The name chosen for the first main chapter in this attempt to deliver a comprehensive description of the spiritual path is "From Divinity to forgetfulness" as after observing students on the sacred path for the last few years, we feel that we should take the time and space needed, in order to describe the process of how one is inherently shifting from the Divine dimension into the realm of forgetfulness and inherent suffering. We believe that such clarity of how the human turns unconscious, rooted in the movement of the mind, and lacking existential sense of depth in ones' experience of life, can be beneficial and contributing to the understanding of how to transform this state of misery into Awakening and growth within one's spiritual journey.

What is the spiritual journey, which many take upon themselves in the recent times ?. is the journey similar to all seekers ?. It is clear that humanity has gently started a certain process of questioning its own reality. As it could allow shifting its focus and time spent, from the need to physically survive, which had occupied most of their days in the past, to a state of having the option to pursue a deeper existential experience of their lives. Doubting its general experience of life, its insufficiency and sense of lacking the desired depth.

The true spiritual journey commence when this quest emerges from a place which is deeper than a mental research. Arising from restless energy and a deep intuition , that something inherently is missing in the experience of life. Sensing that some basic questions must be asked and Answered in order for them to experience harmony in their lives. Meaning, the answers they receive cannot only be a mere intellectual answer. It must provide a true transformation into a deeper experience of reality. A deeper understanding of what is missing .A deeper self-knowledge and experience of who am I in these endless turbulences we call life.

Once behind these questions stands a strong energy of curiousity, determination and even frustration, which prevent one from continuing the habitual flow of life, than at true spiritual journey can be born within ones heart and mind.
A Journey into Awakening. Awakening of intelligence. Awakening of ones heart. Awakening and growth into a deeper existential layers of the experience of life, and eventually awakening to ones true identity.
It is a journey of a Divine spark which has forgotten its true identity, and link to the eternal. By doing so, it gave birth to the suffering and disharmony that one inherently experience within the human realm. It is a journey which combines both surrendering to that which already Is within us, with the need to co-create and awaken certain faculties within our consciousness, intelligence, and Hearts.


This transmission and assistance will be most beneficial for a certain type of seekers. As not all seekers are the same. Our conclusion after years of meeting seekers on the path is that very rarely you find a true seeker. One who seeks in order to find the answer sought !. one that wont settle for less, as his heart wont rest before reaching this clarity and harmony.
The nature of the spiritual journey of most seekers is mainly based on collecting spiritual knowledge, as well as becoming a bit more conscious of their mental and psychological tendencies. Such seekers are searching outside of them, in order to become More of what they already are. They desire to empower themselves, and make their earthly life better handled in terms of relieving some of their suffering. They are not searching for a real answer, but more for general sense of comfort and relief. Such limited prospective can have its' relative benefits. Yet, it is far from reaching the potencial of mankind to reach its' true identity. Usually the journey of such seekers will usually fade out after some time,as their quest is not based on a true soul-desire, and in truth it has never truly existed within their hearts, but only within their minds.

Some seekers will start their search for the right reasons but as they reach certain level of growth and attainments within the inner dimension, they will develop a spiritual ego. Where their sense of identity will be defined again by their mental subconscious faculties. These faculties, which will be later discussed, take over the spiritual quest and turning it into an Ego-trip. A subconscious mental formation which is empowered and nourished by the spiritual relative attainments .Such trap can lead to blocking the option of deepening the process of awakening. Adopting and creating again another illusory identity.

The quest of such seekers lacks purity of intention, and sense of true devotion to the Divine, that which is beyond this dimension. Again, they wish to empower themselves within this dimension, and not really desiring a true complete transformation and transcendence into that which is beyond. In many ways, their attitude towards their relative attainments within the inner dimension, blocks their progress as they allow their Ego-I to be dominate and crystallized again. Some teachers, Masters, on this path had fallen into this trap as well. Allowing their Ego-role as spiritual guides temper their purity and sense of direction.

This transmission is dedicated to those sincere seekers on the path, whose hearts wont find peace before reaching their true existential identity. Their hearts and minds are fully devoted to the task of self-realization. Sensing intuitively that life cannot be really experienced fully without brining some clarity to their essential questions. Their energy are set into the goal of finding the true all encompassing answer to the questions that primarily initiated this journey within them. This transmission is aiming at not only being understood by the mind and intelligence of such seekers, but eventually to initiate within their hearts a new opening into the sacred journey into the mystery of the Self.


What makes a seeker become devoted and determined to transform ones' existential reality, and another to fade out after few years . The answer rests within the depth and maturity of the seeker's Soul. As the real sacred spiritual journey happens on the soul level.
