The awakening of consciousness takes place on three levels: the mind, the body and the heart. The mind begins to awaken when deep questions arise and are reflected upon, such as, 'who am I?' 'what is the meaning of life?' 'what happens after I die?' 'does God exist?' Through the practice of self-enquiry the mind becomes conscious of itself and the veil of the separate self falls away to reveal the True self (pure awareness).   
As higher consciousness begins to penetrate through the system, unprocessed emotions and energies that are held in the body bubble up to be integrated, and a longing from deep within the heart reveals its yearning to merge fully with the Divine.  Each person will experience their own unique awakening journey and there is no right or wrong way for awakening to happen. Also, these levels of awakening can happen suddenly, slowly, separately or together.
