A Practical Guide to Awakening and Expanding your Consciousness

"Welcome back to another video. My name is Aaron, and I help people expand their consciousness. Now in this video I'm going to be sharing with you a non-woo-woo guide to spiritual awakening. Now I'm not discounting the idea of the spiritual aspects of it and those kind of perspectives. All I'm saying is that I believe in making things very simple and very practical so that we can really apply it and relate to it in a powerful way. This is my explanation of it, of understanding what that is, and how we can get ourselves to a point of becoming more aware of who we are and more conscious of the beliefs that are creating the reality within which we live. That is going to be what this video is going to be about. I'm going to give you my experience with that but explain it in a way to where we can actually apply it.
"
"First off, I had my awakening about five years ago. It's been about five years now. When I went through it, it completely changed just about everything about me, the way that I defined myself. I kind of saw the beliefs that I had and how those created the kind of experiences that I had, like it was a reflection for me. I could see the beliefs that I had to the kind of things I was experiencing in life. Once I became aware of that, and then also I started to meditate ... When I started to meditate, it started to change the way that I felt. I started to really get into this level of being present to the moment. I learned how to observe my thoughts rather than react to them. When I realized that I wasn't the thoughts that I was thinking, that's when everything started to speed up. I started to have more and more of these kind of realizations.
"
"This video is going to explain the different layers to this, of how we can get ourselves to raise our level of consciousness and to awaken to more of who we are meant to be. Now to explain this concept in general, I'm going to use a chart that I've used before. It's a chart from a book called The Power vs Force, or just Power vs Force, by Dr. David Hawkins. In this book, he talks about different states of consciousness in the form of a scale that moves from the lowest level to the highest level. Then what we can do is understand how each of these levels has a self-perpetual belief system or self-perpetual thought processes that keep us in little loops based on those levels of consciousness, and how we can learn to transcend those to then awaken into more of who we are meant to be.
"
"Now first off, let's look at the scale. We have shame, guilt, and anger towards the bottom. In the middle we'll have more of the emotions of willingness, of reason, and then a breakthrough happens again at the level of love, when we start to embody the consciousness of love, which what this awakening about, is getting to that state of consciousness. Then you have joy, peace, and enlightenment towards the top.
"
"Now the idea is that you move up and down this scale through life experience. Once we get to certain levels, it becomes like ways that we can more easily maintain certain levels of consciousness. Once we become awakened, it's like we get to a level to where we embody more of the higher emotional state of being than the lower more of the time, even though we'll sometimes dip going up and going down.
"
"Now understand that there are different levels to awakening, but one of the powerful and most common one is becoming aware of what we are thinking and what we are experiencing. It's the simple correlation between the thoughts that we're thinking to the kind of ways that we're feeling, to the kind of things we're experiencing in our life.
"
"Now just to wrap this up, I'd say that a powerful realization to have is that our beliefs are creating our reality. What we believe to be true about ourself is constantly being perpetuated and attracting or seeing the reflection in life of those reflections of how we feel on the inside. When we become aware of this, we can start to get signs.
"
"Now to take the woo woo out of it, there's a lot of people that will see the numbers 11:11, or to see synchronicity. Synchronicity and seeing 11:11 is a natural side effect of the idea that we are creating our own reality through our beliefs and through what we focus on. It's just a side effect. Now the meaning that we give it will depend upon how we think and the way that we process it. We can give meaning to the idea of 11:11. Even at a conscious level, a mass consciousness level, there can be many, many people that say 11:11 means this, 666 means this, and all these number synchronizations. But really, it's just a natural side effect of the idea that the only moment that exists is this moment right now, and what we perceive is going to be a reflection of the idea that we are aware of it. We are aware of the idea that everything is a reflection. We are aware of the idea that our beliefs are creating our reality and whatever we focus on...
