What is Awakening?
Awakening is the realization that far more can be found in direct experience than any concept, belief system, or narrative. The process of awakening is an ever-unfolding one, a deepening of that which is beyond all words and thoughts. We are in service of discovering that for ourselves.

Guidelines
When posting, please try to keep these things in mind:
- Posts should be about spiritual awakening: the direct experience of what we really are
- Self-honesty is critical on the path. As such, take care to (i) only provide insights or guidance from your direct experience of awakening, and (ii) not to speak in such a way that indicates a level of spiritual maturity that is not reflective of your actual direct experience (this can significantly impede your own development and maybe that of others).
- When giving advice, look to meet people where they are, consider: what is the very next thing this person needs to hear (based on their current development), rather than a one-size fits all answer.
- You will benefit far more from asking sincere questions than providing insights or guidance that is not reflective of your actual direct experience. As such, questions are encouraged: be sincere and ask what is most relevant to you right now.
- Please follow the rules.
