Something shifts within you and the mind stops. No more voices in the head, no more rambling thoughts, no more commentary, no more questions, no self-doubt or self-condemnation, no judgments, no involuntary or uninvited thoughts;just quietness and peace.<span class=\"\" style=\"display:block;clear:both;height: 0px;padding-top: 10px;border-top-width:0px;border-bottom-width:0px;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Then a feeling of being connected with everything opens, and a realization that God is the source of everything and everything is within God. God becomes a direct experience and no longer a matter of how others have defined God to be. There is a realization of being one with God in a similar way that a wave is an aspect of the ocean, but the realization is far beyond this. There is a connection with all intelligence and love, and an awareness of being one with and part of the entire vastness of being, yet retaining awareness of individuality&#8211;individuality but no separation.<span class=\"\" style=\"display:block;clear:both;height: 0px;padding-top: 10px;border-top-width:0px;border-bottom-width:0px;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>A realization that also comes is that this is so simple. It feels so simple you think a kindergarten child could experience this. Then you feel like you are a kindergarten child yourself seeing the reality of life for the first time. You feel that now you will experience life in a whole new way&#8211;with new eyes, feelings and awareness. It&#8217;s like starting life over.<span class=\"\" style=\"display:block;clear:both;height: 0px;padding-top: 10px;border-top-width:0px;border-bottom-width:0px;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>There is a sense of freedom, lightness, and openness, and sometimes euphoria and bliss. There is definitely peace. What troubled you in the past seems distant and unreal. You may think you have transcended the physical, and in some ways have, yet the needs of the physical must be dealt with and cannot be ignored.<span class=\"\" style=\"display:block;clear:both;height: 0px;padding-top: 10px;border-top-width:0px;border-bottom-width:0px;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>You may even run to the mirror thinking, &#8216;I must surely have changed in some dramatic way, for I feel completely different,&#8217; And yet the mirror reflects what it always has, but with perhaps a more relaxed expression.<span class=\"\" style=\"display:block;clear:both;height: 0px;padding-top: 10px;border-top-width:0px;border-bottom-width:0px;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>There then follows an awareness that nothing in this physical realm is all that important, and the feeling inside is such complete contentment that it doesn&#8217;t seem to matter what your circumstances are;you are content.<span class=\"\" style=\"display:block;clear:both;height: 0px;padding-top: 10px;border-top-width:0px;border-bottom-width:0px;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>There is an automatic awareness of being present in the moment&#8211;in the now. You no longer have to work at being present, or having the spiritual traits you have admired in saints. Not that they are yet fully blossomed, but they are now automatically unfolding without effort. They are an outgrowth of the new being you have become. You realize that the enlightenment event is like a new birth&#8211;a new beginning from which far greater growth is possible than what was understood or imagined before.<span class=\"\" style=\"display:block;clear:both;height: 0px;padding-top: 10px;border-top-width:0px;border-bottom-width:0px;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>What hasn&#8217;t happened yet is the release or complete transmutation of all the effects of karma. Because the peace and contentment are so full, some think they have transcended it, only to discover it still has a bite. Releasing the karmic energy patterns is now far easier, however, for many of the factors of mind are no longer holding on.<span class=\"\" style=\"display:block;clear:both;height: 0px;padding-top: 10px;border-top-width:0px;border-bottom-width:0px;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>To continue the spiritual evolutionary process karmic issues must be addressed and systematically released until the ego is eliminated and all pulls and attachments are gone. This happens as shifts in awareness which feel like you are popping into a new reality. All of the false and imagined subpersonalities and identities are released one-by-one until they are all gone, and then you reform in whatever way will appropriately handle what life brings in the moment&#8211;moment-to-moment. There is always a sense of being beyond it all&#8211;a neutral observer and unattached participant, yet fully capable of being more present and involved than ever before. At this point, one knows they are now, finally, fully totally free.<span class=\"\" style=\"display:block;clear:both;height: 0px;padding-top: 10px;border-top-width:0px;border-bottom-width:0px;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>How do you trigger the enlightenment event? There are certainly many paths and many ways, but the process is most definitely accelerated by being with someone who has already achieved this state. Some of the effects may be activated by simply being in the presence of a person who has experienced the shift themselves, but it can be done more quickly and completely by directly working with such a person to the end of releasing whatever holds one back. This is precisely what the Quantum Quests classes revolve around&#8211;by teaching ways each participant can facilitate this process in the other participants. It is also the ultimate goal of the sessions either in person or via phone. People may come to relieve some struggle of pain, but they soon become aware there is far more available.<span class=\"\" style=\"display:block;clear:both;height: 0px;padding-top: 10px;border-top-width:0px;border-bottom-width:0px;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>There are unique and incredible clearing practices and shifts in your calibrated level of consciousness that make levels of freedom attainable by virtually everyone. Through the CDs, classes and retreats you will learn processes you can work with on your own that will help you with this, but perhaps the most revolutionary practice of all you will experience is applying procedures with another who can help you accelerate your releasing of whatever is limiting or blocking you from reaching clear levels of consciousness. This is just one important aspect of what we address in the CDs, classes, and retreats. The other important class emphasis is to help you attain enlightened states of consciousness.<span class=\"\" style=\"display:block;clear:both;height: 0px;padding-top: 10px;border-top-width:0px;border-bottom-width:0px;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>AN ACCELERATED PATH\u00a0<span class=\"\" style=\"display:block;clear:both;height: 0px;padding-top: 10px;border-top-width:0px;border-bottom-width:0px;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>In past ages it took decades to reach these high calibrated level of consciousness states, which you can now reach in months or a few years. We utilize some revolutionary processes that help you access high calibrated levels of consciousness states that make the transformations easier and quicker than you might imagine. The methods we use have radically changed the enlightenment process.<span class=\"\" style=\"display:block;clear:both;height: 0px;padding-top: 10px;border-top-width:0px;border-bottom-width:0px;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>David R. Hawkins describes in his book Power vs Force there is a continuum of consciousness from the lower ego drives to the highest states of enlightenment. He describes a process whereby you can calibrate and know where you are on the relative scale of enlightenment. On a scale between 0 and 1,000 most people in North America are between 200 and 300. Those more advanced are in the 400&#8217;s, and those who are awakening and experiencing more love and joy are in the 500s. When a person reaches high calibrated level of consciousness states of 600 and above they are living in enlightened states of consciousness all the time. Our training is designed to help you reach these elevated levels and most of those completing our program are above 500 and the more dedicated and advanced students are living above 600.<span class=\"\" style=\"display:block;clear:both;height: 0px;padding-top: 10px;border-top-width:0px;border-bottom-width:0px;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>There are some applications and practices you will learn to apply daily, but the energies and frequencies of consciousness we use will do a lot of the work for you. All you have to do is be open and the tractor beam will pull you home. As long as you don&#8217;t fight the light, it will take you home. This is a path of attraction to divine light and surrender to God&#8217;s love, wisdom, intelligence and power. When you do that, all the things that torment you will dissolve and vanish from your life. Just be kind to yourself and take advantage of our retreats, classes, phone sessions, Tele-Conference Meditations (TeleMeditations), and audio programs. These programs are all designed so your life will rise to high calibrated levels of consciousness.<span class=\"\" style=\"display:block;clear:both;height: 0px;padding-top: 40px;border-top-width:0px;border-bottom-width:0px;\"><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Jonathan Parker\u00a0 It can happen in a moment&#8211;a matter of seconds, or a few minutes at most.
