The Most Important Aspect of Enlightenment
- Details
- Written by AndEl

There doesn’t seem to be much attention given to the most important aspect of the Embodied Enlightenment process. And that is because that aspect has been considered a distraction at best, and at worst, unspiritual.
It’s an aspect that can’t be bypassed or ignored. Otherwise there is not much hope of integrating spirit, our full consciousness into our bodies.
If we want to integrate our soul into our body and our life, we must embrace the sensual nature of spirit. Not a new topic, for sure, to this blog. I have spoken about it in numerous ways. It’s not just an aspect of enlightenment, but it’s the aspect.
It’s an uncomfortable topic for various historical reasons. The physical body and all its functions had been considered base, a distraction from seeking god. And we don’t need to look too far to see how that is still played out in various religions. How suppressing the natural sensual expressions has led to some heinous acts. It became viral.
And over time, humans had lost trust in the body, and its ability to rebalance. The body stopped thriving and was susceptible to dis-ease, and aging. Our souls were wearing ancestral clothing. All of that served us in the old, dualistic system.
As our soul evolved, our old, ancestral physical body became a burden. It no longer represented who we truly are.
SPIRIT IS SENSUAL
The sensual nature of life is something that spirit is here to enjoy. And up until the initiation of the light body process, it hasn’t been able to fully enjoy it. The reason I bring this topic up yet again is because I see how even those of us on the forefront of the ascension can get stuck in the mind. Trying to do this enlightenment without engaging all the senses.
Granted for many, these ancestral bodies are uncomfortable, especially as we are going through a major transformation into light body. So the inclination is to remove our consciousness from them. But in order to set free the pain and disease and discomfort, it’s imperative that we acknowledge the sensual nature of our soul, of consciousness itself.
And as I have stated many times, part of the reluctance, especially as the female gender, is that we have been misunderstood, disrespected, abused and even killed for expressing that sensuality. (And men who are courageous enough to embody the feminine and embrace their sensuality). So it’s understandable that many want little to do with it.
But that’s why we are here now, as a relatively small but determined group of souls, to once and for all set free the pain and suffering. But in order to set the pain free, we need to also embrace and express that sensuality. And by sensuality I mean engaging all our human, physical senses and our E x p a n d e d senses.
We know how to do this naturally. It’s not something to be learned from a book. But the more we reside in the mind, thinking and analyzing things, the more difficult it is for this natural process to evolve.
During your day, take notice. How much of your time is spent in thinking about things? How much of your day is spent in actually enjoying the physical, the environment, your food. Your own body. Your body needn’t be or look a certain way in order to be enjoyed.
And enjoying your body is noted by….your body. It responds to your love, your touch, just as a child or pet does. The physical body acquiesces to the predominant consciousness. If your consciousness is unaccepting of your body or your emotions, of your humanness, your body and life reflect that back. It’s a simple but dynamic truth.
It is true that as we allow more light into our body, it does bring up things, illnesses, pain, diseases, to be set free. But is there still a part of us that is not willing to set them free? As I have said many times, the female gender identified herself as virtuous for taking on the pain and suffering of humanity. But now we are required to detach from humanity. To no longer process for them. Others will still be doing that. But it’s not our role any more if we want to move fully into our light body and claim our freedom.
WE WANTED TO STAY
The Ascended Masters of the past became enlightened and then left the planet pretty quickly afterward. They had not prepared their bodies to stay. They had an adversarial relationship to their bodies.
We could do the same, allow our enlightenment and just leave. And maybe that’s what some want. And that is fine. Our consciousness, outside of expressing through a physical vessel, is already enlightened. It is already free. But many of us wanted there to be at least one lifetime in which we walked the planet as embodied masters. We wanted to feel our consciousness totally integrated into our body and our minds. And we wanted to do it without paying a price, without prostituting ourselves, without compromising our soul. In a way that has not been done before.
Some of us wanted to be examples of a self loving, integrated human. Something that has really never been present on this planet by so many. It’s called evolution.
But in order for that to happen fully, there needs to be an opening up of not only the heart, but of the entire body. We must allow ourselves to receive our soul’s presence in a physical, visceral way.
That takes courage. It takes trust. We can give lip service to that trust, for sure. But to actually live it, to walk it. That’s bold. And many of us are.
From my own experience, there is nothing like it. As I begin to allow this awesome presence to feel and see and taste and touch and hear through me, there are no words to describe it.
Many of us are beginning to trust in this experience, and the rewards are something that makes it worth being here. Spirit, consciousness is sensual, it’s filled with fire. It doesn’t compromise its exuberance. We have noticed that a little goes a long way. It’s a potent and dynamic presence to say the least. And that presence is eager to express through us. Through our bodies, just as they are.
And spirit wants to express that joy. To share it. Here on Earth we have so many opportunities to do that, through being creative. And each and every one of us is creative in her or his own way. And there are a myriad of avenues to share that expression.
Many others want to receive those expressions. They are waiting to hear from YOU. And a by-product of all the self-love and sensuality is…..well, it basically is the solution and resolution to all the dilemmas here on Earth. One soul at a time.
So it’s not about waiting to be totally integrated in order to enjoy health and passion for life. It’s all about allowing our natural state of passion and joy and sensuality to bring that to us. Through us. You are all doing beautifully. Just less thinking and more drinking in of spirit and of life.
