Religion, Gurus, Right and Wrong, Optimism and US as Spiritual Seekers.
Hello, we have addressed six issues in our previous posts and these are:
These issues are the foundation on which we aim to start our spiritual journey. Bear in mind though that all humans are on this journey as soon as they gasp for air upon arrival on this earth. The fact that some of us take an awareness of it, does not mean that we are chosen amongst the mass, no, it is just that we have reached a stage in the evolution of the self where the distraction power of the manifest is lessened by our progress made in previous lives. It is a trait of the Ego to have us feel special and different from others, beware of it.
But see here, all things in the Universe has to be balanced, it’s one of the Laws, duality. Do not gauge balance here on your moral and social norms, the Universe does not work according to the manifest’s laws nor its time scale. So, we achieve progress of the self but when we come back to continue the work, the manifest has moulded itself in a different shape, actually it is continuously mutating. There are different moral and social norms, distractions like technologies etc, interactions has changed due globalisation etc etc. There are new set of rules on the manifest, and this complicate matters.
Being aware of our heightened awareness, does not mean that we should feel above the manifest’s laws and norms. We have to find our place where we can continue our progress whilst optimising the components which makes up the manifest. For example, let us take our solar system, each planet has a specific role to play, remove one and the whole balance is broken to some extent. Think of the Sun and its emanations as the manifest, each planet is disposed at the right vector for it to function according to its role, for there to be life on Gaea it should be at X distance to the Sun, plus other things of course, but let us concentrate of the vector aspect here. The same way a planet position itself in our system according to its role, we position ourselves in the manifest to optimise our progress according to our level of awareness.
If we try to impose our newfound awareness on others, then we are like comets and asteroids. There is nothing wrong with that, they have their purpose too.
Thus, to progress swiftly and smoothly we need to address these accordingly;
- Respect the rules, laws, and norms of the society you live in. Some of us will eventually reach a level where they will be able to use these to their advantage. The same rules, same laws, same norms, but viewed from the standpoint of the Higher Self empowers tremendous power of manipulation in the Self
- Religion. Go back to the basics and engage in devotion by working the faith muscle. Whatever system of belief, even the deceiving ones, if we detach from the mass and engage into solitary devotion, this leads to a new level of interactions with the Higher Beings. There is nothing wrong in participating in cultural festivals and the likes, just beware of crowd psychology
- If we are to evolve further, we cannot be dependent of another’s will and actions. Gurus and spiritual leaders have their role to play. They are needed, and here too even the false one, to pull people towards wanting to better themselves. That is it, their role stop there. Once you are on the path, the Laws and Truths you are seeking do not lie in the mouth of Man. And remember the planets, satellite remains satellite forever, if you are not a satellite, move on
- Emotions are to be embraced and lived as explained in Should we avoid negative emotions?. It is the mean to remove the effect of the manifest on the physical body. But as explained, most of them are to be expressed in the mind only. Further down the path each of us will learn when the need to relax the non-action rule applies
- Right and wrong. Accept the fact that R&W as we know it now is a product of the manifest, it does not apply to the Spiritual Realm. Thus its importance to the Spiritual Seeker is trivial. But, as long as we are here as humans, we have to abide to the prevailing notion of R&W of society, we are not here to judge, we are here to move forward. Some of us might feel the urge to be comets and disturb the system, this is not advisable as it is reserve for but a few, and this too after they have achieved their enlightenment, they are commonly called Martyr, so think about it
- And finally, we now understand what is a Leap of faith. To be independent and devoid of the need for anything or anyone to define our state of bliss. Bliss is in existence itself. Find bliss and you have found the safest and smoothest route to engage your journey. The emphasis here is on reducing dependence. Adopting that stance will enable the transfer of emotions and energies from base chakras to higher chakras for transmutation, these energies are fear resultant of previous engagements we had and from which we progressed. These energies have to be transmuted to a higher level of vibrations to enable progress. Nothing is to be discarded, it must be transmuted to a higher vibration.
There you have it, equipped properly for the journey.
In our next article, we will address the topic of occult, mystical, supernatural, or magical powers, practices, or phenomena. See, by now we have understood that we dwell in and are governed by energies that are beyond our understanding and reach unless we attain a certain level of vibration. Once we reach the level of vibration needed to
tap into these energies, it is crucial that we refrain from learning how to tap into these through another fellow human. The risks are too high, and we will see why.
And to finish we want you to think about something. It is said that love is the ultimate power, nothing can stand against it. Do you think Love we understand love in a spiritual context? Remember, we use words to communicate, this is a very primitive form of language. Can we really define Love?
Thank you for reading.
Ciao for now.
