We are the Knights of Awakening! We are a group of Mental and Spiritual explorers that share a foundational set of beliefs which are; 11 “Knightly Agreements”; Responsibility, Respect, Family, Grace, Courage, Faith, Hope, Mercy, Justice, Generosity, and Nobility. "Awaken the Knight Within!" is more than just a tagline here. This is what you will find here at the Knights of Awakening, a commitment to the pursuit of Service, Betterment, and Enlightenment.

Knights of Awakening Podcast: Episode 14-Precepts of Knighthood Part 5 of 5
The Precepts are simple, affirmative statements of action that we should seek to accomplish in the world as we walk our paths towards the benefit of ourselves and others. The precepts are simple yet powerful ideas that become habits the more we internalize and practice them. We have a total of 15 to talk about and today Charles and Justin talk about the last 3.
"I am brave and courageous. Taking action in any manner, whether it is popular or not, requires courage. Being courageous is not just acting physically; it is acting with right-action in all I do because it is the right thing to do."
"I am honorable and trustworthy. My word is my bond. I keep my promises, I honor commitments, and I praise those who are virtuous. My example is my honor."
"I protect the weak and defend the innocent. Whenever I can, wherever I go, whatever I do."

"I am flexible and practical, knowing that flexibility is vital in walking this path. When the wind blows hard against me, I do not break; I adapt."
"I am merciful and forgiving. Forgiveness is to be given if it is expected to be received. I seek justice but love only mercy."

Knights of Awakening Podcast: Ep3 "Our Founding Documents" Part 1
Charles and Justin explore and explain the KOA founding documents. In part 1, we have a conversation around the KOA Mission Statement.
Knights of Awakening Mission Statement
“We, the Knights of Awakening, serve our brothers and sisters in the world with Compassion, Truth, and Empathy. We practice daily our 11 Knightly Agreements which are;
Responsibility, Respect, Family, Grace, Courage, Faith, Hope, Justice, Mercy, Generosity, and Nobility. Today’s Knighthood has evolved and is more enlightened than its medieval counterpart.
There is the recognition that nobility is more a matter of the soul responding to its higher self, not blood. We carry and contain the spirit of Knighthood within us, which brings the obligation of service to humanity. The distinction of the modern-day Knight is those who seek self-betterment to make the world in which we walk and live better with each day.
The Knights of Awakening is a Universalistic organization. We respect that other Religions and Philosophies are practiced independently from our Order that shares common values and principles. We are open to anyone who pursues a path that serves the betterment of the self and others.”

KOA Tackles Knights, Jedi, and Curses! Halloween Special Part 2
Inspired by the article done by our fellow host Alethea, we engage in the question of Curses, what they are, and what the Knightly stance on them is. Charles and Justin flex their mental muscles against the weight of the biggest question any knight and mystic must face, when to do curses if at all, or are they a forbidden fruit? The second episode looks at Curses, the Knightly Path, the kind of Knights that exist in the world, and then finally the Jedi Knight. Should you as a Knight ever consider Curses? There is a lot that goes into that decision, and we hope this episode will help you in that difficult choice.

Charles and Justin flex their mental muscles against the weight of the biggest question any knight and mystic must face, when to do curses if at all, or are they a forbidden fruit? This first episode looks more at the definition of Curse, and the various ways magick and mysticism differs in the real world from fictional worlds to set the tone for the second longer episode.

Knights of Awakening: Moral Relativity
A discussion on the KOA Discussion group has inspired a show on Moral Relativity.
Knights Of Awakening Radio Program: Karen Schwob-Ticknor of the Jedi Praxeum Part 1 of 4
Today we have a conversation with Karen Schwob-Ticknor Admin and Head Instructor of the Jedi Praxeum.
https://www.facebook.com/groups/571193600365604
Jedi Praxeum was created from strong need in the Jedi community. For years the Jedi community has lacked a formal, thorough training course that covers all aspects of the Jedi path. There has been various attempts, but nothing that turns out fully trained active Jedi who contribute back to the community and helps continues our growth. Years ago there was several different training groups, master and apprentices, and programs, but Facebook took over forums and the interest was lost.
The classes consists of balance content between creating a deep connection to the Force, core Jedi philosophy and preparation for knighthood, as well as ingraining how to be Jedi at any time or any where. Classes may be 2-4 times a month, on Facebook chatroom, for 2-3 hours. There will up to 30 minutes of homework assigned at the end of each class. Students on the Knight route will need to complete the Jedi Assignments and the Trial (think final exam). The course is 3-6 months (depending on the voted schedule and unseen delays). There is no deadline for being knighted, only that you meet the requirements, which would take at least 3 months to complete.
The goal of Praxuem is to help train people to understand, respect, and feel the Force, to improve emotional responses to various situations, improve their life in anyway they wish to, to help others both on and off line, to develop friendships and connections, and help the Jedi grow into the dream we all have.

Social Media: Breeding Pride & Prejudice
Have you ever heard of Brain Hacking? If not, it's a topic that you should probably get acquainted with, because knowing what it is and how it affects your life and the lives around you can help open up understanding of the things going on in the US today. In this episode of Let's Regroup, KoA hosts Ally, Justin and Charles talk about what they've been seeing in the Social Media Sphere and how it compares and contrasts to the 2016 Election Cycle.
Knights of Awakening Radio Program: Tolerating lesser Ideals
Ashla Axiom #8: "To tolerate lesser things is wise and kindly as this cultivates inner strength, calm and patience."
K.O.A. Shorts: Justin on "Taking out the Trash"
If a philosophy cannot be practiced, it is not worth the paper it is written on. If a perspective cannot be explained and shared, then it is in need of a re-evaluation. If people in your life are destructive and harmful to you and your path, then you should look for those who are going to support and hold you up. If your beliefs no longer serve you along the way, then perhaps you should consider growing past them. We are all at different points in our journeys, be considerate to others and to yourself.
