This blog is about spiritual awakening, maps and stages, the blinding effects of our strong momentum/conditioning (karmic propensities), view, realization, experience, etc. If you're new here, I recommend going through the 'Must Reads' articles (see sidebar). For discussions you are welcome to join the Awakening to Reality Facebook group
Dear Soh and Thusness, You have been very kind in maintaining a link to my articles on Levekunst.com in your "recommended links" sidebar for many years. I have been publishing a book, "Tranquillity's Secret," on Medium.com, which supersedes my articles on Levekunst. I would like to offer a new link to you and your readers. The link will take you to a full table of contents of what has been published so far, approximately 1200 hours of reading material. This table of contents contains Medium "friends links" that bypass their paywall so that there is no charge for reading the material. The link is: https://bit.ly/TranquillitysSecretFriendsLinks
🙏 In the hope that all beings be comforted—no longer suffering in fear, resentment or anger. StillJustJames
