Spiritual Awakenings can be a smooth ride or a rough ride, its depends on several factors not all of which I am aware of, if you have studied eastern texts or indigenous cultures they speak of preparation for spiritual experiences, centuries of practices passed down verbally and textually by knowledgeable men and women who "prepare those who show signs" for what they will be awakening within themselves. This road to awakening has on it "Pitfalls" that if your not prepared for can distract, this isn't a bad thing really as the Universe has an endless supply of guidance, love and patience.
This is a Interesting Letter by a man named Sri Aurobindo about this process.

Of course mythology is full of these stories, These are tales that deal with personal spiritual growth as well as a Cultural & Universal Jungian Archetypes.
Joseph Campbell tells many of these tales in books such as;
The Hero with a Thousand Faces (1949)
The Hero's Journey (1987)
When you no longer are compelled by desire and fear . . when you have seen the radiance in eternity from all forms of time . . when you follow your bliss . . doors will open where you would not have thought there were doors . . and the world will step in and help.
Joseph Campbell
I have found that you have only to take that one step toward the gods, and they will then take ten steps toward you. That step, the heroic first step of the journey, is out of, or over the edge of, your boundaries, and it often must be taken before you know that you will.
Joseph Campbell
