Exploring Higher Consciousness Through Meditation, Past Lives, And Love
Michael Goddart shares profound insights from his spiritual journey, emphasizing meditation, past life awareness, and love as keys to self-realization. His writings guide readers toward awakening and inner peace.
Michael Goddart stands as a visionary author whose writings blend deep spiritual insight with practical guidance, inspiring readers to explore self-realization, higher consciousness, and a life filled with spiritual fulfillment. His works, including The Contentment Dividend: Meditations for Realizing Your True Self, A New Now, and In Search of Lost Lives, have earned him numerous awards such as the Nautilus Book Award and the National Indie Excellence Award, reflecting the meaningful impact his message has on readers worldwide.
Goddart’s spiritual journey began early, shaped by vivid experiences across many lifetimes. He reveals that twelve past lives ago, as a high-ranking government official connected with Tibetan Buddhist monks, he first sensed humanity’s potential to ascend to higher consciousness. Over the centuries, he lived as a priest in Prague, a monk in Slovenia, an Indian business owner practicing raja yoga, and a banker in Bombay, where an encounter with a God-realized saint profoundly fueled his current lifetime quest for spiritual truth.
Michael Goddart is a visionary author whose deep wisdom and transformative teachings illuminate the path to spiritual growth and enlightenment.
Having traveled to over fifty countries and worked in twenty, Goddart’s experiences have reinforced a core belief: at heart, all humans seek love, despite how it may be expressed or hidden. This universal truth inspires his mission to share spiritual teachings that empower others to live with greater awareness, joy, and love.
A key lesson from his time in India with enlightened teachers is the preciousness of human life itself—a unique opportunity to realize one’s fullest potential through self- and God-realization. Goddart stresses that spiritual evolution is a present and ongoing process, urging people to embrace this path fully.
When it comes to meditation, Goddart identifies a common misconception: many fail to understand that meditation can lead to pure, unalloyed joy and wonder. He emphasizes the importance of having a living Teacher or Guide—one who has realized divine unity and can initiate seekers into meditation on the Sound Current (also known as the Word, Holy Ghost, Logos, or Shabd).
In In Search of Lost Lives, Goddart explores how uncovering one’s past lives can shed light on inexplicable aspects of the present. Understanding past connections with others can explain feelings of immediate closeness or aversion, while revealing the soul’s spiritual journey helps individuals recognize both their growth and challenges across lifetimes.
Love holds the supreme role in Goddart’s spiritual philosophy. He describes love as our true essence and the ultimate goal of enlightenment. Through spiritual awakening, we shed ego and distractions, gradually returning to a pure, loving consciousness—what he refers to as LoveSource, the nameless One.
For aspiring authors interested in spirituality and personal growth, Goddart advises embracing the seeker’s path with curiosity and dedication. He encourages reading broadly, daily meditation, and trusting intuition to discern truth. Writing regularly—whether as an author or in a personal journal—can deepen awareness and support the journey toward self-realization.
Michael Goddart’s teachings and writings invite readers to embark on their own transformative journey, embracing love, wisdom, and higher consciousness as the foundation for a fulfilled life.
