What is Awakening?

[zone2012]

Here is my view on awakening.
I don't think it's just to expose the Elite, and to figure out that we are living in a Matrix which we created.
The collective mind of humans, got lost over time and forgot what it's true nature is. We got lost in the ego, and the material world. After science took in the place of manipulating religions, we where caught in a dualistic world view without spirit. Here am I, and there are you! This results in looking for answers in the outside, or to blame things in the outside for your current situation. If we try to solve this problem of the Elite, and wish for a new free world, we have to start with the man in the mirror. We have to be the change we want to see.

How do we keep this system alive?
Because we look in the outside world for the cause of our problems, we are lazy, we don't like to think for us, we are spoiled from our luxury life.
We want to see the change, but do we also ask our self what we are doing NOW to make this new world possible?
So let us start making a change in our personal life, and not waste our time waiting for it to happen by it's own. It won't!
So what can you do now to make a better world possible?
First of all, you have to say goodbye to this consumer oriented lifestyle. If you buy things, then ask yourself what is connected to it.
You will see that you have to change a lot. We can't complain if we support the Elite. That's the reason we don't see a change yet. We don't want to give up our comfortable life.
The truth is, A LOT DON'T REALLY WANT TO CHANGE. This lifestyle has made us ADDICTED and lazy.
We wan't a new and free world, without giving up the old one. This won't work.
The best thing is to start small. Take a look over your situation/life, and ask yourself what you can change. Where do you buy your food? How much cloth do you have? Do you really need a new mobile phone? How do I try to make people happy around me? Do I really listen to them? How do I treat myself?
Those are just examples.
The other important part is the spiritual awakening.
One thing! There is NO easy and fast way to a evolved spiritual mind.
No books can take this step for you, no David Icke can make it for you.
It's your decision, and your effort that counts. The amount of time you spend on your spiritual awakening, will be shown in your everyday life, and personal change. That's work. But maby you prefer to watch TV, or go shopping? It's your decision.
As the Hopi say in their prophecy.
We have two ways to choose from. One leads into destruction, the other one into a golden age. It's up to you.
So the change is just a step away from us, but if people don't ask the right question like "Who Am I?", then it's miles from us away.

u've writen here very nice.
What is awakening? is to be aware , to agree and realize in concious state the true nature of things. Its very difficult indeed - and it may take a lifetime to get to the iluminate state , with sustained effort.
Every human on earth has built for himself a valor system and belief system and agrees and does not agree with different "atributes" wich are in report with what he lived and experienced. Therfore, its correct to afirm that no human has to be taken responsable for beeing lazy, focused on material aspect etc. These are just things that happened due to current society , as for the awakening , i have tried to bring forth some issues to a friend of mine, but he kept to be ignorant and didnt really care.
Of course it was wrong to impose this to him, yet i thought i helped. Some humans are so awaken others not - this means to be concious of the fact that there are infinite posibilites about life and free choise.

We are free regardless ... we just listen to the bad belief system wich is our.
In my case, i have my driver licence but because i feel incompetent about driving im not driving, and its hard to convince myself that actually i can drive very very good. Its fear etc. I am aware of this aspect and yet i have difficulties trying . This example goes for alot of things.

We put ourselves in limitatory boundries because we think we are not good enough or not worthy .

Its proper to agree with the fact that i got aware with just eariler today when i walked down the streets in my hometown. All of the people, mostly people over 25 year old, were too busy running arround with everyday stuff to make a living - trying to make money, work etc, very burried in this and its true u dont really have time to awaken spiritually, think, meditate when u have a wife and son to take care of.

Awakening is to live happy and content with what u have , no1 should force like i did on others to take for instance into account that the moon is a spaceship. Its sad to see my friends in a state where i was several years ago - i mean , they dont really care much either, just need simple things.

Also, everything is with a meaning, i had my experiences, ezoteric , magic, paranormal - and many others . Probably im more awaken - aware of the meaning of all of this existance and posibility, yet again i may not and my arrogance blinds me. All i can do is to belive in my connection with good entities and God (Universe, Nature, Cosmos) and keep going .

I must admit, i went over the line with my "magic" awakening and now i suffer the consequences. I played with forces beyond my understanding with a mind of a child, and seems karma does not care :). - I mean by this, do not rush and get frustrated about awakening and dont make this "Awakening" a doctrine - im the example , and now i have trouble reporting corectly into real world. Still i dont regret anything . - Observe my egocentric self in this rows.

As you said above, this road of existance is for every1 to take, and if u are not destined to at least experience some stuff , surely dont try and force it.
Its a bumpy ride indeed, and i remember myself 5 years ago and i see myself now and i am forever in dept to those who helped me , voluntary or not , starting with david ike and conspiracy theorists that brought insight about the world we live in and how things go at least to the level they got to know and shared information to even the magic beeings and aliens along + the Universe that allways gives what u want - bad and good.
so thank you for the post here because was so nice and thanks all that go twards good. yay. :)

IMHO.

There is no awakening on a physical or mental level.
However there is an awareness that something aint right...on a physical or mental level.

The information that has been revealed by researchers like DI etc is neither concrete fact or absolute lies.

We are aware that this information exists through different mediums of delivery but to swallow it all is to deny an individuals own truth and purpose in life.

And to impose what we think we know onto another individual is fucking with there right to choose. No better than religous evangelists.

IMHO
True awakening is on a spirit level, to be awake is to know that your body is just a sheath for your soul who acts to know itself on a material level.

To be awake is to know that you are the creator and destroyer of your life/lives.

To be awake is to remove all imperfections from body, mind and heart and embrace the spirit of love and unity, it may take many lifetimes but that is the spirit path and everyone is pushed towards that common goal of the Source whether they like it or not.

It is our problem that there is so much hatred and evil in the world, we as a species created it from our own hearts.

Every individual has to take responsibilty for there own thoughts, feelings and actions. To blame somebody else for your problems or the worlds problems is the height of ignorance, we all contribute to the pain of the world.

People whine and moan and whinge coz deep down they are petrified of change, there mouths say one thing and there hearts say another.

If we want change we have to act, not thinking about acting but act, just act. Put one foot in front of the other and move. Until then we are just aware not awake, capiche.
