In this episode of The Awareness Podcast, Susan Telford welcomes transpersonal psychologist, best-selling author, lecturer and spiritual poet, Steve Taylor, PhD.
Steve shares his own personal awakening experiences that began at a young age and that ultimately led him to devote his life to the study, investigation and process of spiritual awakening.
In his newest book, The Adventure: A Practical Guide to Spiritual Awakening, Steve explains, through his research of hundreds of people who had a profound spiritual awakening, that these experiences are not mystical or extraordinary, but rather they are more common than we realize. Many people may not even know that they are living their lives in a natural state of awakening or enlightenment.
Steve explains what he believes are the eight essential aspects of spiritual awakening that anyone can cultivate, and he discusses how guided meditations, contemplative exercises, and other practices can bring about spiritual transformation in our everyday lives.
Steve also shares a bit about his upcoming four-part live series for Center for Awakening beginning on July 8th entitled Four Steps to Awakening: Cultivating the Qualities of Spiritual Enlightenment.

Sadhvi Bhagawati Saraswati was born in the USA and her spiritual journey took her to India, where she has lived for many years in the Parmarth Niketan Ashram ashram.
In this edition of the Awareness Podcast, Bill Free chats to Sadhviji about her recently published memoir, Hollywood to the Himalayas: A Journey of Healing and Transformation.
Sadhviji speaks about her very conventional American life that was turned upside down by a vacation to India when she was 25 years old and in the middle of a PhD at Stanford.
It was there that she met her guru, HH Pujya Swami Chidanand Saraswatiji and her life changed forever.

In this episode of The Awareness Podcast, Susan Telford sat down with Heena Vasani to discuss Heena’s life and work using Dr Gabor Mate’s Compassionate Inquiry.
Heena had a kidney transplant 27 years ago, a topic she discussed with Jenny Beal here: https://hub.centerforawakening.org/blog/episode87
In this conversation with Susan, Heena shared how she almost refused the transplant,
because of a deep seated sense of unworthiness.
In finally accepting the donated kidney as a priceless gift, only made possible the death
of another young woman she never met, Heena stepped onto a path of nurturing
herself on all levels.
Heena talks about divine motherhood and how motherhood became her primary spiritual path and led her to examine all her previously undigested childhood trauma and the effects such trauma has on the body and mind.
Heena also speaks passionately about her work using Compassionate Inquiry and describes what happens in a session.
Finally, Heena describes the 4-part workshop she is facilitating for Center for
Awakening in May, entitled Self Inquiry: A Meditative Approach.

In this new episode of The Awareness Podcast, Susan Telford sits down with award-winning filmmaker and founder of the Awaken the World Initiative, Daniel Schmidt to discuss spiritual awakening.
Learn about what Dan describes as a "pattern interrupt" and how that has played out in his own life.
Susan and Dan discuss what is meant by the term "spiritual ego" and how effort on the spiritual path can take us further from the Truth of who we are. Dan speaks eloquently about the importance of what he calls "the conditions of no escape" and "the surrender paradox".
Dan also describes what he will be teaching in his 4 part series, Letting Stillness Reveal Itself, exclusively available in Center for Awakening's Evolve Community in March.

ABOUT DAN
Daniel is the creator of the award winning film “Inner Worlds Outer Worlds” the “Samadhi” film series and is also one of the creators and speakers in the Awakening Mind series. It is Daniel’s intention to convey the one perennial teaching that is inherent within all of the spiritual traditions. Daniel created the Samadhi Center in Ontario Canada and the Awaken the World Initiative as an outer reflection of his inner world. His approach combines self-inquiry with traditional forms of meditation so that participants have the opportunity to simultaneously realize their transcendent nature, and to purify themselves of conditioned patterns so that the human vessel becomes permeable to their true nature. Daniel emphasizes that Samadhi can be experienced not merely as a temporary “state” but as a “stage” of development. Check out this interview with Daniel from the Awakening Mind film.
The “pathless path” is to realize an ever-deepening development process within the self-structure, and to simultaneously realize the emptiness of the self-structure. When these are realized as one, it is Samadhi.

In her final episode for the Awareness Podcast, Jenny talks with Joost Vanhove about his spiritual journey which involved exploration of a very wide range of ideas, methods and teachings. His keen interest in spirituality was initiated by repeated childhood experiences of expansion and oneness. It wasn’t until his teens that by chance he discovered the writings of a 14th Century Belgian mystic which confirmed for him the reality of what he had experienced.
Joost describes and gives examples of the way language influences our thought processes. Jenny and Joost discuss the role of language in the spiritual path and difficulties and pitfalls in trying to understand the ancient texts and the writings of non-living sages. We agree that much more can be transmitted in face-to-face communication with a living teacher.
Joost goes on to share how over a long period he came to create his self-development model using ideas from many different traditions and from friends on the spiritual path. He describes the meaning and content of the four pillars of this model – Perception, Acceptance, Vision, Action. We discuss how this fits with the Direct Path teaching of his teacher, Francis Lucille, and the principle of living in not-knowing.
If you've enjoyed Jenny Beal, we invite you to join her live for her new weekly sessions: The Path to Understanding, exclusively in our Evolve Community. Jenny will use a mix of guided contemplations, experiments, meditation and dialogue to explore and deepen our understanding of our true nature, and discover what happens when we live our normal lives from that understanding.
