Laura Achrem describing ego death and spiritual awakening during the dark night of the soul

Note: The Denial of All Known Truths – Spiritual Awakening & Ego Death - or how to die in order to truly start living

Spiritual awakening is less about sudden epiphanies and more about the steady collapse of everything you once thought you knew. As structures fall—identities, roles, protective masks—what remains is an invitation to confront your shadow, integrate what’s been hidden, and face the pain that’s been avoided.

Ego death is not losing yourself, but shedding what no longer serves so a truer self can emerge. This process is raw and lonely, yet behind the darkest nights lies a profound rebirth. When old truths dissolve, life begins anew—not in spite of the pain, but through it.
