The Beginning of Awakening – Returning Home to Self

The journey of awakening is a profound return to Self, beyond societal constructs, inherited beliefs and human-made systems. It is an invitation to reconnect with the consciousness that exists within you and around you, embracing the wisdom of the physical, the spirit, the soul and the universe.

For years, many of us have walked paths defined by religion, culture and expectations. Yet, beneath it all, there is a deeper truth, a blueprint of who we are and our true existence waiting to be remembered. LwTee Awakening Journal  is here to guide and inspire you on this path of self-discovery, self-liberation, self-healing and spiritual evolution.

The Layers of Consciousness

Consciousness, which is integral to awakening, is not static. It evolves through experiences, revelations, and the expansion of awareness. At its core, your consciousness exists within the following intertwined dimensions that define the true Self:

• Physical Consciousness – The tangible, earthly experience shaped by our physical DNA, actions, thoughts, words, emotions, belief systems and learned behaviours.
• Spiritual Consciousness – The unseen yet deeply felt awareness of energy, spiritual DNA, intuition and ancestral connections.
• Soul Consciousness – The eternal essence that transcends lifetimes, carrying wisdom, purpose and divine knowing beyond earthly family lineages.
• Collective Consciousness – A fusion of the above three, interconnected with the Earth, the stars, the planets, and the entire universe—both known and unknown, seen and unseen.

To awaken is to bring these dimensions into harmony, allowing each to evolve without limitation and destruction. Understanding and embracing the Principles of Creation is one of the fundamental steps we can take during our journey to awakening.

Breaking Free from Limiting Constructs

Many of the beliefs we hold are shaped by systems that no longer serve us. Religious structures, societal norms and inherited fears often create barriers between us and our highest truth. While these systems have guided humanity for centuries, true awakening requires us to question, unlearn and reconstruct reality based on our own direct experiences and divine knowing.

This is not about rejecting all teachings but rather about discerning what aligns with your soul’s path, the path of your family lineage and the path of the collective.

Beyond this, awakening means embracing sovereignty over your consciousness and understanding that you are the creator of your own reality.

Bridging Ancient Wisdom & New Revelations

Our ancestors understood energy, nature and the interconnectedness of all things. Awakening is not just about personal growth. It is about reconnecting with the ancient wisdom that was lost or distorted over time. This space is dedicated to exploring and sharing:

• The Role of Personal Energy, Universal energy, & Frequency in Manifestation
• The Power of Words, Thoughts & Intentions in Creating Reality
• The Consciousness of  Badimo (Ancestors) & Their Influence on the Living
• Spiritual Practices for Awakening & Self-Healing
• Manifesting Beyond Religious Doctrines

Expanding Your Awareness Through Knowledge

This platform is a living, breathing space for conscious exploration. I will be sharing articles, reflections and book insights from my works, including From Religion to Self and Principles & Tools of Creation.

These writings dive deep into my personal journey—having lived over 30 years within religious constructs before transitioning into full awakening that continues to evolve. I share insights on how to move beyond indoctrination while still respecting the role these systems have played in our evolution.

If you have ever felt a pull toward deeper truths, an inner knowing that there is more, you are in the right place.
