Fire
of Love, Descent of Grace
By Dr. Judith D. Wilcox
A New Look at the Experience of Spiritual
Awakening
When we awaken spiritually our lives change.
We suddenly realize we’re no longer
human beings seeking a spiritual experience,
but spiritual beings having a human experience
of our own greatness as we open to our oneness
with all that is Divine.
The experience of spiritual awakening is
a powerful and tangible transformational
event that can be equally ecstatic and unsettling.
The undeniable inner and outer transformation
that unfolds from the point of awakening
and continues throughout the resulting ongoing
experience of union with God permeates every
aspect of a seeker’s life. This transformation
challenges the entirety of all previous
ways of being, requiring changes in how
the seeker sees self, others, the world,
God and spirituality. |
| Fire
of Love, Descent of Grace
offers an experiential view of this momentous
journey from awakening to God Realization
across major spiritual paths. This groundbreaking
book is based on original qualitative research
on the kundalini (inner spiritual energy)
awakening of 6 doctoral study participants
who were practitioners of the ancient path
of Siddha Yoga, along with accounts of the
spiritual awakening experiences and the
spiritual journeys of both ancient and modern
mystics of Christian, Buddhist, Jewish,
Sufi, ancient Celtic Druid and Native American
traditions. The text is woven together with
intimate sharings from the author’s
own personal mystical journey over the past
38 years to create an enlightening and practical
spiritual guidance resource.
The
awakening of the inner kundalini is profoundly
moving and can produce numerous intense
physical, mental, emotional, psychic and
spiritual experiences with which the seeker,
clergy, spiritual teachers and advisors,
mental health counselors, traditional medical
providers and holistic practitioners may
be unfamiliar. Fire of Love,
Descent of Grace offers valuable
guidance and support for seekers experiencing
spiritual crisis and confusion about their
experience and transformational process.
The book also describes in practical detail
some common understandings and practices
for awakening and nurturing this powerful
inner spiritual force. Fire
of Love, Descent of Grace is
essential reading for both spiritual seekers
and those who guide and support them in
their journey.
