Awakenings in various forms always bring a sense of belovedness, revealing the wrong perception of being a separate, lonely entity in the world. Realizing the interconnectedness of all beings is seen as an affirming and beautiful discovery, accompanied by a feeling of love. These awakenings are described as seeing one's original face or discovering one's original nature, ultimately leading to the revelation of 'original love'. The speaker emphasizes that such experiences do not necessarily require grand revelations or huge enlightenment experiences.
