The Nature of Awakening - Introduction
The first step toward glimpsing our real sense of “I am” involves questioning the nature of the Presence that we are, and why knowing it truly matters.
It begins with the very first “message,” later titled the 5th Dimension. That message attempts to describe the experience of the Eternal Now that emerged after a sudden burst of awakening and an overwhelming sense of the “peace that passes all understanding.” This opening occurred during a period of intense, concentrated painful memories and deep despair, which finally cracked the ego’s shell. Through that gap came the Presence, appearing as a beam of light. It arrived in the form of “messages” and insights that were later expressed in words through several weeks of journaling. Those writings eventually became part of this website.
Basic quotations from Yeshua (Jesus) and author Eckhart Tolle are included as simple, initial pointers: invitations to look deeply within and discover who or what we actually are. They question who or what is expressing the sense of “I am,” both the pure sense of being and the ego based sense of personal identity. They ask which truth we must come to know in order to be truly free, why this freedom matters, and how recognizing it as the Presence looking through us can transform our daily decisions and actions.
The videos at the end of the page come from sources not affiliated with AwakeningView, but they are closely related to the content and messages presented here. They were chosen for their relevance and relatively short length, roughly 10 to 15 minutes, making them effective ways to gain deeper insight in less time. They are especially suitable for moments when you are on your phone or computer, scrolling through news, apps, or content in search of knowledge or entertainment to feed the mind. You may wish to watch a few and see for yourself whether they were worth your time.
Ultimately, the page points to the book “Wake Up in 5D,” which was discovered three years after the initial awakening. That book offers deeper explanations and insights into the state of being referred to here as the 5th Dimension. Although AwakenView had no prior knowledge of either the book or its author, it provides the next step for anyone who wishes to explore this state of Presence, the Eternal Now, more deeply.
The 5th Dimension
The Message
The 5th Dimension is not a place, but a “view” from which Awareness sees the dimensions below, where the world of forms and time manifest. From this Eternal Now and non-local perspective, we can see with a Single Eye, without duality or judgment, and freedom from the self-made identity begins to be realized.
The “Kingdom of Heaven” is found and sets consciousness free from the mind-made self and emotional attachments that, for so long, have been mistaken as our identity.
The view from the 5th Dimension is accessed only through the portal of the Eternal Now, where intense presence is realized as the real and the only true “I Am”.
Forgiveness is irrelevant and non-existent in this dimension, for there is no judgment or duality of right or wrong. There is only the clear realization that each soul’s journey expresses its own level of vibration and consciousness at a particular moment in its evolution.
Compassion is the nature of Light that emanates from the Single Eye view, and Love is the recognition and appreciation of the true nature in all beings, which is pure awareness observing itself and aware of its own presence.
At last comes the realization that there is no separation from who or what we truly are, only awareness revealing the truth to those who have the Eye to see it.
The Nature of Awakening
5th Dimension: The Transcendent Dimension
“Know the Truth and the Truth will set you free”
Yeshua/Yesus/Jesus – 2000 BC
Here are a few questions related to the “Truth” spoken by Yeshua:
Which “Truth” do you need to know?
How can “it” set you free?
Why is it important to know “it”?
In this chapter, we will review each of these questions separately.
Which “Truth” do you need to know?
– The truth of who or what you really are.
– Who am “I”? What is the “I”?
If you are able to explain it, you have missed it. When Silence speaks, listen carefully so Awareness can reveal “Itself.”
Note that it is possible to glimpse “it” only when there are no thoughts to disturb the “vision”—only in the Stillness of Now. You don’t need future time to realize “it”; in fact, any time added will blind your vision of Now.
The only time it reveals itself through you is Now.
On the second question, let’s explore what Eckhart Tolle says about it:
How “it” set you free?
“By knowing your essence and “Deep Self” You don’t mistake your identity with your thoughts, emotions, history and life situation…” – Eckhart Tolle
“The stream of thinking and unobserved mind, imprison your conditioned consciousness into forms, and that’s all you ‘see’. By waking up to the realization of ‘your true self’, through stillness, there is now freedom from the stream of thinking.” – Eckhart Tolle
What liberation it is to be free from the stream of thinking and to observe without reaction or judgment. To know it is to “see” and experience the “peace that passes all understanding.”
Why is it important to know “it”?
The decisions you make in life are based on the perception of who or what you think you are.
By realizing who or what you truly are, the illusion of the self-made identity is revealed, and you understand that your will to control is a reflection of your ego-identified self and its thought system.
By accepting the present moment as it is, and not resisting or fearing the situation at hand, you begin dissolving the ego and awakening to the “Eternal Now.” From this “View of Now,” the decisions you make no longer come from “your” mind, but from “Universal Flow,” expressing through you whatever needs to be created in the world of forms.
Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom.
Aristotle
The Journey of Dissolving the Ego to Discover the "Kingdom"
“Accept the present moment as it is, as if you have chosen it”. – Eckhart Tolle
Don’t resist or fear the situation of the present moment; simply allow it to be, because it has already happened. It is a fact, and you are experiencing it. There is no denial, only presence observing what is happening.
There is no reaction, only awareness. You are “looking” at the situation and allowing it to unfold. You face it without fear, or if fear arises, you face the fear itself and look at it. You no longer hide. Shine a beam of light upon it until you reach the point where you have nothing left to fear and can finally say from your heart, “I don’t mind what happens anymore.” You break the “link of control.”
You have now reached the frequency of “uncompromised surrender,” the so-called “resurrection,” and you “find death before it finds you.” The ego loses total control of your mind, and aliveness fills the space of consciousness. Ego dissolution begins. For a moment, you may glimpse the “View of the Eternal Now.”
Free at last, when you allow not your will, but the Higher Will, to be done.
Quotes pointing to the perception of God
"Envisioning one's self within oneself reflected, one appears in His likeness".
Yeshua/Jesus 2000BC (The Wisdom of Jesus – Verse No.26. The lost Gospel manuscript from the Nag Hammadi collection found buried in the Egyptian desert in 1945
"The eye through which I see God, is the same eye through which God sees me".
Meister Eckhart (German Mystic)
Can you "observe" without duality and no judgment? Can you view as if "looking" from a Unified Field of Awareness? This is how "God sees" the image of "itself" as you, because the Kingdom (Field) is 'looking' through You!
As the Course in Miracle points:
"It is hard to understand what 'The Kingdom of Heaven is within You' really means.
This is because it is not understandable to the ego, which interprets it as if something outside is inside, and this does not mean anything to the ego.
The word "within" is unnecessary...The Kingdom of Heaven is You!"
A Course in Miracles – Chapter 4: The Illusions of the Ego
Stepping into Stillness… The “place” of no Thoughts
“But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your ‘Father’, who is unseen. Then your ‘Father’, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you”. Yeshua/Jesus 2000BC – Mathew 6:6
Yeshua/Jesus stays for long period in the deserts and mountains to be alone and still…
Buddha meditate at the Forests for years in solitude to realize the “no self”…
Socrates stare for hours into “nothingness” to feel and receive answers…
There is always space to step back a little and observe your thoughts at this moment. The only “thing” necessary is your attention through stillness to direct the Flow of Light (Awareness). It shows and reflect the “View” of your thoughts, like light into clouds passing by in the sky. “You are the Sky and the clouds are your thoughts”. From this stillness where The Source of Awareness flows, “you” can “see” that there is not “me” as a thought, but as the Source of Life within, “looking” the thoughts as a river flows, just observing it running down the stream. You are that “Field of Attention”…
Be still and try to perceive it Now!

“In fifth dimension you will learn to practice discernment, not judgment. No longer will you need to compartmentalize information into good or bad or create comparison. Seeing the Beauty in Everything. Looking for beauty everywhere is one of the first steps in becoming fifth dimensional. Start looking for it where you are. Look for it in nature; surprise yourself with this newfound joy of seeing beauty everywhere. Gratitude and Presence. Being in a place of deep gratitude about everything will assist you in achieving a permanent 5D state. Allowing yourself to be fully in the present moment will also assist you in achieving high states. Yet there is something to be said about observing your happiness, observing your gratitude while staying in the now.”
