When the Soul Awakens

Based on teachings known as the Ageless Wisdom, this meditation illuminates the eternal quest for spiritual truth in the context of today's time of crisis and paradox. Through easily accessible language and words of recognized poets, sages, and philosophers, this handbook makes clear the nature of the soul, the stages of spiritual growth, and where humanity stands along the evolutionary arc. This survey elucidates the challenges of the path that bring about transformation and points to a collective willingness to face these challenges as the means of crafting a new global civilization. The shift in human consciousness from a separatist worldview based in materialism to a humanitarian-spiritual orientation that sees the individual as part of a greater life and places value on the well-being of the whole is also examined.
