Spiritual awakening during college years from "summary" of Autobiography of a Yogi (Hungarian) by Paramahansa Yogananda
During my college years, I experienced a profound shift in my consciousness that can only be described as a spiritual awakening. It was during this time that I began to question the purpose of life and the nature of reality. I was no longer satisfied with the superficial pursuits of material success and social status that seemed to consume my peers. Instead, I found myself drawn to the study of philosophy, religion, and metaphysics. I delved into the teachings of various spiritual traditions and sought out the guidance of wise mentors who could help me make sense of the mysteries of existence. Through meditation, prayer, and introspection, I began to glimpse a deeper reality beyond the physical world. As I opened myself up to the possibility of spiritual growth, I started to experience moments of profound insight and inner peace. I felt a sense of connection to something greater than myself – a universal consciousness that pervaded all creation. This awareness brought me a deep sense of fulfillment and purpose that I had never experienced before. My spiritual awakening during college years transformed my understanding of myself and the world around me. It gave me a new perspective on life and a renewed sense of purpose. I realized that true happiness and fulfillment could not be found in external achievements or possessions, but in the inner journey of self-discovery and spiritual growth. I am grateful for the challenges and struggles I faced during those formative years, as they pushed me to question my beliefs and explore new ways of thinking. My spiritual awakening was not a sudden event, but a gradual process of self-discovery and transformation that continues to this day. It has given me the strength and clarity to navigate life's ups and downs with grace and humility.
