Fear accelerates Spiritual Growth

silhouette photo of man throw paper plane

Have you had that feeling of being fearful about losing your job? And that thought led to more fear of survival itself? Who will take care of my kids? Who will pay for the mortgage?

The worry simply adds on. And these all feel so real. Then you start to feel miserable, lonely, empty inside. And all that panic, sickness, and confusion kicks in that make you feel more negative, exhausted and depleted in your energy levels. 

Unfortunately, this gives way to more fear and negativity, and you start to say to yourself silently: you are not good enough; you are not worthy or you have no divine guidance – as you start to lose all hope. 

Does this lead to searching for answers on the internet as to what to do? (Perhaps that is why you are here.) Navigating through your fear is truly a blessing and is the purpose of this post. 

This post is will help you get past your fears and guide you to what to do as we will delve into:

  1. How fear can be a blessing in disguise?
  2. Why fear fear?
  3. What to fear and what not to fear?
  4. How to find your lessons when you are in a state of fear?
  5. How does fear limit us?

Fear accelerates Spiritual Growth: Question 1: How fear can be a blessing in disguise?

Think of fear as a bridge that you need to pass through. But we remain on that bridge for a very long time. The bridge is the pathway that leads to a realization of your great lessons learned on the other side. 

If you are here to learn how to overcome the fear of inadequacy, then you will be placed in a life story where you may feel that you don’t have enough money before you can quit your job.

But the blessing lies in trusting and believing that you have enough money to survive. This fear motivates you to look for an alternate life. It steers you into finding a job that pays less, but you get to work fewer hours and still provide for your family. 

But we simply don’t trust the divine plan because we are very fearful. The question of what if keeps coming to our mind. What-ifs are illusions. Hold the what-ifs by the horns and move out of your comfort zone. 

So instead of sticking with our fear and not letting it go, you should fear fear so much that you start to let it go and surrender. 

Honestly, I repeat, we should fear fear itself, and strive to do our best and leave the rest so His grace flows freely.

Fear accelerates Spiritual Growth: Question 2: Why fear fear?

Fear brings a profound sense of understanding and realization about the nature of your karma or actions in transit. When you are being fearful about an event, person, or a thing, you know deep down inside why but instead of resolving it, you suppress it or try to escape from it. 

When the fear reaches a tipping point, it means that you are not in alignment with the divine will. Fear was a signpost that there was something that you were not doing correctly. 

This is why you must know yourself and be yourself. When you are being your authentic self, and doing your authentic purpose for what you are here to do, the fear simply loses its grip on you. I teach that in my 1-1 coaching sessions.

There is much joy, love, beauty in knowing yourself and being yourself. It is easy and comes naturally. Try it with your kids, and wife for a day. Look in their eyes and simply feel grateful for what you have. The fear will go away.

 Fear accelerates Spiritual Growth: Question 3: What to fear and what not to fear?

Fear is an illusion. The thoughts that run in your mind are just that, thoughts. You can easily bring it into form by taking fearful actions. But you have been doing that and are now paying for the consequences. Your thoughts need to be pure, positive, optimal, and loving. 

What to fear? You must be fearful to have an attitude of fear. Ask yourself: how does it feel to be fearful? Why am I doing the things that I am fearful of?

What not to fear? Don’t fear your thoughts? Transcend them. I teach that in my coaching sessions. 

Fear accelerates Spiritual Growth: Question 4: How to find your lessons when you are in a state of fear?

By deep-diving into asking meaningful questions that help you reason out your fear. Ask yourself: why is it happening to me?

  • If it is work: what is so fearful at work?
  • If it is your environment: what is so fearful about the environment?
  • If it is your relationship: what is so fearful about the relationship?

I wrote many blog posts on spiritual life lessons that we are here to learn. Those are a great starting gate. Read them to see what resonates with you the most. Then take appropriate actions or reach out to me for guidance. 

There are various lessons that you learn as a courageous soul such as boldness, love, respect, unconditional love, forgiveness, peace, balance, comfort zone, surrender, letting go, gratitude, and of course fear of many things.

With a limited mind, we expand ourselves and evolve through various life lessons build on fear. You just need to be conscious enough to allow, accept and embrace the changes.

Fear accelerates Spiritual Growth: Question 5: How does fear limit us?

Fear limits our capacity to think outside our mental construct. Fear is born of lack of something. It limits us from thinking that we don’t have enough. That we are limited. 

It also makes us feel that life has no purpose. That there is no reason to live. It is better to commit suicide. It is a trickster. It robs us of living our purpose-driven life. 

On the brighter side, it makes us feel that life is meaningless which means that it is time that we start to look for the meaning in life, and not to end our life. 

A meaningful life is aligned with our divine purpose and plan and what we are here to do. The mind needs to be detoxed off fear so that we can think, and act clearly. So fear is good until it is not. It can even kill your appetite for meditation. Once you have learned your lessons, you need to move on. 

But many stick to it. Repress it and deep down inside feel guilty, depressed, disappointed and then play the blame game – so and so is bad. No one is bad. It is our perception that needs a transformation. As a transformation coach, I help you find your shining side! 

Fear helps us realize that we have set an upper limit that affects not only how we live by doing but also by being. That is, by being fearful and by doing meaningless work or being in an environment that is fearful. 

Ultimately, when the quality and quantity of trust and surrender will increase and outweigh the quantity of fear, then you will transcend fear. 

But you need to work at it, not escape it, by giving yourself plenty of time to slow down your thoughts until you can take care of yourself and disregard outside comparisons and competitions that deplete your energy.

From my experience, once you have completely surrendered you will be divinely guided and experience firsthand how fear can accelerate spiritual growth leading to true spiritual awakening. 

So are you willing to move past your fear? Do you have what it takes to move in a meaningful direction in life? Are you ready for a quick discovery call?

Then check my service page or contact me for a discovery call.

In Conclusion

Fear can accelerate spiritual growth. It brings a profound sense of understanding and realization about the nature and lessons of your karma. We need to reason out why we are fearful instead of escaping from it.

Although fear makes us feel that life is meaningless, it also helps us realize that it is then time to start looking for the meaning in life, and not to end our life. 

Ultimately, when the quality and quantity of trust and surrender will increase and outweigh the quantity of fear, then you will transcend fear, will experience divine will at play firsthand, and witness how fear can accelerate spiritual growth leading to true spiritual awakening.

Self-Love: A game worth playing

“The intense rules of the game of self-love involve: having healthy boundaries, creating a discipline for balance, nurturing self-compassion, growing in gratitude, evolving in self-worth, being mindful of self-care. It is a courageous hero’s journey. All you need to do is to let go and surrender even more – so you always win.”

Manprit Suri

All of the labels and titles in life that we call ourselves are not our self. We are unconsciously attached to it with force. Our five senses create this forceful illusion of unconscious conditional attachments to earthly 3-dimensional existence. And eventually, we become unbalanced, exhausted, burned out, and remain a victim or slaves of it. 

We assume that we are powerless without it. If you enter a challenge/game with no power, what kind of challenger are you? 

What is our power? Love. It is your divine power. It is your conscious power. Having a love relationship with yourself is the key to driving the divine power. 

As you awaken spiritually, you realize the power of self-love. Knowing how to channel your positive energy, power, or love consciously is the name of the game. 

In this post, we’ll delve into:

  • What is Self-love?
  • How to decondition self-love?
  • What is Self?
  • What are the criteria of teaching self-love?
  • How to play the game of self-love?
  • Can we play the game of self-love now?
  • When is the right time to start self-love?

Self-Love: Question #1: What is Self-love?

Self-love means giving more attention and awareness to your own ‘inner’ power or self with compassion. Giving priority to your inner-being leads to your well-being. Doing so requires vibrating with a higher level of consciousness. 

  • Self-love means being yourself, in love with yourself, being worthy of yourself. Being grateful for who you are, where you are, how you are!
  • Self-love means pushing other priorities that do not serve to love you. Creating boundaries and saying no to things, people, processes, relationships, careers that you do not love and doing what you love. 
  • Being with what you love may require isolation but may also mean balancing life the way you feel loved inside.
  • It means going to places that you love and not going to places that you don’t love. 
  • Loving your mind, your body, and your soul. Giving and receiving graceful vibrations to your thoughts, emotions, and physical body. Keeping and sustaining yourself in a higher state of happiness. Doing so requires being aware and away from any conditions. 

Self-Love: Question #2:How to decondition self-love?

Self-love can only happen in the absence of conditioning. The more you start to love yourself, the more deconditioning tends to occur. The many layers of the false sense of self begin to go away. 

Self-love strips away unconscious biases and the victim consciousness mentality caused due to comparisons, competitions, and conditions – weights on your soul-self. Such things only leave us with the symptoms of stress, anxiety, depression in the long run.

We need to dissolve our false self (not-self) to find the inner self. Only then can we truly understand our true selves and then experience the nature of self-love. 

The problem is we don’t quite remember what self-love feels like anymore. An even bigger problem is we have forgotten what self means. 

We have been busy becoming ‘not’ ourselves for decades and lifetimes that we have forgotten what it means to be ourself let alone love it. So we first need to come to terms with the definition of self itself!

Self-Love: Question #3:What is Self?

A self is beyond the terms we are given by our so-called society, relatives, and cultures. These terms are condition-naming limiting variables of our inner self that keep changing as we move across our timeline on this planet earth. 

There are various types such as dad, mom, brother, sister, grandmother, grandfather, religious titles, career titles, country titles such as citizens, aliens, etc. – a tiring proposition to remember them all. 

The real question is that are we the titles and labels? If so, then we wouldn’t exist if we didn’t have them? The titles did not exist before you started a career, had a baby, were married, when you were still in college, studying in school, were kids, an infant was still in the mother’s womb.  

These labels keep us tied here in competitions, comparisons only to create a divide among us humans – to belittle us if we don’t recognize them or achieve the many ambitions placed on us. Such living only distances us from our original self and makes us feel inferior. Why? Because it is a guilt game, not a game of self-love. 

Such a game is not worth playing. At least not anymore as it encourages corruption, self-hate, self-blame. It is a time of karmic settlement. We should consciously end such a game now. The challenge is that these titles are a necessary evil in our society. 

But unless your SELF hits rock bottom in life via life-changing traumas or events that trigger you to wonder if these things are what we are here for, you will never wake up to the reality. The traumas include mental illness, seizures, cancer, NDE or near-death experience, or anything that could trigger your spiritual awakening. 

It is after all these setbacks that you realize self-love is indeed a game worth playing. But how? What are the criteria?

Self-Love: Question #4:What are the criteria of teaching self-love?

Why teach? The best way to learn something is to teach it. You can only teach self-love when you have learned it yourself. Otherwise, your service to others will feel hollow from inside. 

To teach self-love, you must first reach a state in life where you feel a sense of emptiness, lack of something meaningful, something inadequate that gives birth to low self-esteem, lower vibrational frequency, unconscious living, and low confidence. Interestingly, this is the very state of our century currently. 

Many are reaching this tipping point or striving to unconsciously. It is the truth. And, it is also the criteria or an unconscious learning step towards self-love. That is, feeling miserable and hating yourself – by attaching to things outside of yourself and detaching from your inside self. 

Interestingly, you go through setbacks, unconscious self-hate, feeling not good enough, and floating in lower vibrations to ultimately wake up and rise, recognize, and realize the process of self-love. 

It is after you have distanced your outer self with your inner self far enough that you will come to realize your true self and start loving it. 

Self-love is a game worth playing and then teaching. But you will need courage for both as you will be challenged and stretched in all different directions. 

Simply knowing you are playing the game is a blessing in disguise that ultimately leads to increased awareness of yourself.

Self-Love: Question #5:How to play the game of self-love?

In my experience, self-love is a challenging but playful journey of self-compassion, self-worth, self-care, gratitude, courage, discipline, let-go, surrender, boundaries, balance. It’s quite an art of living away from the ordinary. It is a forgotten art. It is a game that requires playing with a different elevated level of consciousness.

I deeply contemplated my steps for playing this game after reading David Hawkins’s spectrum of consciousness levels. Then I created my own game of self-love to help trigger you.

This game is real and comes with a warning – it will transform you inside. It will elevate your consciousness. 

Take a few deep breaths and calm your mind and body. Be in the right environment of calm. Most of all, you need to permit yourself if you wish to play this game. If you are willing to play and are ready, then let us play now.

Self-Love: Question #6:Can we play the game of self-love now?

Yes. Read the steps below, and follow them carefully:

  1. The first step is to admit that we don’t know how to play this game. To surrender to the fact that there exists a more conscious solution beyond what you think. To permit to the core of your being that there is a way to play this game. This level of empowerment comes with courage – to admit that you don’t know what you don’t know. Permitting self-love is an act of courage. Then affirming, “I love myself” should be a good starting point. Hold that thought and contemplate on it. 
  2. The second step is to be willing to learn the art of self-love. To allow it to happen. Do not block it. To be teachable – to enable it to flow through you. To be willing to go beyond your limited self. To move past the ego voice of “I know” to “I am willing to know, learn and intent to trust.” Awaken to the possibility that there is indeed more to know than your limited mind can admit. Just trust, be hopeful, and feel positive in knowing that you are willing to learn. 
  3. The third step is accepting the way you are. Believe in yourself. Bring a sense of satisfaction for what you have. Move past the thoughts of lack – of what you don’t have. Contemplate on it: Just accepting the way things are – job, work, colleagues, project, relationships, life. Just be loving, kind, and forgiving to yourself. Just forget and let it be. Just be. Accept it. Just accept. Relax into the knowing. Just affirm, “I forgive others, myself and accept the way I am. I love myself just the way I am.” Accept the showers of love and let them fill you inside. The acceptance will trigger the thoughts of self-worth. 
  4. The fourth step will automatically trigger you to find reasons for what you are truly worth. Start to find the meaning in life that you have forgotten, give importance to your being. It will provide reasons for what it is like to be human: breathing, eating, seeing, and simply living. It will trigger more specific events in mind that will show your sense of self-worth in the forgotten areas of your job, talents, skills, relationships, and the subtle art of being human. Take it all in. You will start to see the beauty in your life and respect yourself. You will understand what a remarkable person you are in essence. Perhaps even wise beyond your years. Then affirm, “I am worthy of a loving, meaningful, and purpose-driven life. I am a vessel of love, light, and positivity. I am important and worthy of love.”
  5.  The fifth step is the appreciation of yourself. You have been doing this all along. Feeling grateful for what you are inside and outside. The only difference is it is effortless. It comes naturally. You know you love yourself, take care of yourself – not once in a while, not weekly, not daily, but every moment. You evolve into this state of self-love with confidence, patience, compassion, and serenity. Look at your hands, hug yourself, be grateful for a loving heart. Just affirm, ” I am a peaceful soul. I am positive. I am grateful for everything and more. I am strong. I am love. I am Joy. I am brave. I am humble. I am a winner. I surrender to the Highest Good for all.”

As you play the other games and complete your other missions in life, be sure to repeat these affirmations daily. Integrate the game of self-love with other games you play.  Here is a video I prepared for your daily affirmations. Please click to play.

Feel the self-love!

Self-Love: Question #6:When is the right time to start self-love? 

The right time is when you have slowed down the pace of life. If you are driving your car at 50 miles an hour and see an exit sign that you need to take, how do you start taking that exit? 

The first step is to slow down. Apply your brakes. Use it now. As soon as you apply your brakes now, you will start to feel more clarity and control of the direction. Similarly, as soon as you slow down in life, you will feel an increased sense of awareness of the object you need to love – that is you. 

So slow down now. Take a day off. Week off. Month off if you can afford it. Spend time with yourself now. Course-correct your thoughts with positive affirmations daily by starting today.

In Conclusion

Self-love is the innate power to love yourself deeply at all levels: mind, body, and soul. To invoke this power, you must be with yourself, find your worth, respect yourself, take care of yourself, protect yourself with boundaries, and have a balanced life. 

Doing so requires going through the deconditioning process of yourself: removing the false labels, titles, unconscious self-hate, low self-esteem, feeling not good enough, and floating in lower vibrations until you wake up and rise, recognize, and realize the process of self-love.

The five steps to play this game help you elevate your consciousness to that level of love. 

So slowing down right now, spending time with yourself now, and course-correcting your thoughts with positive affirmations daily can help you start the game of self-love today.

6 Spiritual Life Lessons and questions on Comfort Zone Evolution

“If we are always in a state of becoming, then we are always evolving . Comfort Zone Evolution means to transform and evolve by transitioning to your new comfort zone mastering the lessons from the old comfort zone.“

– Manprit Suri

I reached a point in my life when my interests at work, relationships, and career started to fade away. It felt unsatisfactory. I did not know what was going on. I realized that I felt comfortable being uncomfortable. But it sure was eating me inside. 

I soon started to realize that I was in a sort of comfort zone. I did have conflicts that I was avoiding. The more I avoided dealing with these conflicts, the more stressful life became. I kept drifting and still felt as if I was in control. I was limiting my joy and thought that I was in a state of content. It was an illusion. Do you feel this way?

Let us ask ourselves: Am I running away from conflicts at work, relationships, careers instead of solving them? Am I avoiding something such as a new job or transition to a new career so that I can always be in my comfort zone?

In this blog post, we’ll learn about:

  1. Why is it painful to be in your comfort zone?
  2. What is the definition of a comfort zone anyway?
  3. How does coaching transform your comfort zone?
  4. What are the 6 life lessons from the comfort zone?
  5. How to come out of this comfort zone? 
  6. Can we put the pieces of the ‘comfort zone puzzle’ together holistically – at a Mind, Body and Soul level?

Comfort Zone Question 1: Why is it painful to be in your comfort zone?

I was working with a client who was stressed; and binge-watching Netflix as a result. He enjoyed watching it very much. But after talking for a while, my client realized something that caused him a few breakthroughs. 

He immediately realized that he was avoiding something he always wanted to do. He was escaping from the life he wanted. He was procrastinating on the tasks and actions that he wanted to perform. But the laziness started to drown him into binge-watching Netflix. 

As the conversation moved forward, he had another breakthrough. He realized that he wanted to get up early but couldn’t. He had been sleeping late because he was watching TV until late hours. His lack or inadequate amount of sleep was another reason for stress.

Why was my client avoiding the tasks he needed to do and waking up late, sleeping late although he knew he was not going anywhere with it? Why was he repeatedly doing the same thing every day and expecting results?

The answer is that he was in his comfort zone. When we are in our comfort zone, we tend to get lazy, procrastinate, and think our life is going well. In fact, perfect. Interestingly, when we see others getting results, we then wonder why didn’t we get that?

We get what we deserve. Thinking otherwise is a form of self-delusion.  

So we tend to avoid conflicts by escaping them and watching TV, instead of doing something about them and achieve results. How can we live our lives miserably and wrongly call it a comfort zone?

Comfort Zone Question 2. What is the definition of a comfort zone anyway?

As per Wikipedia, “A comfort zone is a psychological state in which things feel familiar to a person, and they are at ease and (perceive they are) in control of their environment, experiencing low levels of anxiety and stress. In this zone, a steady level of performance is possible.” 

Above is a great practical definition as a start. But it leaves me wondering how we can remain in our comfort zone (that we worked so hard to build in our and around our life) and at the same time feel like we don’t belong to this planet? Shouldn’t we enjoy our life’s comfort zone? 

In other words, why is life feeling more and more meaningless? Why do we feel like a square in a peg hole? That we don’t want to work a 9-5 job with a haunting on-call schedule that keeps us up most of the time. Why is life becoming fast-paced, pushing us outside our comfort zone even after our many achievements? Did you signup for this type of life only?

The answer lies in the level of your awareness to your achievements, needs, and wanting for more and more. It simply never ends.

So we need to have a balance and perform better, live better. And better does not mean fast-paced but a steady-contented paced.

So what characteristics do we need to have in a nutshell:

To live a love-based purpose-driven life full of passion, meaning, work fewer hours each day, meditate better, feel balanced, content, spend enough time with our loved ones, have an abundance of finances, and live joyfully doing meaningful work that evolves our level of consciousness and raises the vibrations within us and that of this planet. 

Wow! Now that is my new definition of a comfort zone. That is our big dream or a new comfort zone we want. To reach this zone, we need to be willing to take the necessary steps to live a love-based life. 

Comfort Zone Question 3. How does coaching transform your Comfort Zone?

Spiritual Life coaches help you move out of your ‘old’ comfort zone and find a ‘new’ comfort zone. They empower you to course-correct and grow in your dream direction positively.  

When you reach a plateau in your comfort zone, you start to grow in victim consciousness. Your narcissist ego triggers a negative inner dialogue that leads to low self-esteem and self-sabotage. 

As you remain in this state for extended periods, you start to develop less trust around people and mostly with yourself. Your beliefs, attitudes, and behavior reflect negatively. You feel trapped in your self-created old comfort zone prison. What a soul-crushing life!

To break-free yourself from this old lifestyle, we have a Freedom Design coaching session. It helps with removing any roadblocks to your freedom and guides you towards attaining your goals, vision, and destination you are dreaming of with peace of mind. It is a mindset change that takes time as you are required to heal at various levels.

Comfort Zone Question 4. What are the 6 life lessons from the comfort zone?

Choosing to remain in your old comfort zone may come with a price. Here is a quick summary of the 6 lessons:

  1. Lesson #1: Ego makes you feel in control. It gives you a false sense of pride gift-wrapped in a ‘comfort’ color paper.
  2. Lesson #2: If things start to look and feel perfect without effort, it is time to change yourself.
  3. Lesson #3: Hold yourself accountable for your actions all the time. It’s your life.
  4. Lesson #4: You tend to feel comfortable being uncomfortable. It is a sign that you are not in alignment with your dharma or life purpose. It is time for a change.
  5. Lesson #5: You start to avoid conflicts, become an escapist, and are unwilling to change. It can lead to severe consequences in the form of physical and mental illnesses.
  6. Lesson #6: You start to feel bored, stressed, lazy, and out of place.

If you see such signposts, it is time to start coming out of your old comfort zone.

Comfort Zone Question 5. How to come out of this comfort zone? 

Here are some quick ways to help you move forward:

  1. Self-care: Detox your stress and fears
  2. Self-love: You are here to evolve as a soul. Love helps you evolve – Love what you do by doing what you love.
  3. Self-worth: Access your talents, skills, and be willing to grow. Remember that you are unique. No one is like you. You are priceless. 
  4. Discover yourself by doing a lot of inner work, and outer work. Find your life purpose and do what “feels” most meaningful to you.
  5. Take a hobby to the extreme – if you love journaling, try being a writer or a blogger; if you like to communicate, try being a public speaker.
  6. Explore different companies and industries for the same work.
  7. Explore different career options. 
  8. Discover your areas of passion. Find out what you are here to do on this Earth at this time of the century. Is the career conventional or unconventional? Will it matter if this was your last reincarnation on Earth?

It is a puzzle, a mystery to solve, in all honesty. Things will unfold in due time and with a lot of effort and soul searching.

Comfort Zone Question 6. Can we put the pieces of the ‘comfort zone puzzle’ together holistically – at a Mind, Body and Soul level?

There are many lessons to learn when: you are in a comfort zone, remain in your old comfort zone, or want to create a new comfort zone. The old comfort zone is a perfect place to rest and nest “against” our soul plan. 

“Old Comfort zones are puzzling as it clouds your vision, restricts you from your passion, and hampers your ability to take actions that lead you to a better and brighter future-you. It restricts your growth potential. The more you stay in your old comfort zone, the more unclear your life becomes moving forward. Try moving out of your way by removing the roadblocks that prevent you from finding your passion. Then move into your new comfort zone.”

Manprit Suri

The primary reason for our soul is to evolve. It evolves by learning life lessons – which is a bitter way to evolution. Once it reaches a tipping point, that is, when it has learned the lessons in its comfort zone, the soul wants to further evolve, instead of continuing to rest. The desire to rest is coming from the ego-mind. It doesn’t want the soul to evolve. It wants to keep it confined in that old comfort zone illusionary prison. 

When this happens, we start to lose our power since the force of our ego is in control. But you are still learning lessons on powerlessness. 

This fight between the soul and ego creates friction that causes various symptoms such as anxiety, fear, depression. It dips you in those oceans of lower vibrations. Here you learn the lessons of fear: fear of failure and fear of future causing procrastination. It is where your perfectionism lessons boil up to the surface. 

Perfectionism is a negative quality as you want a perfect life from an ego-mind which is an illusion. You cannot be confined to prison and feel good. So you cannot understand the calling of the soul. It is a mind trap. But you are learning the lesson of powerlessness, perfectionism, fear of failure, and procrastination as a result.

Your mission is to snap out of it but don’t know-how due to emotional issues, attitudes, behaviors, and limiting beliefs. Your thoughts are also prisoned and are inside a mental ego box. 

So this imprisonment backfires by creating an urge to be free. Free from all this misery. Free from these blocks. Unless these blocks are freed, you cannot look clearly at the end of the tunnel. But what is at the end of the tunnel? What do you need to be free from? 

At the end of the tunnel is your soul – waiting for you to come out of your old comfort zone. It is calling you. To answer the calling of your soul, you follow the bread crumbs that it has already placed before. What are those bread crumbs?

When you reach the tipping point in your life, your feelings of meaninglessness and loss are one of the many first steps.

When you start to reason why this is happening, it is your next step.

Willing to finding answers to how am I and why am I here, what’s my passion, my purpose, and how I can achieve my big dreams; the next.

The purpose behind coaching is to pull you out and clear of your tunnel and free it from the mental, social, and belief factors. It is the process of inner healing and emptying the cup. Doing so helps you see your vision clearly, and navigate the muddy waters of your life that became polluted while learning the various life lessons. 

It is a cleansing stage – where you start to increase your spiritual awareness and awaken spiritually. To trust the universe more, become bolder, and break free from unwanted conditioned desires.  

As you break free, you realize the game of life more clearly. You start to integrate the various spiritual lessons of letting go, trust, gratitude, being an authentic version of yourself, and continue to the high road like a hero, warrior, or an awakened person.

By this time, if you are trying to find a perfect time, date, place, career, then you’ll realize that nothing is perfect here now. You are to again move into a job for a short while, learn some lessons and then find new ones. But this play starts to become a little boring as an old soul. 

So you want to quit this world with a bang by being famous or even being of service to others. Whatever satisfies your soul. So you may start to teach people from your wisdom. 

One may start to coach others on navigating their life better – who are struggling in this 3-dimensional world. Perhaps teach how to do things that they love and are passionate with. You come out of your old comfort zone closet and move into your growing new comfort zone!

If you are in your same zone for some time, there is no willingness to move out of it due to resistance. It is because of the fear of failure and the thoughts that life is perfect when it is not. You are simply less willing to move forward in life. It is mere laziness. 

So does moving forward means more title and power? Moving forward does not mean more title and power. That should never be an aim as it is an ego playground with its sweet rewards.  

But if you are doing something out of love, passion, and compassion, then the success, titles, and fame runs after you. And, that’s the way to roll. It is the stage where you are in service to humanity and for the highest good for all. It is a reward from the higher consciousness and universal consciousness. 

Being of service is the highest form of achievement. Soul growth and evolution do not reside in the old comfort zone but a ‘new’ comfort zone.

In Conclusion

There is no conclusion to this ever-evolving and puzzling comfort zone riddle. If you feel uncomfortable being in an old comfort zone, then it’s time to move out of your fear-based life. To move into a love-based life, a new comfort zone is the next step.

If you feel comfortable being in a new comfort zone, stay there and willingly enjoy learning, reasoning, and fulfilling your big dreams, goals, and being of service to the highest good for all. Therein lies the answer to your passion and desire for a meaningful, purpose-driven love-based life. Live comfortably with a growth mindset.

The main purpose of this website is for you to live a love-based life and evolve your soul’s comfort zone. Please check out the service page and opt for FULL SPECTRUM coaching!

Life in the 3 dimensional world

Sometime back during lunch hours at work, an intense feeling of discontent gave way to many questions in my mind in a haphazard manner – to find conscious connections. One went like this: what is meant by the 3-dimensional world? Why was life becoming more and more meaningless? Why is there a feeling of loneliness and being stuck?

During the spiritual awakening stages, I started to write this post connecting the dots between many aspects related to dimensions, social conditioning, limiting beliefs, and spiritual life coaches. So this post delves into: 

  1. What is the 3-dimensional world?
  2. Why are we stuck here?
  3. How are we stuck here?
  4. How do we get unstuck from here?
  5. How do spiritual life coaches and healers help you with your limited beliefs in this dimension and direction?

3-dimensional world: Question 1: What is the 3-dimensional world?

We live in a 3-dimensional world, and this human suit is the portal to the 3-dimensional consciousness. We perceive this 3-dimensional world with our five sense perceptions.

We wear different suits to gain different experiences and life lessons so that our souls can evolve spiritually. But we have a sort of longing, a nagging feeling, to go back home without knowing where the home is at this dimension of existence. So we are now getting bored and feel stuck. 

3-dimensional world: Question 2: Why are we stuck here?

After eons of being on this planet and switching different suits, again and again, we have come to realize that we are living an illusionary life – a 3-dimensional prison with no escape.  

Especially during this time of the century, we are growing in anxiety, fear, and depression. We are living in lower vibrations. 

We feel like we want to do something big. We are trying to find our soul’s purpose because life feels meaningless. 

We are tired of this 9-5 work life. But instead of finding the cause of this misery, we try to escape it by working more hours, to get more money, to get more famous, to get richer, to get higher titles, to get more powerful, bigger houses, more expensive cars, and more of everything. 

Eventually, we land up nowhere and feel more misery and stuck in soul-crushing careers and lifestyles. How do we get stuck – at least in this life?

3-dimensional world: Question 3:How are we stuck here?

Being stuck is the crux of the problem we are tiring to understand but get blind-sighted. Instead of learning from our lessons and trying not to react to them, we start to enjoy this illusionary 3-dimensional world using our five senses. Why illusionary? 

From birth, we are a certain way or act a certain way, look a certain way. Your persona wants to be called Joe, for instance, at birth. This Joe plays a role like a computer scientist, for example. Has he attained everything if he is filthy rich, higher titled but has lost his peace of mind? No. Because the mind is a bottomless well of materialistic desires guided by the 5 senses. So what should he do? He must listen to the voice of the soul, not the senses. 

This “soul” is playing the part of Joe, who thinks like Joe based on social conditioning from birth, then further develops limited beliefs based on his occupation as a scientist. He keeps on running after material success and progress believing it will free him. That is not freeing but getting stuck in a quicksand scenario.

As a soul, we limit ourselves as a character who plays a specific role. Based on the upbringing, the character accumulates many unlimited limited thoughts that create his limited belief system. So now this soul is in a limited 3-dimensional world playing a specific limited character role, with a limited belief system.  

As time progresses, the character keeps limiting itself to the point that it starts to feel burnout. This burnout is the trigger that helps kick start the journey into the unknown in search of the true self. It is the “knowing” or calling that we tend to respond to by following the signs from the universe.  

So when we start to realize that we are stuck with our limiting thoughts, beliefs, and emotions that caused stress, anxiety, and depression, we start asking the deeper spiritual questions: who am I, why am I here, what is my purpose? The first step is indeed to wake up now from this illusion created in this 3-dimensional world.

3-dimensional world: Question 4:How do we get unstuck from here?

The answer is simple. We get unstuck from here using this human suit (again). The difference is that instead of using our 5 senses to the fullest, we start to do the opposite. We start to see inside, hear inside, and most of all heal inside. 

Yes! Now, to wake up, we need to heal the wounds (inside) caused by our limited beliefs from eons of lifetimes. Many people are already doing that. 

In addition to mediation which helps you connect with your higher self, source, God; we need deep inner work. 

The inner work is a serious business and requires courage, effort, discipline, and determination. It requires the willingness to heal yourself. It is a deep process that takes time and is for the hero-hearted. It is not woo-doo magic just because it is not casually or commonly spoken. It is healing for your mind, body, and soul to experience total transformation inside and out.

Photo by Pixabay on Pexels.com

It is comparable to lifting (healing) the weights (limited belief) put on a needle (soul). When the karmic ego-weights are removed one-by-one, (day after day, week after week, month after month, and even year after year), from the needle (soul) it is then attracted to the magnet (Source). The attraction process is the letting go, true surrender, and submitting to the highest good for all. 

3-dimensional world: Question 5:How do spiritual life coaches and healers help you with your limited beliefs in this dimension and direction?

Spiritual life coaches and healers help lift those weights of limiting beliefs accumulated in this 3-dimensional world. They act as a catalyst for your change before, during, and after your awakening. Most people are unaware of and are lost. But many are waking up.

In Conclusion

We live in a 3-dimensional world, and this human suit is the portal to the 3-dimensional consciousness. We are limited beings in this world playing a specific limited character role, with a limited belief system due to social conditioning. As time progresses, the limitations cause burnout; and we start to wake up to the reality of this dimension. 

In addition to meditation, we need deep inner work to heal us from this burnout. Spiritual life coaches help lift those weights of limiting beliefs accumulated in this 3-dimensional world. It is the healing for your mind, body, and soul to experience total transformation inside and out.

6 Spiritual Lessons on Perfectionism

All old souls are struggling with the spiritual lesson of perfectionism. All Virgos are said to be a perfectionist. Starseeds, Lightworkers, INFJs, and even Enneagram type I are all said to be perfectionists.

I have always tried to be perfect in everything. I always felt a sense of pride in calling myself a perfectionist.

I wondered if: I should be earning this certification in 3 years? I should be in this career or be promoted in 1 year? I should have an A or a 100 score in a game?

I further thought: can I live a more meaningful, balanced, and peaceful life now and not hurry with unrealistic timeframes?

I was starting to realize that I was running after material things and creating lower vibrations of fear, guilt, shame, and procrastination. I was awakening to realize that I was learning to understand my imperfections rather than being perfect.

Furthermore, what I thought to be “my” perfect timings with things whether it be events, projects or incidents were synchronicities in my destiny.

Upon shifting my perspective on what a perfect life entails, I had an awakening to a different meaning of perfectionism. This post has my 6 spiritual lessons on perfectionism:

  1. Enjoying the journey of being human
  2. Self-Love and Compassion
  3. Surrender to the flow
  4. Be willing and forgiving
  5. Realizing repeated patterns of imperfections
  6. Waking up to the purpose of human life

Spiritual lesson on Perfectionism #1: Enjoying the journey of being human

It is good to have goals. It is great to have a vision board to accomplish those goals.

But our goal or destination is not the only thing important. It is the journey that is more important. 

Destination in this case is in being a perfect human being or being the best-awakened version of yourself.

The journey, however, involves learning more life lessons to achieve that level of perfection. What more life lessons do we learn during the journey of being a perfect soul? 

Spiritual Lesson on Perfectionism #2: Self-Love and Compassion

Compassion means loving ourselves when we are unable to achieve a certain task or even get to the goal at times. Self-compassion is a way to speak to our soul and connect with our inner guidance during difficult times of our lives. 

With compassion for ourselves, we cultivate a power full of love. This strengthens and helps us put in more effort without feeling defeated or depressed. This in turn gives way to the inner strength that fuels our vision towards success.

All the more, you feel an energetic push from the divine in the form of grace. 

When I felt a lot of negative emotions, I used to play the blame game towards my circumstances, people, and environment. To top it off, I then waited for His grace to fall on my lap.

This was an imperfect way of fighting the ego-mind. Why? A more loving heart full of compassion for yourself is required to extinguish the fire of negativity.

With self-love and compassion, you become a reservoir for His grace and the equation becomes perfect!

Spiritual Lesson on Perfectionism #3: Surrender to the flow

The problems in our lives start to occur when we start to resist. When we need more help and guidance, we need to put in our best effort and then open our arms and surrender to the flow of events. 

Instead, we resist by putting our minds into a negative thought pattern. How? By saying, “we cannot make it to the finish line” or “we don’t deserve this” or something along these lines. We start to develop victim consciousness.

Passing negative judgments about ourselves is comparable to closing our arms and stopping ourselves from receiving the divine grace and everything else that comes along with it in the form of blessings, resources, support, help, and everything positive. 

When we truly learn the art of surrender, the universe brings a lot of abundance and wealth into our lives. This system of giving from the universe is perfect only if you stop resisting and truly surrender.

Spiritual Lesson on Perfectionism #4: Be willing and forgiving

So what should be the first step? Be willing. Be willing to be willing. Be willing to receive from the universe all the resources, support, and divine grace. How can one be willing to do so? 

The answer is forgiveness. Forgive yourself if you cannot attain a goal and or failed miserably. Just learn to forgive yourself for the failures. Just be willing to learn from them and move on. 

When I failed in my endeavors, I would simply shrink inside with some sort of guilt for not being perfect. After I started forgiving myself by repeating positive affirmations and saying to myself: I am a perfect soul and I am love; I started to have a breakthrough.

This gave me hope and willpower to forgive, forget and move forward in life. So be willing to forgive yourself and move on. 

Perhaps it was not meant to happen and for good reasons. It is important what you learned from it. Perhaps, assess the skill level, knowledge level, time duration, intention, attention, and resources required to accomplish that goal.

Just course correct and find another goal and move on. Stop saying that you are not worth it or not perfect.

Think of it as a great learning lesson for the next time. Willingly accept defeat only to rise again to try again with fewer imperfections than before!

Spiritual Lesson on Perfectionism #5: Realizing repeated patterns of imperfections

If you see repeated patterns of failure, then there is a possibility that success is not a requirement. But the journey you are traveling is – an important lesson I easily missed in my life before!

You may be required to go through this journey and the lesson was not to be perfect but to see what happens when you are trying to be imperfect. 

When we are in a repeated pattern of failure, we are simply being allowed to learn those lessons that we are trying to master in this life. It is a mark of a courageous soul on its Hero’s journey.

So if you learned all the lessons from experiencing what it feels to be in an imperfect journey, then you have completely perfected your lesson! 

Spiritual Lesson on Perfectionism #6: Waking up to the purpose of human life

The purpose of human life is to expand our level of consciousness through different life lessons and merge back to the universal consciousness.

If we were perfect, we wouldn’t be growing consciously and spiritually through these life lessons. So we are on a perfectly imperfect journey.

To wake up to your highest purpose in life involves waking up your soul. Waking up spiritually.

Spiritual awakening can occur when you have a high probability of perfecting your lessons in your lowest vibrational frequencies. 

By perfectly hitting your consciousness from rock bottom or ground zero, you’ll experience a quantum shift and leap in your level of consciousness to new heights.

It is a perfectly orchestrated lesson plan by the Source to bring us back to our true home – the land of a perfectionist.

In Conclusion

Being a perfectionist does not involve running after material things that inflate our ego and force us to create lower vibrations of fear, guilt, shame, and procrastination.

A perfectionist being is one who is the best-awakened version of himself.

This requires learning 6 spiritual lessons: understanding how to enjoy the journey of being human, cultivating within a power full of self-love and compassion to become the reservoir of His grace, learning to stop resisting and truly surrender, willing to forgive oneself and move on, courageously recognizing your repeated patterns of imperfections and spiritually waking up to recognize the purpose of human life. 

Traveling through this Hero’s journey, a perfectly orchestrated lesson plan by the Source to bring us back to our true home – the land of a perfectionist, is the mark and work of a perfect, loving, and courageous soul! You!

5 Questions on Synchronicity: Universe’s real time alert notification

I have been seeing numerous synchronicities lately. Synchronicities occur outside at a physical level and are visible to our naked eye. Several synchronicities are happening around us if we are willing to pay attention. But what is it conceptually, to begin with?

The 5 questions on synchronicity that we’ll delve into are: What is synchronicity? Why are we receiving synchronicity or signs? Are they helpful and should we follow them? What was my experience with synchronicities? What if we don’t pay attention to them?

Synchronicity Question #1: What is synchronicity? 

Carl Jung, a famous psychologist, coined the term synchronicity. It implies meaningful coincidences. When two unrelated incidences are in sync. For instance, you open a fortune cookie. The note in that cookie gives you the answer to the question you have been looking for in life.

I like to define it as a real-time notification or a sign from the universe given at the time it is needed the most. However, the meaning of the sign is waiting to be figured out by the observer.

There are numerous ways the universe sends us real-time alerts to communicate with us. These are in the form of repeated occurrences of specific angel number patterns (8, 11:11, 4:44, etc.), objects (feathers, coins), animals (squirrels, butterflies), etc.

Synchronicity Question #2: Why are we receiving synchronicity or signs? 

The primary purpose for receiving any signs from higher powers is to make our lives easier, give us direction and assurance that we are being divinely guided in life.

Synchronicities are powerful blessings manifested in the physical form to increase our faith and awareness of the divine. Blessed are those who receive it as they will find comfort.

Synchronicity Question #3: Are they helpful and should we follow them?

Well! It is critical to keep in mind that synchronicities are telling us and helps us to surrender to the flow of events.

It creates a sense of trust and conveys the message that everything is happing for a good reason. This removes much of our worries, fears of the unknown, and leads to ultimate submission with gratitude.

Synchronicity Question #4: What was my experience with synchronicities?

During my career shift and spiritual awakening journey, I have come to witness firsthand the wonderful synchronicity with numbers, feathers, and animals. 

  • I repeatedly saw the number 8 in my dreams, license plates and phone numbers during a critical stage in my career when the mind keep thinking negatively and just wouldn’t stop. The fear was due to losing my job, money, and health. 

Angel number eight signified the end of negativity, receiving infinite financial abundance and rewards. Around that timeframe, I moved to a new firm, received a significant increase in my salary, and had excellent health. I had started yogic exercises and lost 10 pounds.

I later used this sign as the logo for this website: 8 and infinity in sync.

  • I have been seeing 11:11 on the car clock when it is time to leave my job. 

This signifies that I am on the right path. So I’m surrendering to the flow of events.

  • Seeing squirrel repeatedly outside my house.

This animal totem is a symbol of new life, hard work, abundance, preparedness, and better days ahead. It is coming when I have lost my job and am planning new beginnings and a new career for myself.

  • Seeing white butterflies around the house.

This is a symbol of transformation, metamorphosis, and inspiration to change. It is coming during the awakening process so there is synchronicity and sign from the universe working in tandem with the events in my life. 

Synchronicity Question #5: What if we don’t pay attention to them?

Honestly, the signs will start to disappear slowly. The universe seizes to send such alerts as our thoughts don’t attract them. It is an emotional help and divine guidance that you can ignore as part of your free will.

However, if you are feeling down, then these signs do help raise your vibrations.

So when you do see these signs in the passing, acknowledge, appreciate and thank the universe for the real-time alert notification at play.

In Conclusion

Several synchronicities and real time alert notifications are all around us if we are willing to pay attention. These are in the form of repeated occurrences of specific angel number patterns (8, 11:11, 4:44, etc.), objects (feathers, coins), animals (squirrels, butterflies), etc.

The primary purpose for receiving any such signs from higher powers is to make our lives easier, give us direction and assurance that we are being divinely guided in life. It is an emotional help and divine guidance that you can ignore as part of your free will. However, if you are feeling down, then these signs do help raise your vibrations.

Should I leave my job during Spiritual Awakening?

Should I leave my job during a spiritual awakening? This has been one nagging question that I had been seeking an answer to during the awakening process. So what my intuitive voice wants to create is this blog that shares my story, opinions, and some suggestions.

Simply put, the engineering of the awakening process blended with the cry for a career change is a divinely created and very gradually unfolding process.

We’ll answer these 5 questions related to job during spiritual awakening: Why is it important to know about the link between career and spiritual awakening? Why do we feel lost, miserable and confused in life and career during awakening? How has it affected my life? What are some of the ways you can make the career journey easier? What happens if you don’t follow these steps? Bonus: Quick Intuitive exercise.

There is a very important link between career and spiritual awakening. If you have felt miserable, lost, and misaligned at work for a few years, your awakening is to bring you to the lowest tipping point in your career. It is here to gradually show you what your purpose for reincarnation in this lifetime is during this century.

You have been in a soul-crushing job and you may have been stagnant for quite some time too. Awakening will rip you apart and show you what you really, really, really want. It is taking you to the ultimate state of peace in due time. Some of us here have come with a mission of higher purpose and the time to do so is soon approaching.

Job during Spiritual Awakening Question #2: Why do we feel lost, miserable and confused in life and career during awakening? 

Our past/current career is the primary work that we choose to do when we were on autopilot. Why feel lost and miserable now? It is because you are waking up from this three-dimensional density – from this autopilot mode. And moving to a higher dimensional density and will soon find that it is now time to follow your soul’s blueprint.

If you find out and know you are an old soul, INFJ, Starseed, Lightworker, or any of these labels, you may realize that you have heavy karma and feel like you don’t belong here. You feel out of place and very sensitive because you may be ascending to higher dimensions.

Job during Spiritual Awakening Question #3: How has it affected my life?

I have always been in a Corporate setting for the past 18 years. During 2020, I was confused, frustrated, and did not know what was going on with me for quite a while. Life and work felt meaningless, completely distasteful to the extent that I wanted to leave my job. But something even worse happened.

During the time of COVID, a colleague of mine left the team. His work was transferred to me.

I had to learn the newly assigned work that I was transitioned to. I did not like it a bit. I was very overstressed and overwhelmed as it started to eat away my soul, my time with family, and was draining my energy levels.

After a few months of working, I met with a life-threatening accident. This led me to be on disability leave for a few months. It took me away from the overwhelmed and overworked atmosphere at work to complete rest. But the road to recovery took a while.

Although I joined work shortly after, I was still in recovery mode.

After a couple of months of work, my position was eliminated as a result of firmwide company downsizing.

So the flow of life events are beautifully engineered and sometimes hard to predict!

Job during Spiritual Awakening Question #4: What are some of the ways you can make the career journey easier? 

  • Surrender to the flow of events: When you hold the sand in your hand too tight, it will flow out quickly. When you surrender to the flow of events and do not hold it by thinking about them too much, those events will come to pass quickly. Practice being a detached observer helps.

Surrender to the fact that a new job or career is coming and will require karmic arrangements. Everyone’s karmas need to be balanced. I wrote a new post on surrendering that will be helpful in your journey of awakening. Click here.

  • Let go of your disturbing thoughts: If you want to let go of your stress, then let go of those thoughts by acknowledging what is happening to you. Locate it in your body system within. Then release it and let it go. Don’t hold it. Just release it. True surrender will flow.
  • Self-Love: If someone is hurt, would it help to give him more pain or cure him instead? Of course, cure him. Now, what if that someone is you. You are in a transparent career-related pain. When we are in pain inside, it is best to have compassion and love for ourselves. So gently stroke your hand on your heart and say, ‘It’s okay. I love myself.’ Then feel the magic unfold and you’ll feel grateful. Click here to play the game of self-love.

  • Gratitude: Gratitude is the art of thanking the creator for what you have. Look at the positive side. If you are having all sorts of career traumas and troubles, you are still having a salary coming in even now. It is sustaining your family, your home, your car, and all basic needs for your survival. Thanking for what you have creates abundance. Click here to read how gratitude changed my life.

Thank the Source in advance for slowly moving you to a job and career that lights you up. Thank the Source for a blessed future career that gives you time for yourself and your family in abundance. Remember, our positive and grateful thoughts during the contemplation process will create what is yet to come with ease, grace, and abundance. A powerful gratitude vision is a great way to anchor yourself in the present moment and expand that moment.

  • Being in the present moment: I admit this one is the toughest one to follow. But grounding outside and within is the most beneficial way. If you are in an office setting or working from home, take frequent walks outside.

Grounding is a method used to free yourself from negative feelings in an instant. A 20-minute walk outside will help you a great deal. Also, look for various grounding exercises online to still your mind within. Increased awareness of your body and immediate surroundings is a great way to ground yourself to the present.

  • Stop suppressing what you love: What I learned is that, instead of suppressing your fears at work, express them to your manager and let them go. Tell him I’ll like to do a different kind of work. Talk it out. Vent it out.

If you feel miserable at work, it is a good sign from the universe that changes are coming and are indeed needed for the greater good. Don’t wait for perfect timing. Just do it. Now. Don’t worry about results. Do it in good faith. At this time, it is also a good idea to have intentions and vision a brighter future. Click here to read my experience with the future vision.

Job during Spiritual Awakening Question #5: What happens if you don’t follow these steps?

You’ll simply continue to feel miserable. You will not feel compassionate towards yourself. In absence of self-love, you will attract lower vibrations that will cause your fear to build up.

This may lead to mental illnesses such as memory loss and suicidal thoughts. When left uncontrolled and unaddressed, will lead to physical issues.

Wait but what is happening at a spiritual level? We are being divinely guided. But we must learn to listen and pick up signs from the universe.

When you are suffering in lower vibrations such as fear, guilt, shame at work; and all the more suppressing it to quite an extent, instead of sharing and addressing it, then these emotions and feelings manifest in the physical density as accidents. I learned my lesson.

This is a way for your higher self to talk to you and give you signs and divert your attention towards taking meaningful actions that align with your soul plan.

So should you quit your job? Ultimately, a leap of faith is required and inner guidance is the best way to proceed. Don’t be afraid to take bold steps whether you are in your 20s, 30s, or 40s.

Bonus: Quick Intuitive exercise

  1. Simply remove all the clocks, watches, ticks, and talks from your room.
  2. Sit in a trance state such as lying down with your eyes closed.
  3. Repeat this several times and for several weeks to listen to yourself inside. 
  4. If something you hear feels good and there is no fear, then it is the voice of your soul that you need to follow. It will create an incredible current within you that will flow like electricity.
  5. If something you hear feels good but there is fear, it will mostly state that you should not do something because you will be in trouble. It will try to keep you safe and corner you in a space inside of you. If you feel safe but fearful, that thought is not the right direction. 

Infinity blessings, success, abundance, and careers that light you up are coming your way.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the engineering of the awakening process blended with the cry for a career change is a divinely created and very gradually unfolding process. You feel out of place and very sensitive because you may be ascending to higher dimensions.

It is very important to surrender to the flow of events, let go of your disturbing thoughts, exercise self-love and compassion, have an attitude of gratitude, be in the present moment, and stop suppressing what you love.

Listen to your inner guidance for what it has to say. Then, taking a bold leap of faith is the best way to proceed.

5 Spiritual Awakening Questions – WHAT, WHY, WHO, WHEN, WHERE?

Sharing our own transformational experiences of awakening helps guide the journey of our lives and those of others. I have gathered 5 inspiring, thought-provoking, and important questions in my journey. These questions are in the form of What, Why, Who, Where, and When of spiritual awakening.

I’ll be sharing my wisdom by awakening you to: What is Spiritual awakening? Why does our soul awaken? Who are you when you awaken? When does spiritual awakening happen? Where is the awakening happening?

Photo by Pixabay on Pexels.com

Spiritual Awakening Question #1 – WHAT: What is Spiritual awakening? 

Spiritual awakening is a process whereby our soul starts to awaken. It searches for a deeper meaning to life and its purpose.

It is a transformation that tends to take place internally and changes you inside and out. One example is of a caterpillar that transforms and grows into a butterfly. In other words, it is a complete change over from an old version of you to a newer version of you.

During the process, it is a feeling that puts your old you in a state of unrest as if something is missing, and in turn, makes you feel that life on earth is meaningless. I felt as if someone else, not me, was trapped in this body and wanted to be liberated. As we slowly awaken internally, we realize our soul’s true calling and purpose.

Spiritual Awakening Question #2- WHY: Why does our soul awaken?

Why does anyone want to wake up? We have set aside some tasks at a spiritual level that we want to complete. This is similar to your to-do list in your life on autopilot. You may have a to-do list of items to complete that now needs to manifest at a physical level.

What is your to-do list? This is where a question of what is my purpose of reincarnation as a human in this life? I tend to ask: Why am I here at this time of the century on this planet?

The answer is mostly related to a higher purpose and being of service to others. Doing this service in actuality helps raise your own vibrations and the vibrations of the planet.

Spiritual Awakening Question #3- WHO:  Who are you when you awaken?

The question of who am I starts to emerge in your mind? I know I am a human being during autopilot mode. But you begin to realize that you are more to being a human.

In essence, there is some mental disagreement and dissatisfaction in knowing that we are human. Perhaps you may find out by following the signs from the universe (in the form of objects, books, internet searches, or even other beings) that you are an alien in a human form to help save humanity.

In fact, the point is you start to search for yourself restlessly. This is a time to reflect on yourself. That leads to loving yourself more. In turn, realizing yourself. Your true self.

You are actually a spiritual light being wearing a human suit going through life lessons courageously. It is a realization and a belief that gets stronger over time. You eventually awaken to who you really are inside.

Spiritual Awakening Question #4- WHEN:  When does spiritual awakening happen?

The question of when spiritual awakening happens is very critical and worth knowing. When you reach your lowest point in life, it is then that your spiritual awakening is set to trigger as per the divine design.

The lowest points are your greatest teachers. The lowest points in life may include any or all of the following happening simultaneously: total career dissatisfaction, the serious life-threatening illness of your loved one and or even yourself, the death of a family member or relative, failing in exams/tests/certifications, passed on for promotions, toxic work relationships or toxic family relationships.

It is also possible that you may get hints from the universe that your reincarnation cycle is nearing its end. It is not feasible to calculate this until your last breath. But you will see some difference in the form of lost friendships, family members, relatives, or other types of relationships simply moving away from you.

What’s worse is, you may not know you are going through an awakening until you have reached the tail end of it. This is a gradual process that takes years to realize that you are actually going through one.

Spiritual Awakening Question #5- WHERE: Where is the awakening happening? 

Just like you wake up from a dream and the dream is nowhere outside, all the awakening symptoms are invisible and going on inside of you. Several symptoms include: feeling lost, anxiety, depression, fear of the unknown even during the times when things are just fine.

You start to feel different inside. Your vision becomes more clear as you tend to use your soul’s eye or the third eye. The truth and knowledge of this world start to open. You start to see life lessons more clearly inside. You stop judging people; start to locate your true feelings inside, and begin to surrender and let go.

You also see yourself as the divine and see divinity in all things. You wake up to what is real and live in the moment. You get a glimpse of your dharma, duty and your life purpose inside that starts to reflect in your attitude outside.

Conclusion

We learned about the What, Why, Who, Where, and When of spiritual awakening. Spiritual awakening is an internal soul transformation that changes you inside and out. It is a gradual process that takes years to realize that you are actually going through one. You are actually a spiritual light being wearing a human suit going through life lessons courageously.

You get a glimpse of your dharma, duty and your life purpose inside that starts to reflect in your attitude outside. You realize that you have a higher purpose – being of service to others. Doing this service in actuality helps raise your own vibrations and the vibrations of the planet.

3 Checks and Change: Examine Your Life For Lessons Now

“In the end, only three things matter: how much you loved, how gently you lived, and how gracefully you let go of things not meant for you.”

The Buddha

Let us examine our life now. We are rapidly progressing more and more in all areas of advancements – big computerized houses, robots, robotic process automation, artificial intelligence, auto-driven cars, etc.

But then we are also growing in dis-eases with challenging mindsets, exceedingly high egos, mindless attitudes, overwhelming comparisons, thankless attitudes and so on.

Quest for more is not quenched even during the final days as advanced booking for the most desired funeral is opted for to show-off a very fancy style death.

The person at the death bed is choosing to sleep in his coffin with a gold chain and ample of gold coins in his hands in the hopes of taking that precious hard-earned worth to play with after death. It is still time to perform 3 checks and change in your life!

Check and Change #1: Examine your life

We are accumulating infinite worth to live a finite number of breaths. Simply put, we don’t need that much. Do you see the lesson here? A perfect example is of a King named Alexander the Great. He won all the battles and all the riches of his lifetime. But eventually felt all this to be meaningless.

So he wanted to show the world that there is no need or end to this craving. After his death, his both hands were empty, outside the coffin to teach us a lesson that you will eventually leave empty-handed.

That was then and this is now – where people are still in hopes and are still living mindlessly and organizing fancy deaths. So spiritual lesson is of desire for more but what are we trying to achieve eventually?

Check and Change #2: More is less and less is more

What are we trying to achieve? Happiness? If you are not happy now, then you will not be happy later. Besides, with some material gains, we can be happy now but that momently happiness or excitement will leave you empty after a short period of time. This applies to all areas of life: wealth, health, relationships, and career.

What we are trying to achieve is a state of peace and contentment. That state of being. Just being in that present moment. Being able to do more with less.

According to Pareto’s 80/20 principle, we just need that 20% of things in life that will give us 80% of that state of peace and contentment. We are currently running after 80% of things that are giving us only 20% of satisfaction. In turn, causing all sorts of energy drainage in the form of depression, anxiety, fear of all sorts.

Check and Change #3: Energy drainage is a dis-ease with a message

We are running our lives in a state of dis-ease instead of ease. It is a state of mental disorder. We have become more depressed which is a sign from the universe at an emotional level.

This is a form of negative energy that is invading your aura to teach you something. It is a lower level vibration that is trying to say something to you. There is a hidden encrypted message.

If you are trying to achieve something in life and you are not able to, then you may keep trying. But if you are seeing a repeated pattern of failure and getting deeply depressed, then witness it as the first step and understand that some change is required.

People are instead turning towards change to end their life and commit suicide. It is a time to step-up but in a different direction. Use your free-will instead of exiting from your free-will. Examine your life.

Perhaps, your soul is growing exceedingly and your material mind is not able to catch up or accept this change or simply not decipher this encrypted message.

Are you willing to change? Are you willing to witness these alerts from the universe? Are you willing to read what the message contains for you? Reflecting on these questions will help you put your mind from a mindless to a mindful state of existence.

CONCLUSION

Examine your life now. Check to see if it requires change. Check and change your habit by applying Pareto’s 80/20 principle. Find the message in those areas that are causing your energy to drain. Reflect on the three checks and change in every way and every day.

12 Spiritual Life Lessons For Soul Growth

“You know you have mastered a soul lesson when the circumstance has not changed, but the way you respond has. This is true energy self mastery.”

Vibrational Medicine

Our soul grows spiritually by exploring numerous life lessons one after another. Day in and day out you are challenging yourself unconsciously to grow. But are you aware of these life lessons?

Soul growth comes from learning, applying, changing; and then questioning why we are doing what we are doing. When we start to question our own life, its purpose, environment, relationships, careers, circumstances, the very stories we are living, then we start to awaken spiritually.

Spiritual Awakening is a very gradual process and occurs when you understand what lessons you are learning and pass those tests in life. Your worst triggers are your best lessons in life. Every pain is here to teach you a lesson. I have posted some additional lessons here. Should I leave my job during Spiritual Awakening? and 5 Questions on Synchronicity: Universe’s real-time alert notification

As an example, if you are stuck in your comfort zone or the daily grind, then the lesson is to assert your courage, willpower, and enthusiasm to come out of it. Do not repress your feelings due to fear of change. The lesson is to gain mastery and evolve by taking that leap of faith, taking that bold “first step” to move past that hurdle. Whether it is feeling stuck in a limited belief pattern related to career, relationships, money, personality, environment, or any arena of life you choose to play the game and learn lessons from in your human suit!

Ask yourself each time: what spiritual lesson my soul is learning from the specific circumstance I’m in. Try answering these questions below as food for thought. These 12 spiritual life lesson questions for soul growth will help as a start.

Spiritual Life Lesson #1: Perfectionism

Am I trying to be perfect? I should be earning this certification in 3 years? I should be in this career or be promoted in 1 year? I should have an A or a 100 score in a game? Can you forgive yourself if you are unable to achieve perfection? Can you live a more meaningful, balanced, and peaceful life now and not hurry with unrealistic timeframes?

Spiritual Life lesson #2: Avoiding conflicts

Am I running away from conflicts at work, relationships, careers instead of solving them? Am I avoiding something such as a new job or transition to a new career so that I can always be in my comfort zone? Facing your worse fears can teach you much more than running away from them. Step out of your comfort zone and do something non-career related to start with.

Spiritual Life Lesson #3: Worrying about your image

Am I tall, short, thin, fat, beautiful, ugly, pretty, handsome, rich, poor? Am I INFJ or other MBTI type, Old soul, Wanderer, HSP or highly sensitive person, Empath? Am I having any limiting beliefs about myself inside or out? Am I an image worrier! Talk yourself into appreciating yourself often. Love yourself. You were, are, and will be what you fear most. Stop worrying and enjoy the human journey.

Spiritual Life Lesson #4: Let go, surrender, contentment, peace, and love

Am I holding onto something like a desire, thought, resentment, regret, emotion, or a physical object? Am I content, peaceful, and loving my life right now? The more you start loving something or someone, the more you will start letting it go. To find contentment and peace, just surrender and watch how the magical event unfolds.

Spiritual Life Lesson #5: I’m not worthy or good enough

Am I not worthy of being rich? Am I not worthy of that promotion? Am I not good enough to be receiving abundance in the form of love, relationships, health, wealth? Being worthy is a choice that needs an inner voice. Your inner voice. Think and you will be worthy and it is good enough.

Spiritual Life Lesson #6: Rich people are bad people

Am I limiting my belief that rich people are inherently bad and I should therefore not be rich? Am I limiting my belief that money is bad? Money is a neutral tool. Utilize money in doing good deeds, open a charity or donation center, and simply be a good human being. Many rich people do that.

Spiritual Life Lesson #7: Comparison

Am I comparing myself to someone or something? Am I buying something just because another person has it? Am I comparing myself with my colleagues and or friends? Am I as successful as my neighbor?

Comparison creates shame, guilt, fear, depression, anxiety, stress, and possible death of your self-love inside or a loved one outside. 

Mindless comparison never ends until you end it. It brings you down to a negative and the lowest level of human consciousness.

Just remember that you are a unique eternal soul on a unique journey with a unique set of karmas. You came to earth school with enough life lessons to learn of your own. Just remember to do your classwork or homework without copying or comparing other’s work. 

Spiritual Life Lesson #8: Analysis Paralysis

Am I analyzing too many thoughts and going nowhere? Am I analyzing too many situations and not able to come up with a solution leading to not being able to meet any goals in a few days, months, or even years? When you are unable to stop overwhelming thoughts, just take a breather.

Spiritual Life Lesson #9: Learning to receive or give

Am I willing to receive as much as I’m willing to give and vice-versa? Am I stopping myself and blocking my success when the universe is giving me in abundance? There will be times when your good deeds will come to an end, and the bad ones too. Sometimes it is hard to give but it is equally hard to receive if you are being too humble. Be willing to accept the abundance that is coming your way.

Spiritual Life Lesson #10: Gratitude

Am I thanking enough and daily? Am I giving enough credit to myself and the source for all the good that is happening around me? An attitude of gratitude brings love, compassion, contentment, and peace by slowly eliminating anxiety, fear of the unknown, depression, comparison and analysis/paralysis.

In turn, gratitude brings your mind to a state of being – in the present moment – one of the most powerful states to operate at this physical three-dimensional density. Just be willing to give thanks and you will witness wonders.

Spiritual Life Lesson #11: Depression, Anxiety or Fear of Unknown

Am I living a life in fear of the unknown without any reason? Am I in a constant state of fear feeling as if I have an exam tomorrow and I’m not prepared for it? Am I anxious to know what lies tomorrow and depressed as a result? Am I living in a state of suppressing my desires whether it be life or death?

If you are in this state currently, then it is time you examine your life very deeply. These are signs that you are now required to raise your vibrations. You can do that by being grateful for what you have and start by examining your life.

Spiritual Life Lesson #12: I know or Willingness to listen

Do you realize that your ego prevents you from the willingness to know more when you say, “I know”? Did you say, “I know what these 12 spiritual life lessons are while you were reading them”?

Did you catch the deep hidden messages and realize that these spiritual lessons tend to change your level of consciousness and raise the vibrations of this planet? If not, then be willing to learn, check, and change yourself. It is best to remain silent if you know and just listen anyway.

But what if you really know? Then, exercise patience. Recognize that it is a test of patience. Are you willing to be patient? Maybe it is time to breathe and your lesson is to be willing to accept just that – be patient.

So a willing attitude changes us instantaneously from a negative pride-state of inflated ego to an optimistic positive-state of being. With constant and consistent practice it will ultimately bring you to a higher state of consciousness i.e. peace.

CONCLUSION

In conclusion, we learned there are various spiritual life lessons to learn and grow from. The aforementioned series of questions can help guide you as to where your lessons can be found whether it be a career, relationships, health, etc. Doing so helps us steer our life towards being in our desired state -long term happiness. This implies being contented with life and being at peace.
