Books: Author Explains the Radical Awakening of Consciousness Occurring on the Planet

For the first time in the history of civilization human beings are beginning to awaken en mass, and "The Awakening" guides the reader into these higher states of consciousness as they are reading.

The Awakening, an Evolutionary Leap in Human Consciousness is a book that connects with the reader energetically, through Shaktipat, the primordial life force that underlies all creation. The book serves as a mirror to reflect back an innate inner knowing that awakens the consciousness of the reader as they are reading it.

The book was written as a result of a calling by the Arch Yogi Sri Sri Sri Shivabalayogi Maharaj, one of India's most famous and powerful Yogi's, who had been grooming the author, Steven S. Sadleir, to become a Shaktipat Master in his lineage of Shivite Yogi's. Sadleir had been undergoing an advanced meditation discipline called Tapas where he sat in meditation for over eight hours a day for months, and gradually increased his meditation up to twenty-three hours a day and sustained it for forty consecutive days and nights. Sadleir was then installed as a Master in this lineage and asked to go back to the United States and transmit this Shaktipat into western civilization.

The Awakening was written in Bangalore, India, immediately after the completion of Mr. Sadleir's training. As he continued sitting in silence he psychically picked up thoughts of a fellow yogi sitting also sitting in silence nearby, and would write out the answers to this yogi's questions on the back of paper napkins, the only paper at hand. This compilation of paper napkin notes formed the bases of the book, and the Shaktipat being conducted during the writing can be felt while reading the book. The reader gets high reading it; a whole new paradigm in shifting consciousness.

The Awakening addresses the awakening that is presently occurring within the collective consciousness of humanity, and provides the reader a set of keys to access the part of them that already innately knows. This book has the blessings of some of the most esteemed gurus on the planet, including Vethathiri Maharishi and Shivabalayogi Maharaj. Ram Dass says it's "a profound book." The book ends with the quote indicative of the books message: "We can achieve greater peace in this world through the collective efforts of each individual finding peace in their own world."

Steven S. Sadleir is best-selling author of Looking for God: A Seeker's Guide to Religious and Spiritual Paths of the World, a compendium of every major spiritual path, denomination and teacher on the planet, and Wake Up: Live the Life You Love, co-authored with Dr. Deepak Chopra, Dr. Wayne Dyer and Mark Victor Hansen, as well as other popular books, such as, The Calling and Naked Soul. Steven is director of The Self Awareness Institute with students in over 120 countries, presents seminars in The Science of Manifesting globally, and has a radio show on the Internet called Enlightenment Radio.

The Awakening: An Evolutionary Lead in Human Consciousness is a guide book to higher consciousness that can either be read cover to cover or used similar to tarot cards where you can pose a question and randomly open a page and reflect on the relevance of what is read to the question at hand to gain the insight needed. This book is available through New Leaf Distributing, Amazon.com, in bookstores or on the publisher's website.
