Spiritual Growth: How to Be in Higher Consciousness Are you interested in spiritual growth?  Welcome The Pew Research Center shows 74% of Americans say being connected with ‘something bigger than myself’ is essential to being spiritual. Also, 77% of Americans say they explore nature or center themselves mainly to connect with their ‘true self.’ Do you believe in  something bigger than yourself?  What do you want to know more about?  Our normal waking consciousness, rational consciousness as we call it, is but one special type of consciousness. Whilst all about it…there lie potential forms of consciousness entirely different. William James, American philosopher and psychologist Overview of Levels of Consciousness  Many levels of consciousness exist. Freud defined the unconscious, subconscious, and conscious.  Hindu Upanishads have four levels, with the last level being enlightenment.  Richard Barrett’s model has seven levels, the last of which is service consciousness. It is inspired by Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs and identifies seven levels of higher consciousness, ranging from survival to service consciousness. The model has been tested for over two decades. Richard Barrett is an author and coach.  An eighth level is full-spectrum consciousness. At the eighth level, you have mastered all levels.  These levels of consciousness are described in the book A Better Life Through Spiritual Growth and Higher Consciousness. Michael Beckwith Four Stages Spiritual Growth Michael Beckwith’s stages of Spiritual Growth.  “Your life is a journey from unconsciousness to higher consciousness.” ~ Michael Beckwith, Minister at Agape Church in Los Angeles   1.To Me: Victim Consciousness: At the mercy of circumstances. Reacting, resisting, judging. No control. Fear. Positive growth happens when you let go of blame. This results in taking personal responsibility. A catalyst to this growth is either pain or insight. 2.By Me: Manifestation Consciousness: Realize blame is giving power away. Empowerment, take responsibility. I am in control. I can do this. Determination. Personal ownership. You understand your life role and ability to influence, attract, and manifest. Positive growth occurs when you let go of control. Life is giving. Humility. No control or need for it. Connected. 3.Channeling Consciousness – Grace and flow: You find yourself having more and more insights. Having revelations. Having a level of wisdom and guidance and direction. It’s not coming from figuring something out. More intuition is being activated. There’s an allowing state. You become a vehicle for something to occur. ~ Michael Beckwith 4.As Me: Being Consciousness: I am universal awareness; Source, Spirit, God—a unique expression of that. No separation. Oneness: Peace, Joy, Love. Where do you see yourself now according to these four evolutionary stages of consciousness?  Michael: In Beckwith’s stages of consciousness, I never blamed others. My adult rules my life rather than my inner child. When the inner child wants to rule, I calm him. My intuition has been developed since my teens. I have cultivated my connection with the Divine and Divine Grace. Mary O’Malley’s Six Phases of Higher Consciousness She added two more to Michael Beckwith’s four.  Mary added, “Life happens in you.” And “Life happens for you,” and called them the “Six Phases of Higher Consciousness.” Mary O’Malley is an author, counselor, and leader in the field of awakening. “Thank you, Mary, for your contribution to the evolution of human consciousness.” ~ Eckhart Tolle, author of The Power of Now 1st Phase of Higher Consciousness: Life Happens To You “When you are just EXISTING, life happens to you… and you manage; when you are truly LIVING, you happen to live… and you lead.” ~ Steve Maraboli, author 2nd Level of Higher Consciousness: Life Happens By You “You cannot control what happens to you. However, you can control your attitude toward what happens to you. In that, you will master change rather than allowing it to master you.” ~  Brian Tracy, author 3rd Level of Higher Consciousness: Life Happens In You “We don’t see things as they are. We see them as we are.” ~ Anais Nin, a French author Additional Levels Consciousness  4th Level of Higher Consciousness: Life Happens For You “You stop trying to forcibly manage the thoughts, beliefs, and actions that arise from your mind. Ask to be guided by a source greater than yourself. You find a world of support showing up in surprising ways.” ~ Debbie Ford, author 5th Level of Higher Consciousness: Life Happens Through You “You find your way by being sensitively and sensually connected to exactly where you are. Letting ‘here’ reach out and lead you.”   ~ Cynthia Bourgeault, author 6th Level of Higher Consciousness: Life Is You “You are not in the universe; you are the universe, an intrinsic part of it. Ultimately, you are not a person. You are a focal point where the universe is becoming conscious of itself. What an amazing miracle.” ~ Eckhart Tolle, The Power of Now  What are your outer or inner spiritual challenges? Are they finances, health and or relationships?
