Not even the most deranged Hollywood screenwriters would be able to create a sitcom as hilarious as your life when you awaken spiritually.

After the long, painful, and terrifying night of the soul, your reality constantly surpasses fiction. Everything became unstable, wild, and crazy.

So much so that you feel like quoting Groucho Marx and shouting, “Stop the world; I want to get off.”

But it’s not all bad; spiritual awakening comes without an instruction manual but with many tools (gifts) to face this new stage of your life.

Here are six mind-blowing gifts—with an unsettling side—that come with the rise of your consciousness.

1. You learn to read people better than a professional poker player. It’s not that you read the future in coffee grounds, but you can read and guess what cards they will play. You read their hearts; you detect the engines that drive their lives. You sense their desires, self-deceptions, sabotage mechanisms, guilty tastes, unspeakable vices, and even the relationships they tend to get involved in without knowing anyone in their particular microcosm.
