people out. My practice is now centered on assisting folks with their souls journey. I would rather assist people in their lives here today on Earth and allow those that have passed on to be at peace and be were they need to be. I still see spirits everyday. I hear them. Things still move around. It never stops. But I now feel more of an obligation to help cross over those who are too densified to leave the Earth, rather than pull them back to this plane.
I am not at all the person I was nearly three years ago. Looking back I was living in a very perfectionist and outcome-based state. I wanted to fit it, but I can’t. I never wanted to disappoint anyone and that made me very weary trying to please everyone. When the Kundalini came along pleasing people was one of the first thing to go. I am a stubborn and a somewhat fixed person so I battled the Kundalini with my shear will for nearly two years. I finally surrendered which I used to think was a passive approach. I now realize that surrendering is the most cardinal thing I can do. It can take time to get to that space. I am grateful now for my Kundalini Awakening. For having died to myself. I did not know that it was going to heal me.
Spiritual ascension may arrive in many different variations within a life experience, with the most powerful form of ascension culminating as Total Awakening, self-realization or Enlightenment. An awakening is just the beginning of our journey. The purpose of these processes is your spiritual liberation although it may not seem that way when you are going through the rewiring process. Within spiritual freedom we are relieved from the pain of the ego’s desires and bonds and are able to exist in ways that are intrinsic to our divine life. We are free.
Our souls arrive in our bodies to move through their our ascensions in accordance with the previous lifetimes and lessons learned in those previous lifetimes. It is a highly individualistic experience that is specific to each soul. Many people try to find shortcuts like trying to conceptually go there by intellectually believing. The list of misguided spiritual truths and laws is very long and it is far easier to say and think such things than to really let go of the deep attachments and fears that chain people to the ego.On the Earth is where we learn to be free.In the spiritual awakenings the divine touches us in the body so we can grow. It is in the letting go you begin to find yourself and your ultimate purpose here on beautiful earth.
