ENGLISH DESCRIPTION With profound honesty and emotional connection, Maryell speaks of her spiritual learning, of ancient practices, such as meditation, and of sacred plants that work as tools in this journey of self-discovery. Through these experiences, she learned how virtues not only transmute afflictions, but are also powerful guides to cultivate a fuller and more meaningful life. Sometimes, human beings seem to have it all: somewhere to grow professionally, financial abundance, and wonderful projects, but they are not happy. They feel empty and lonely, lacking a place in the world. In these pages, Mayell Cisneros tells us how she chose to turn away from a life based on actions and outward accomplishments, to find those virtues within herself that would help her experience humanity from a more equitable and compassionate place. Awakening is testament to an inner search that took the author on physical and metaphysical journeys through Indonesia, Colombia, Thailand, Mexico, and England. In her travels, she delved in unknown depths to understand that afflictions are crucial to her awakening and purification process, and that they are not obstacles, but experiences to make her confront pain and adversity. In moments of profound suffering and danger, when life itself seemed to be at stake, the author used her inner strength as guidance through these trials. This honest and courageous tale shows how human beings can reach, through observation and virtues, an even deeper understanding of themselves and the world around them
