A Journey towards
Awakening Parte I
There is nothing
like embarking on a
trip for a far away
land without knowing
the way; not being
sure if it even
exists, but knowing
that eventually we
are destined to
reach God and
conscious that the
‘I’ who finally
arrives, is destined
to also disappear.
What can I say about
this journey, except
that it only begins
after it is over?
What can I say about
the ‘I’, except that
I will only
understand myself
when this I is done
and gone? What can I
say about the
discovering of God,
except that I am
marveled with the
continuous changes
in his beautiful
facial expressions,
which are also mine?
Behind all our
illusions, separated
from reality, there
is essentially just
one Soul, one Mind,
one Body and one
Consciousness.
While sharing with
you this journey
towards awakening,
maybe you will
discover that it is
also your journey,
as well as ample
unified
consciousness which
is also the planet’s
whole collective
consciousness.
I began to realize
that my spirituality
should spread out
into the marketplace
and integrate with
the economic, social
and political
realities of the
world around me if I
wanted to produce
changes not only in
the people, but also
in societies,
affecting not only
their spiritual
aspects, but also
their material
needs.
For years I was
fascinated with
meditation exploring
the nature of the
universe and the
evolution of
consciousness. I had
always been
interested in
natural science, so
I began crossing the
bridge between
science and
spirituality, and it
was exciting to
realize that there
was actually an
underlying harmony
between them. Each
one spoke a
different language,
but both pointed
toward one single
reality; a reality
that could only be
understood through a
direct intuitive
experience.
My thirst for this
direct experience
eventually led me to
a Meditation Resort
in Pune, India,
where I lived for
over 3 years. My
inner being was
harmonized by the
meditations and I
gradually felt a
deep transformation
setting in.
As a result of
intense meditation
practice over years;
many deep
realizations were
activated in my
psychic body. It was
a beautiful time of
discovery which
broadened my vision
of this planetary
voyage. I also
traveled Australia,
visiting the
dolphins and whales
in their oceanic
world, learning
about oneness from
them.
I began to observe a
dissolving of the
“I”, as if my subtle
bodies had gone into
a deep state of
union with the
Universe. During
some months I felt
as if my own
identity was
actually dissolving,
as I woke up each
morning with intense
energy currents
traveling throughout
my entire body. I
experienced ecstatic
states of joy
accompanied by
numerous
realizations about
the nature of the
universe and human
consciousness.
Soon after, I
realized that I
wanted to help
others on a mass
scale reach these
same states of
consciousness and
decided to enroll in
a 3 week program in
the University of
Oneness, in south
India, called Golden
City. It was a
unique program and I
enjoyed every moment
of its duration.
The key to their
Awakening Process is
what is called
Oneness Blessing:
Diksha or Divine
Energy Transfer.
During the process
in one of the
Dikshas, I felt my
body expanding far
out into the
Universe. I felt
this expansion not
only in my subtle
bodies, but also in
my physical body,
that seemed to
expand so much that
it eventually also
became the universe.
I could actually
distinguish between
our ordinary
perception of matter
as a field of
separation and
Quantic’s perception
of matter, which is
observed as just one
field of
consciousness that
is called true
matter. Only then
could I comprehend
how our own
perceptions change
our true experience
of reality. It is
not that the world
of matter is an
illusion, as much as
our own perception
of the world is the
real illusion!
This was a very
powerful experience.
Although the most
intense experience
faded away after
just a few hours, a
permanent change was
made in my
perception of
reality. In a
particular moment
during the process,
I discovered that
there was no point
of reference that I
could call I. My
sense of Self had
stopped being the
one with a permanent
identity moving in a
linear manner from
birth to death, and
instead what was
left was a constant
sea of
personalities, each
one appearing and
disappearing without
order. Sometimes I
was a mere drop of
water, other times I
was the whole ocean.
Sometimes the drop
of water dissolved
into the ocean and
other times it was
the other way
around. Sometimes
the drop disappeared
and another drop
filled its place.
It’s really
difficult to find
the appropriate
words to explain
this. Over the years
we accumulate all
sorts of concepts
about what
enlightenment
(awakening) is, and
every so often I
even tried to make
my experience fit
into one of those
concepts. In the
end, I finally
accepted that it is
something the mind
just cannot grasp.
Perhaps the best way
to define
enlightenment
(awakening) is
simply saying that
it’s the realization
that there is
actually no “I” to
be enlightened.
To be continued next
Friday..
Character has
been very much
emphasized; in fact,
character is a
peripheral
phenomenon.
The real thing is
not character but
consciousness. Osho
The beauty of
this process
Diksha=Oneness
Blessing is a
transfer of Divine
energy which helps
us to disidentify
from conflict and
suffering, taking us
to states of inner
peace, joy,
happiness and
Oneness
Diksha energy is
universal & useful
in all spiritual
traditions.
It enhances our
ability to connect
from the Heart with
the Divine & with
all of the people
that we love.
Many report that
after receiving
Diksha = Oneness
Blessing they
experience healing
on all levels, as
well as powerful and
ongoing spiritual
awakening. Most
people are seeking
harmony and joy. We
have discovered that
it is possible for
everybody to live in
that state of inner
freedom, even
permanently.
Oneness Blessing
initiates a process
of awakening the
Divine Presence
within you; taking
you towards Oneness,
and enabling you to
see the reality of
what you are in
every moment. Also
healing your body,
your relationships,
and recognizing the
divinity in the
experience of the
present moment….
Conscious awakening
is the ability to
see reality as it
is, without the
layers of
interference and
interpretation
imposed by the mind.
It is a simple
neurobiological
event, and can
happen
instantaneously.
Conscious awakening
is peeling off the
layers of
interpretation from
any given event. To
the enlightened
person, life becomes
very ordinary. You
walk, and you are
walking. You eat,
and you are eating.
Enlightenment is not
about having
extraordinary
experiences so much
as recognizing that
each ordinary moment
is extraordinary in
itself.
Before, there were a
thousand
interpretations in
the mind for
everything you
experienced. Now,
there is only the
experience.
In this Divine state
you consciously
experience your
divine self and
become one with God.
This can be
experienced as a
great explosion of
love or joy, which
is much more
profound than any
worldly pleasure.
When someone reaches
this state of being,
this connection with
God, the Divine, the
Absolute, they will
surely have achieved
the ultimate that
being on this earth
can offer.
You, your freedom
and your liberation
is what is most
important to me.
Experiences: These are experiences from Military Soldiers who have received Oneness Blessing/Diksha
-
The experience that I lived was something that I had never before experienced in my life. I did end up feeling exactly as she had described that we would feel, as there were different feelings in each stage of the breathing and concentration, and I would like to repeat it again. It was really a beautiful experience and one that I will also share with a lot of other people. And today I also feel a new level of energy in my body. Sld. Inf. Flaviano Aranda Cerqueda
-
My reaction about yesterday’s session: I feel that it really served everybody well as in the moment that we began the exercise closing our eyes, we could all feel a very special energy in our hands that were all interlaced, and later, when Alexis touched my head, I felt my body very peaceful with an even deeper tranquility that came later on.

Before having this experience with Miss Alexis, I wasn’t aware of what internal peace was. Now I feel different as I actually feel that my mind is calmer. Infantry Arturo Hustria Hernández.
-
At the beginning of the conference I doubted the things that she was telling but during the session I found myself feeling very relaxed especially when she was explaining about the significance of pain in the different parts of the body and I feel that the music was also an important part of the relaxation.
