What A Spiritual Awakening Really Feels Like, From People Who Have Experienced One

What A Spiritual Awakening Really Feels Like

The term "spiritual awakening" is something most of us have encountered in some place or another. Sometimes it is a story of conversion, returning to one's religious roots or experiencing transcendence in meditation.
