Thanks to guest blogger, Lee Nourse, a freelance editor and writer, for interviewing author, Christine Hoeflich, and reviewing her book, The Spiritual Awakening Process: Coming Out of the Darkness and Into the Light.
Coming from some writers, these and other statements in the book may sound far-fetched. But with her engineering background, she approaches her investigation into the spiritual awakening process from a sound, logical perspective. What’s more, she presents her findings in crystal-clear English. So you don’t need a graduate degree in astronomy or theology to understand this book.
Christine’s writing style is fluid and conversational, captivating you with background information about the relevance of 2012 that many people still don’t know about.
If you’ll remember, many people feared that December 21 of that year would be the end of life on earth. The author informs us why the Mayan calendar ends on that date. She then ties it in to some physical changes occurring both in our galaxy and here on earth.
In the next section, Christine describes 5 steps you can take to connect with your inner shaman and transform your life! She is generous with insight into her own experiences, which serve to illustrate the kind of synchronistic moments that could slip by unnoticed in our own lives if we’re not paying attention. Which could be to our detriment because it could be a sign that the universe is speaking to our higher consciousness.
The Spiritual Awakening Process: Coming Out of the Darkness and Into the Light is a fascinating read. For me, the intrigue didn’t wane until the last page of the last chapter, where readers of her Spiritual Awakening Blog asked questions that Christine answered.
Interview with the Author:
Why didn’t you want to write this book when your friend the intuitive suggested it?
Because my first book, the book I completed a year and a half before this one, was painful to write and took years to complete. I didn’t want to go through that difficult process again. But after my friend told me I needed to write a second book, by the time I got out of bed the next morning, I realized that writing this book wouldn’t be nearly as bad, for several reasons, and it wouldn’t be as personal, either.
How did you discover Father Charlie Moore?
I attended some lectures in the San Francisco Bay Area on holistic and new age topics such as natural health, humanity’s ancient origins, ancient wisdom, spirituality and new living, and that’s how I came across Father Charlie Moore. I just went through a notebook of mine that I kept back then just for these kinds of topics and I see that I went to my first Father Moore lecture in February of 2001. From then on, I tried to attend his lectures whenever possible. He lived near Monterey and he’d drive to a Divine Science church in San Jose and that’s where I’d usually go to hear him speak.
Do you think that the Counsel of Light put Father Moore in your radar?
I think so. Right around the year 2000 I began searching for answers and was interested in holistic and spiritual topics. It was just a matter of time before I learned of him.
How important is it for readers to understand the phenomena in the solar system that you describe (pp.20-38) in order to understand The Spiritual Awakening Process?
It’s very important, as it illustrates the idea in the Bible that says, “As above, so below.” Plus, it gives readers hope that humanity is on the right path, that we just need to become consciously aware of the process we’ve been going through for millennia, and the noble reasons for our journey. There’s lots of wonderful confirmation and real hope in this book.
Is the ‘Fall from Consciousness’ your concept? When and how did you first come across it?
No, it’s not my idea. It’s been talked about by many spiritual teachers. And it goes way back to the Bible, when Adam and Eve “fell from grace,” in order to, in my opinion, gain real knowledge. In other words, the kind of knowledge that only comes from firsthand experience.
What’s next for you?
I will continue blogging and sharing about my two books, The Spiritual Awakening Process: Coming Out of the Darkness and Into the Light (available in Kindle version and paperback), and Reconnected: A Spiritual Awakening Memoir (which is the Kindle title; the hardcover title is What Everyone Believed: A Memoir of Intuition and Awakening).
