We’re diving deep into the fascinating topic of one of the most unique inventions of all time, the flotation tank, created by the enigmatic and pioneering scientist, John C. Lilly. I’ll be sharing what the float tank is all about, some of my experiences in it, my futuristic theory involving the float tank, and how it can be a useful tool for spiritual awakening and development.

Ongoing series of questions and answers to do with various topics related to the spiritual journey of awakening, enlightenment, and Self-Realization.

Twin flames have been marketed to the spiritual community as “the One” on spiritual steroids. Some believe the twin flame relationship to be the most ideal and perfect relationship there could possibly be. But, the fact of the matter is that many go through great suffering trying to make it work.

This over obsession with postures has nothing to do with the Self-Realization or Heart-centered consciousness that this path is about embodying. The only true asana is the asana in the Heart.

This is the healing journey of the Divine recognizing the Divine in all. This is the journey of love. There’s no healing without facing our wounds directly. The shadow doesn’t dissolve unless we cast light upon it. There’s no way around this. To release the conditioning that no longer serves us, we must face it all directly. This transformation doesn’t happen in the background or periphery. It happens in our very Heart. It’s felt directly.

Though there are many kinds of awakenings, some more profound than others, they are all awakenings to the same Truth. Essentially, they are all insights in some way or another into what is not True or what we are not. There are many things that aren’t True and many things that we are not, and so there may be many awakenings before one comes to know what actually is True.

There are so many spiritual teachers and guides out there. How can we be sure that we’re working with the right ones? For someone seeking spiritual guidance, healing, and support from others, it’s absolutely imperative that discernment is cultivated and practiced on an ongoing basis. 

The question of whether eating meat is compatible with spiritual development, Self-Realization, enlightenment, and deep states of meditative consciousness, such as Samadhi, is a good one. I suggest that one should be open and willing to eating meat, if that is what their system is intuitively asking for. Meat has immense grounding benefits that are sometimes essential for those working with Kundalini awakening.

One does not become enlightened. The word become implies some sort of transformation happening in the future. There is no future and you cannot become something you already are. Instead, we can refer to it as the realization of enlightenment. Enlightenment is the lasting realization of who you really are. One may have glimpses or awakenings revealing their true nature. These glimpses may often be fleeting. To realize enlightenment is to abide in the default state; to remain there.

There are many chakras throughout the body, but the main system consists of seven. They are the areas within the body where the energy is most highly concentrated. They are also called energy centers. The chakras each correspond with a colour of light, just like the seven which are seen in a rainbow or a prism.

Sexual energy is the most powerful energy within the body. It’s creative energy, not limited to simply procreation. It fuels creative genius that can be expressed through art, music and intellectual pursuits. It also allows one to be charismatic, confident, physically strong, and attractive overall. As well, it gives one increased focus and concentration which can be used in spiritual practices.

There’s something that’s orchestrating all of this life that we experience. There’s an intelligence that governs it. It’s obvious, but even to deny this is part of the beauty of it all.

The spiritual path is about recognizing that our individuality is not an isolated thing. There is no separation. Though it may appear as if I am completely different than another, if we inquire deeply enough, we come to see that just like all rivers share the same source, all beings share the same source as well.

With an awakening, included with the sudden shift in perception must follow the necessary phase of integration and embodiment where the relative human being must actively allow this shift a chance to be expressed in their life.
