Spiritual Calling
(See: The Spiritual Wanderer's Journey Overview)
We all begin our spiritual journeys with some deep and visceral spiritual calling. Our calling might be an intense fire within us that burns for freedom, or it may be a quiet but persistent voice that intuitively drives us forward. “Something isn’t right,” “There must be more ...” “What’s my life purpose?” “Why am I suffering?” For some people, the spiritual calling comes after a crisis or traumatic situation on the physical, emotional, or mental level. For others, the call to begin the spiritual journey is triggered by a spontaneous mystical experience or sudden life-changing epiphany.
Below, you’ll find the guidance you need for this part of the journey.
(For an in-depth overview of this entire awakening process, see our illuminating Spiritual Wanderer Course.)
