Thank you for whatever impulse brings you here.

For each of us carries an important thread to sew into Consciousness’s rediscovery of Itself. We are all relevant in this awakening. Welcome!

Today you’re searching for information on spiritual awakening.

This subject is far more complex than information appearing on page or screen. It is a deep inquiry into oneself and the complexity of being both human and spirit ~ of being both form and formless.

Deborah, our Spiritual Director, often says:

“Enlightenment is not an end point.
It cannot be conquered.
Rather, enlightenment means I train
to arrive in each moment
with the embodied realization
that I have a choice… and my choice
determines how I form the next moment of my life.”

Spiritual awakening is an in-the-body progression. It’s moments of wakefulness strung together like mala beads on the thread of my tended awareness. It’s a progression capable of altering the arc of my untended life as slowly I wake up in the revelation that I am not what I have dreamed myself to be. Instead, I am that.. and far, far more. I am the Great Mystery unfolding. And, I am participating in its arrival and receding.

If you devote quiet time in the pages of our website, you’ll discover evidence of awakening and how it flows into life and purpose and community.

However, as at Mystery School, where direct experience is valued as a path to meaningful exploration, we want your questions to have the chance to come alive. So, we have a group of Graduates available to share time with you as part of their commitment to service ~ not as an observer of your inquiry, but rather as a fellow seeker traveling beside you.

If being in exchange with one of our Graduates would be beneficial, please let us know. In the question field, specifically mention what brought you to this page and any question you feel is relevant.

 

We meet you…. without expectation
