Book Description
Yaron Etzion: I am an experienced teacher, facilitator, author, and lecturer. Since 1999 I've taught Self Improvement seminars, Management consultancy, Personal Coaching and Coaching training courses around the world.
In the year 1999, after receiving Guruji's blessing to teach, I founded the Israeli Art of Living foundation, as the local branch of the International Art of Living organization.
In the year 2001, I founded a Consulting firm: Atman- Happiness at Work. Through its activities, I met thousands of people from all aspects of society: From inmates in prisons, coaching groups of managers and employees of large corporations, personal coaching to Executives and Principals, Heads of municipalities and so on.
During the years 2006-2008 I was lecturing in the Tel- Aviv University, Israel, in the Training program for Personal Coaching and Group Facilitators.
On top of my work as a Teacher and Coach, I have led a professional career in:
Technology (Mechanical Engineer), CEO and Founder of Start-up companies.
Business Development
Direct Management of Service, Sales and R&D companies in Israel, Europe and North America.
Since 2014 I have been residing in Canada with my wife and two boys.
I do hope you enjoyed reading this book, and encourage you to hand it over to someone else you may know, that might benefit from reading it.
This book is an invitation to a journey towards that realization. It was written with great love and respect to all the teachers who, throughout history, devoted their lives to the evolution of human consciousness. Their light and love have been, and still are, the birth place of this evolution.
Above all, a special thank you to my master, Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, Guruji, my teacher.
Guruji is a father, a brother and a friend on the spiritual path. He is my source of inspiration and knowledge. He is the driving force behind this book.
"Awakening- A Seven-Step practical guide to Self Realization" is a study book, not a novel, nor a philosophy book, a real guide, leading its traveler, step by step, towards a true transformation- one that you can actually experience and realize.
The book offers a well-built method, order, and logic. It offers a key to a life of inner freedom. In the first part, there begins the journey to our inner self, our essence, towards the anatomy of "Me." The second part is a description of a wonderful dialog between a teacher and students, unfolding a roadmap of how to implement the knowledge, the new understanding about that 'Me' in our daily lives.
Yaron Etzion, an exceptional spiritual teacher, walks hand in hand with his Master: Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar on the spiritual path. Through this spiritual harmony, Yaron came to the realization that what he was looking for, (we all are looking for) is already there, patiently waiting for him to wake-up and realize. And maybe the reason for his work is to share this knowledge, to invite others to use it and to help those lucky ones that comes across his path.
If you find it beneficial for you, tell others about it. They deserve it as well...
