These symptoms are said to be shared by the majority of people experiencing spiritual awakening:
1. YOU FEEL AS THOUGH YOUR LIFE IS FALSE.
Everything that you have built up, believed and worked towards seems to be false. Your life doesn’t feel as though it’s your own.
2. YOU CRAVING FOR MEANING AND PURPOSE.
You deeply desire to find the meaning of your life. You have no idea what your purpose is, but you want to find it desperately.
3. YOU REALIZE THAT A LOT OF WHAT YOU’VE BEEN TAUGHT IS A LIE.
You start to see how many beliefs, ideals and values are not actually your own, but other people’s or inherited from your culture.
4. YOU FEEL COMPLETELY LOST AND ALONE.
Nothing in your life seems to make sense anymore. You feel as though you’re wandering through an endless wilderness. As a vagabond, you feel completely alone and cut off from people.
5. YOU SEE THROUGH THE ILLUSIONS OF SOCIETY.
Materialism, success and profit no longer mean anything to you. You start feeling as though you’re a cog in the machine of society.
