Stages of awakening:
- Normie under the spell of the enemy's indoctrination
- Initial loss of sense of reality as you notice things are "off"
- Separation into your own world as you question and research
- Self-importance as you begin to see yourself rising above those around in terms of understanding
- Disillusion as you encounter the "egotistical awake" who look down on not only ordinary people, but other seekers of truth
- Despair as you find efforts to awaken others rebuffed, and isolation grows.
- Trough of despondency as the rabbit hole unfolds into unbounded depth and dimensions
- Turn-around as you find your "pole star" of divinity and the holy, sacred, eternal.
- Humility as you accept you know next to nothing about everything, and return to a childlike wonder state.
- Contentment as you re-focus on your own spiritual growth journey that isn't contingent on what you know, but who you are.
- Enlightenment as you see beyond duality, and the whole yin/yang is visible.

It’s too bad though that so many will not get past step one. The ones I know will go down with the ship.
