You are not yet awake, but you can learn how to awaken. Very simply, the Holy Spirit teaches you to awaken others. As you see them waken you will learn what waking means, and because you have chosen to wake them, their gratitude and their appreciation of what you have given them will teach you its value. They will become the witnesses to your reality, as you were created witness to God’s. Yet when the Sonship comes together and accepts its Oneness it will be known by its creations, who witness to its reality as the Son does to the Father. T-9.VI.5: 1-5

To awaken simply means that one overcomes their social conditioning and becomes aware of their essential self. Sometimes it is easier to see past other’s ego conditioning to their Divine Spark within than it is our own. When we see the Divine Spark in another person we remember who we, essentially, are.
In Unitarian Universalism some of us join together to affirm and promote the inherent worth and dignity in every person. When we perceive the inherent worth and dignity of each person we encounter, we become more aware of our own inherent worth and dignity.
Today it is suggested that we look for the Divine Spark in each person and connect with it and experience it within ourselves (plural.) Jesus said that the Kingdom of God is within us beneath our social conditioning.
