It is perhaps the most debilitating form
of the condition. The state is sometimes referred to as "isolation"
or the sense of being disconnected, apart, abandoned or simply
"different" from everyone else you know.
This situation is compounded when
friends, coworkers and even family members begin seeing you
differently. They're not so much intrigued by your positive changes
but rather disappointed by your shift in attitude and may even be
concerned for your mental stability.
These otherwise well-meaning souls are
occasionally characterized as the "sleeping" and you may very well
be part of the "awakening."
The Awakening Mind
I say "awakening" because the experience appears to be very dynamic and fluid by nature.
I'm not sure I would recognize or even
fully appreciated an "awake" mind for they are far and few between
us. But for those who are experiencing various stages of wakening,
you are as visible to me as I am to you.
Generally speaking, the awakening mind radiates at a much different and "higher" vibration than most other people.

Since this "vibration" wants to resonate
harmonically with similar or complimentary energies, it can (and
often does) resonate with like-minded people. It can, however, just
as easily create discord with those who resonate at a much lower
vibration.
Just imagine striking a
non-complimentary note on separate pianos, especially with one out
of tune. That's the discord I'm referring to, except in this case,
the resonance resides within the psychic and spiritual realms.
I speak in terms of "higher" and "lower" vibrations without truly qualifying what is meant by that.
I speak in terms of "higher" and "lower" vibrations without truly qualifying what is meant by that.
First off, there is no state superior to
another. Like changing stations on a radio dial YOU choose the
station you need (or want) to be on. Most people are tuned to what I
consider to be a limited awareness. This does not make them any less
sublime or capable as Humans.
This is merely the channel they are
"tuned" to and as such they are acclimated with that world.
This vibrational density is impressive in its own right for it has the power to generate fantastic illusions so convincing that even the conscious mind can fully buy into it. This ability to manifest a false paradigm and to believe it to be true requires considerable power.

But you, my dear reader, may have peeked
behind the proverbial projector screen and have seen an assembly of
gears and levers and perhaps even a portly, unassuming little man
attending them with due diligence.
Stepping Out of the Matrix
The awakening mind - now that's a different story.
The higher vibration of this mind-body
state allows a more commanding view. Like stepping up a ladder, you
can look down and see (though not really live) the dynamics of the
lower vibrations.
Each step up the ladder requires
tremendous courage, an open and curious mind and a high degree of
"functional" intelligence.
Those steps command effort - much more
effort than what most are willing to exert. Sleepers may go so far
as to observe or even stumble over this hypothetical "ladder" and
still not recognize what it is or how they may benefit from it.
People on the lower rungs of the ladder rarely look up.
People on the lower rungs of the ladder rarely look up.
They choose to frequently look "down"
which may give them a false sense of superiority or dominion over
their world. They are especially prone to the hypnotic suggestion
television creates and may even go so far as to "act out" various
fictional characters or their favorite professional athlete.
The lower state is easily entertained -
and anything or anyone who challenges their status quo will be
dismissed as an outsider, a misfit or a threat.
The Slide and Adrenalin
I have alluded to a ladder- but now I would like for you to imagine a slide. Going "up" the slide takes some effort.
You must go up the steps, higher and
higher until you reach the top. One may then position themselves in
such a manner so to enjoy the ride downward. This downward "thrill"
is brief but exhilarating. The slide provides a good physical
example of going from a higher state to a lower state and the
ensuing thrill from moving in this downward fashion.
There are also many examples of the slide analogy within the spiritual realm. Turn on any news station and you will soon be bombarded with "energy dropping" stories that create a sort of "rush" - a rush that, curiously enough, is habit forming.

These news sources often report stories
of tragedy and high drama. So severe are these stories they actually
can cause the body to produce an adrenalin related "rush" or high.
Once again we find ourselves "sliding" down that imaginary slide and
into a lower vibrational state.
The "mainstream" news networks have
created legions of adrenalin junkies. The "sleepers" are their
primary target.
During the course of their day, the sleepers gradually build their energy level back up. But soon they find themselves back on that hypothetical slide and are sent swooshing down once again into a lower energy state.

It's a vicious, repeating cycle that
keeps the sleepers fast asleep and drunk happy on adrenalin.
Lonely at the Top
Many readers have stayed on top of the ladder long enough to take in the view.
They've recognized that the view is more
exhilarating than the fall. They saw many things up there - things
that would be hard to describe to those below. The awakening mind
continues to build "steps" higher and higher, and soon they are
peeking above the clouds.
Now they look down from this lofty
position and see the tiny dot that was their slide. They are amazed
by how that relatively insignificant slide inspired them to move
higher. Sliding down from this cloud level height is really no
longer an option, at least not in the traditional sense.
Here is yet
another dilemma of the awakening mind.
Once you have experienced the process of awakening (or/and 'Ascension-Transformation-Evolution Process') there really is no going back. The one (down) side is the higher you get, the more rarefied the air becomes. 'Loneliness' can settle in.

The awakening mind is an exceptionally
vibrant mind that requires considerable stimulation and camaraderie.
But it's lonely up there. Indeed...
Final Thought
The awakening experience is truly a gift. It's not for the weak or the meek. It takes much strength and courage to achieve these higher levels of enlightenment.
Those who are awakening come in all
sizes and shapes - many are the
so-called Indigo's, the Crystal's,
or essentially any Human that realizes their personal power and
potential and that there is much more to this world than they've
been told.
One may ponder if those in the process of awakening have a moral obligation to try and wake the sleepers. From my own observation and experience I would advise against this. Simply let them sleep. The best way to reach them is over time.

Be gentle and incremental in your
approach. This is the same technique
the "powers that be" have used
on you -that was until you saw a little "string" that connected to
other strings that held the tapestry of the matrix in place.
So be an example. Radiate with love and truth. Project health, exuberance and happiness.

Be aware without being angry (easier said
than done). The sleepers must see the higher steps of the ladder as
being worth the effort. They may someday abandon the rush of the
fall for the beauty of the view.
Just by virtue of being aware you are already contributing in a vast and energetic way to those around you.

They "sense" your vibration and may try
to resonate with you some day. You have been given "eyes to see" and
"ears to hear" so you have been blessed. Yes, until others begin to
see as you do the loneliness - the isolation can feel very real at
times.
Let me remind you that you are not alone.

We feel you out there - we are grateful
