There’s no end to the number of ways we can have awakening experiences. It can come as an epiphany, a realization, a side-effect of taking a hallucinogen, a near-death experience, or even just a spontaneous event while sipping a cup of tea.While reports on such experiences vary dramatically, they consistently feature a high level of contrast between these normal and our regular day-to-day experiences, and a longing to have more of the same.Thom explains the mechanics of such events in this episode, and how we can cultivate awakening experiences on a more consistent basis. Importantly, he describes awakenings as the enlivening of something that is dormant within us, making such experiences more accessible than most might think.Episode Highlights:[00:45] Realizations[02:35] Bija Mantra: Gateway to Transcendence[04:25] Awakening the Unified Field[06:39] Breaking Free from the Web of Constant Thought[08:23] Bliss is the Product of Supreme Inner Contentedness[10:19] Stabilizing the Inner Awakening[12:06] Transient Transcendence: Near-Death Experience[13:58] Varieties of Awakening[15:40] Transcendence in the Junction Points[17:29] Transcendence in Consciousness States[19:15] Irregular Transcendent Experiences[21:31] The Role of Vedic Meditation in Systematic Awakening[23:18] The Truth Behind Meditation and Transcendence[26:11] From Awakening to Enlightenment: Vedic Meditation's PromiseUseful [email protected] https://thomknoles.com/https://www.instagram.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.facebook.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.youtube.com/c/thomknoleshttps://thomknoles.com/ask-thom-anything/
