When we hear about spiritual awakening, it can often sound lofty or out of reach. We imagine it will take decades of practice, or that it belongs only to rare, extraordinary people.
But what if the very thing we’ve been seeking has never been absent?
In this episode, Craig turns our attention to something we almost always overlook. Every moment of life is filled with thoughts, sensations, and emotions—yet we rarely notice the conscious awareness in which they all arise.
What happens when that awareness begins to recognize itself? This is the shift at the heart of awakening.
Through teaching, guided reflection, and meditation, Craig invites us into this recognition of awakened awareness—and to the deeper mystery it reveals about who we really are.
