Enlightenment is a gradual process of spiritual awakening from "summary" of Autobiography of a Yogi (Unabridged Edition) by Paramhansa Yogananda
Enlightenment, the ultimate goal of spiritual seekers, is often a gradual process that unfolds over time. Like a flower slowly blooming in the light of the sun, our spiritual awakening progresses step by step, each experience leading us closer to the truth. As we journey along the path of self-realization, we begin to peel away the layers of illusion that have clouded our vision for so long. We develop a deeper understanding of our true nature and the interconnectedness of all things. This awareness brings a sense of peace and contentment that is not dependent on external circumstances. Through the practice of meditation and self-inquiry, we are able to deepen our connection to the divine within us. We learn to listen to the whispers of our soul and follow its guidance with unwavering faith. This inner wisdom becomes a guiding light, illuminating our path and helping us navigate life's challenges with grace and equanimity. As we continue to grow in awareness, we may experience moments of profound insight and understanding that shake us to our core. These glimpses of higher consciousness remind us of the limitless potential that lies dormant within us, waiting to be awakened.- Enlightenment is not a destination to be reached, but a journey to be embraced. It is a continual unfolding of our true nature, a process of shedding the layers of ego and illusion that keep us bound in suffering. With each step we take on this path, we come closer to realizing our oneness with the divine and experiencing the peace and joy that come with it.
