Sample Excerpts

Preface

Each individual story and journey in this book plays a part in the main story, which is the coming full circle after many lives to merge with my higher self while in the physical body. The experiences I consciously sought out changed me; they brought about a shift to a higher level of awareness. By following my inner, spiritual guidance and connecting my experiences, I remembered who I truly was-a part of all existence.

I discovered my journey to be like a journey of a single drop of water that falls into a stream that flows into a river that flows into and merges with the ocean. From being a separate component, I became part of the whole.

I chose the title, Spirit Walker: A Journey of Awakening, because, like the spiritual journey itself, "Spirit Walker" has several levels of meaning. My journey has involved an outer journey of actually walking through many of the planet's most powerful sacred locations. It has also involved the inner journey of walking my true path-a spirit man whose wisdom grew through life's lessons.

In my journey to awakening I have studied and experienced many teachings. I wish to share these teachings with you. So, my stories are told using several voices: the narrator of my journeys, the part of me that observes and reflects on my experiences, and the teacher in me. To make it easier to read, I have italicized the voice of the teacher. This is my story. However, several relationships have played an important role in my awakening. I have changed some of the names to protect the privacy of the individuals involved.

First guided by spirit to write my stories down, I have been encouraged to write this book by others who have heard my stories. It was their response-to open to their own soul's journeys by hearing about mine-that allowed me to gather the confidence I needed to publish Spirit Walker.

My hope is that these stories will inspire you, the reader, to listen to your inner self and to journey with your spirit. I wish you joy and love in finding your way home.

Afterword

Foremost in the awakening and finding of my inner self through this journey as Spirit Walker was the recognition of the correlation of the two journeys involved. The inner or spiritual and the outer or physical. Through the physical my profound energy connection to Mother Earth, I was able to escalate my spiritual awareness by visiting some powerful energy spots. It was a unique relationship that was conducive to my particular spiritual journey. Adding to the ability of my physical body to be able to shift in vibration in concordance to my spiritual awakening was the pristine state I maintained it in like a sacred temple of the soul. My lifelong caring for my body through a disciplined food regimen, exercise and a lot of respect was inspired and emulated by the spiritual aspect of my inner self.

Another important factor on my path was the tests my mind and ego were able to thrust at me like fear, mistrust and security. These tests were important for me to deal with and move through in order to gauge my spiritual depth and shift in awareness. Trusting my higher self and always looking within to be provided with answers took courage and strength. No matter how much I was swayed away from my designated pathway I garnered enough fortitude and insight to let spirit lead me towards my destination. Even through the deepest love, sensuality and emotion I have felt for a woman in a relationship the Spirit Walker in me knew that my inner journey still took precedence.

If there is to be a teaching from this journey it is that all that you are is what you create yourself and not by others for you. Everyone is a creator and creates his or her reality in each moment. Each moment is the only moment there is and if you are ready to drop all that is not needed in the new moment from the moment past. The ultimate test is the ability to shift in each moment with clarity and lightness and not carrying the heaviness of the past. Since everything exists through the vibration of energy, letting go of all energy that is no longer of benefit is vital to allow the attraction of new energy to stimulate inner growth.

Spirit Walker:

What really matters on the spiritual journey

I am filled with gratitude for my life and my journey. In closing, I wish to share my learnings and appreciation for life with you. It is wonderful:

• To merge with the higher self while staying in the physical body.
• To realize that what seems to be two journeys - the inner and the outer - are actually mirror images of the same journey.
• To honour our connection with Mother Earth and to allow Her to assist in this journey through visits to Her sacred power spots.
• To honour the physical body as temples for our souls by caring for the body through a disciplined food regimen, exercise and respect.
• To trust in the higher self through looking within for all answers.
• To live fully as a multidimensional being - body, emotions, mind, soul and spirit.
• To learn that each of us is responsible for our own lives. It is by our moment-by-moment choices that we create our reality.
• To realize that life is a series of initiations. Each initiation involves preparation, letting go of the known, stepping into the unknown, and returning.
• To enjoy life's tests. These tests might be from the egomind - fear, mistrust and security, for example. Or, they might be from the soul - such as the ability to shift and respond easily to what is in the moment.
• To understand that everything is energy. To learn the art of letting go of all energy that is no longer of benefit in order to attract new energy for inner growth.
• To integrate spirituality in our everyday lives through work, money, relationships, and play.
