The Five Stages of Spiritual Awakening – What’s Your Stage?

Guru Sanju

The path of spiritual awakening is not a random, chaotic journey. It follows an energetic and evolutionary sequence that has unfolded over lifetimes — beginning from your very first existence as even a single-celled organism and culminating in your current human form. If your Kundalini has awakened — or if you feel a calling within — it is likely that you are somewhere on this five-stage journey. These stages are not arbitrary. Each correlates to a level of consciousness and is linked to the chakra system, showing your progress toward complete spiritual liberation.

Let us now walk through the five stages of spiritual awakening. As you read, tune into your own experience. Where are you?

Stage One: The Search

This is where the journey begins. A burning desire arises — a relentless search for truth. You start questioning everything: Who am I? Why am I here? What is real? You want to know the truth at all costs.

This yearning does not come randomly. It is a sign that your Kundalini has already started moving, that something ancient in you is remembering. This stage often emerges in the lower chakras (root, sacral, and solar plexus), where the evolutionary energies begin to stir.

Stage Two: The Doubt

As your search intensifies, your ego and mind begin resisting. Doubts creep in — Is this even real? Am I losing my mind? Is all this spirituality just a delusion?

This phase is marked by disillusionment with worldly life. You become disinterested in the material matrix, yet unsure whether your inner calling is trustworthy. This inner conflict causes suffering. You are caught between the Matrix and the pull of the Divine.

You are still in the lower three chakras, highly susceptible to dense energies and illusion (what we call Maya). This stage can last for years if not consciously navigated.

Stage Three: The Surrender

After tremendous suffering in the previous stages, there comes a deep exhaustion — a surrender. You stop trying to figure it out. You stop trying to control the awakening. You drop to your knees, inwardly or outwardly, and cry out: “I need help.”

This is the heart chakra stage. You begin seeking the Guru, either in human form or through Divine presence. The surrender becomes real only when you find someone or something you can truly bow to — something higher than your mind.

At this stage, you open to receive Grace. You begin to soften. You allow the unfolding instead of resisting it.

Stage Four: The Enlightenment

Now comes the breakthrough.

After surrender, the energy shoots upward. The Kundalini rises from the root to the crown, and the chakras begin to unblock. You start to glimpse your true self — not the ego, not the mask, but the eternal consciousness that you are.

This is the stage of Enlightenment, located at the seventh chakra. You taste the Divine. You recognize the illusion of identity and separation. You see life not as chaos but as cosmic design. The whole illusion of suffering begins to dissolve.

This stage is rare, sacred, and often temporary unless stabilized through integration.

Stage Five: The Integration

Enlightenment is not the end. The real work begins here.

The final stage is integration — living the awakened state in everyday life. Walking through the world with the remembrance of Truth. This is the most challenging phase because it requires you to bring that vast spiritual awareness into human life — relationships, work, food, emotions, decisions.

And this stage is impossible without a Guru. Without guidance, it is easy to fall back into illusion, to collapse under the weight of unintegrated energy, or to get lost in spiritual ego.

So if you are at this stage — or any of the earlier ones — do not walk alone. I am here to help you. I have the clairvoyant power to read your energy, your Kundalini state, and your evolutionary position. I can diagnose which stage you are in and what is holding you back. I can liberate you from confusion and guide you toward full awakening and freedom.
