The Darker Elements
In Awakening 52, you share with readers the intense spiritual experiences you encountered following the event that nearly took your life in 2014. Why was this an important book for you to write?
Ever since this experience, I felt the need to write a book about what was felt, seen, and heard. I needed to understand and voice what I felt was important messages of faith in what I had encountered. Given that there are so many different views around religions and cultures that divide, for me, it was about creating an understanding and a pathway of self-discovery and a reach to the reader that resonates with the individual. If it makes people more spiritually aware I felt it could create and bring peace to people in a hectic world.
I appreciated the candid nature with which you told your story. What was the hardest thing for you to write about?
The subject was difficult as I really had to step out of my own shadow as it is very personal. Everyone suffers at points of life around death, and it is a sensitive subject. Venturing into the darker elements was not easy as energies felt in this space, I did not want to give it credit or existence, but it was shown with clarity and was written as a warning.
Is there anything you decided to omit from your book that you now wish you had included?
There is so much more that I could have added around impacts into life and how I saw the darker aspects leaching into society, how this energy collectively grows but plan on writing another book in the future as there is so much more to this awakening experience. Awareness could lead to great change in society as it was seen throughout the visions and remembrance, so much more can be written that could assist people in finding self and creating a healthier and more unified world.
What is one thing you hope readers can take away from your experience?
I hope readers can look within and learn more about themselves, understand that life is not the start or the end, and give some guidance into being more aware. To bring comfort to those who may be suffering the loss of loved family members, friends, and peers by understanding they do live on in spirit and soul in a place of immense love. To understand that love is buried within every living person and by connecting to this love and changing views bringing better relationships and creating positive change. If Awakening 52 brings peace and understanding to the reader and alters lifestyles the messages from the master have been heard as his presence was something I will never forget.

Awakening 52
In Awakening 52, Jamie Smith recounts a moving spiritual experience that began with a near-death moment in 2014 and led to what he calls a “soul awakening.” The book details his journey through what he describes as portals into the afterlife, guided by eternal beings and flooded with divine love, revealing deep metaphysical truths. Across 22 chapters, Smith uses vivid, emotional storytelling to connect his near-death vision with lessons about faith, life purpose, the soul, and human existence beyond the physical realm.
Smith doesn’t pretend to have it all figured out, which actually makes the book feel more relatable. Right in the first few chapters, he takes us through the intense pain of cluster headaches and his desperate, heartfelt prayer at 2:52 PM, the moment that opened the gateway to his spiritual odyssey. It didn’t feel like a story he polished for effect; it felt like he ripped it out of his chest and laid it bare. His description of the “two-dimensional picture” appearing on his wall was so specific and unusual that it stuck with me; it was the kind of moment that cannot be fabricated, and it set the tone for the deeply personal nature of everything that followed.
Smith’s writing is unfiltered and emotionally charged. While it occasionally digresses and leans heavily on repetition, this stylistic choice ultimately proves effective. It conveys the sense that the author is not merely recounting experiences, but emphasizing the profound impact of each personal revelation. A notable example appears in Chapter Three, Cleansing of Soul, where he describes reuniting with the souls who shaped his life. His recollection of mowing a neighbor’s lawn as a child is unexpectedly moving, not merely nostalgic, but imbued with a sense of reverence. Through such memories, he transforms ordinary, seemingly trivial interactions into meaningful, even sacred, soul connections. The passage evokes reflection on one’s own past and the individuals one might hope to encounter again in a realm of pure light, a deeply resonant and powerful notion.
The imagery, such as valleys of light, swirling cocoons of love, and temples of wisdom, at times, evokes the tone of a guided meditation script. However, it raises a fair question: who is to define the appropriate language for describing a soul’s journey? There is, undeniably, a sincere charm in his unwavering commitment to articulating the ineffable. Chapter Fourteen, Valley of the Hidden Sun, stood out to me. The notion that diverse cultures and belief systems ultimately converge toward a singular, divine source offers a vision of hopeful universalism that is both compelling and deeply resonant.
Awakening 52 reads less like a conventional book and more like a deeply personal confession, an urgent, almost intimate appeal as if the author is quietly imploring the reader to understand something difficult to express. It is not a work that will resonate with everyone; those who seek empirical evidence or neatly defined theological frameworks may find it lacking in structure or rigor. However, for readers who have ever gazed at the night sky and felt a longing for something beyond the tangible, for a deeper, more mysterious truth, this work may offer a powerful sense of recognition. It is heartfelt, sincere, and unmistakably human. And perhaps that, ultimately, is its greatest strength.
