The Adventure : A Practical Guide to Spiritual Awakening EPUB

Step-by-step practices for cultivating spiritual awakening, from a renowned spiritual psychologist who has studied the phenomenon in hundreds of people and experienced it himself

Steve Taylor has devoted his life to investigating spiritual awakening. In his books The Leap and Extraordinary Awakenings, he discussed case histories of dozens of people who experienced profound shifts in consciousness. The Adventure draws on this groundbreaking research, together with Taylors own awakening experiences, to offer guided meditations, contemplative exercises, and other practices for catalyzing spiritual transformation, as well as lyric poems and inspirational stories.

The Adventure outlines how to:

recognize and cultivate the eight defining characteristics of wakefulness, including presence, acceptance, gratitude, and disidentification from the ego
expand awareness and quiet the mind through meditations and practical exercises
transcend our normal sleep state and the thought mind to move toward increasing heights and depths of spiritual awakening
use the challenges of everyday life of home, workplace, and relationships as doorways to enlightenment
