Barbara De Angelis, renowned authority on relationships and personal growth, speaks to an audience about her philosophy regarding spiritual awakening. She tells them, “All over the world right now there are people sleeping, people walking through their lives asleep. There are people who will never wake up, there are people who came here to this planet, and don't remember why, and are spending their whole lives wondering what's wrong, what's missing, what am I doing here?"
She outlines the importance of spiritual awakening not just for the individual, but for the whole world: “In our waking up, we're waking up the whole planet, we are waking up hearts, we are waking up souls. Wakefulness. In this moment, on this sacred mountain, with this ancient land that we are upon, we come together to awaken."
Encouraging her listeners to awake and recognize their privileges, she says, “Breathe in happiness. You are alive. You are here. You can breathe the air, you can see, you can smell, you can love, you can touch; all around you are light workers, healers, divine beings, teachers, transformers, everyone sitting on this hill is a teacher, a transformer, and awakener."
"If I'm giving you a lecture that I prepared and gave to the National Mortician's Society last week, then I'm not serving my purpose on earth. I may be doing my job. I may be earning my money, but I'm not serving my purpose, which is to love. Love has to be a part of what you're doing, for what you're doing to give you joy back. And for it to be effective." Barbara De Angelis lays out the core of her philosophy, and continues, "But if we remember why we are here: our assignment, our prime directive; you've always known it was about love. And it is. And it works when you remember it."
