This is a question I am often asked by students.
Normally what happens is this process begins without our intervention. It can happen anywhere and anytime. It is not us who determines the time and place or the conditions. When we first experience being present it is just like someone waking up. We find ourselves in a life. Male female, rich poor, married single, beautiful not so beautiful? It is not us who determines all this but a mixture of Fate, Destiny, Luck and Mechanics. Basically we have attracted a life that for many reasons has attracted the awakening process.

We all have thoughts about the ideal conditions and dream of them.
Somehow it is possible to start to confuse awakening of the Soul with ideal conditions for the body.

The point is we start awakening and this is the first thing we have to address. We awaken in Life and have to deal with the circumstances slowly if at all. This is why I want to remind you all that awakening is an internal process. First, the Soul must proceed with its awakening. Then slowly, ever so slowly, our Souls may begin to attract a different life. Or at least begin to attract a different play based on who we really are. We have to awaken first in the life we have created that is so hard.
keep going.
The impulse to go back to sleep is often irresistible.
Remember you have nothing to lose…..
except yourself.
