Not Attaining Spirituality Leads to Suffering of Modern Man

We have the common person who is so caught in the circle of ignorance, poverty and illiteracy that he does not have any time to learn the moralities of life. But then, how can a man know about religion, God or focus on soul when he is on an empty stomach? Yet, it is the poor who still have some vestige of humanness and goodness in them. Even today, they consider a guest as a messenger of God and treat him as such, sharing magnanimously whatever little they have. Many city dwellers must have experience to selfless concern of a poor when in trouble. There is so much wisdom in their words, though they are illiterate perhaps, struggle for survival teaches them invaluable lessons. 

 

Where will these mindless pursuit of transient think lead? With these, man cannot be happier or peaceful. Today everyone complains of degeneration of values and corruption in all lifestyles. However, nobody seems to be prepared to break away from it and make a fresh beginning. Corruption has become a chronic future of our times, so much so that pupil has started treating it as a normal future. They no longer show righteous indication against corrupt practices, fights in justice of express any shock when cruel or inhuman acts are committed against their brethren. They choose to remain apathetic or give vent to important rage in the comfort of their drawing room chairs. However, there can be no hope for man if the present trend continues and man remains insensitive to the needs of others. Unless there is a revival of spiritual and moral values, this trend will continue and man will become very shallow. 

 

Modern man has dug his own grave by rejecting the moral and spiritual values upheld in the ancient scriptures of the whole world. Bible, Adi Granth, Ramayana, Bhagavad Geeta all contain pearls of wisdom which man has disdainfully rejected. Money has become God. It is to the sound of money that man responds and not the chiming of bells in the churches, temples, etc., which were once considered the above of God. 

 

Today, Faustus has universal significance. The people of today’s age have temptations all around. Everyone falls prey to these temptations. However, it is only after a certain time passes do they realize that uselessness of these materialistic things. Due to this, people of today commit so much sin, evil and corruption. The future of humanity is really in the hands of those who can bring about a reawakening of man’s higher consciousness. 

 

Spiritual Deprivation of Modern Man and Its Consequences

Man has become too preoccupied in the pursuit of material things. Money is the end in itself and not a means to an end. This excessive urge for materialistic gains has made him ignore the spiritual and moral aspect of life. He considers them obsolete and unproductive. Today, man is motivated to do something only if he is assured of reasonable profit. He has no time or inclination to pause for some time and ask himself where it is leading him. Such is the present social environment that even a child cannot remain unaffected by it. It is so easy to console a child with a promise of a gift and divert his mind from something parents have no patience to deal with. 

 

Life has become so mechanical. A child, until he becomes an adult, is pressurized every moment to excel and become skillful so that he does not lag behind in his studies. He is not given any lesson in the art of living. The total stress is on the art of how to earn a living. Therefore, from a very tender age, young minds become warped due to the obsessive preoccupation of the adults with security. Undoubtedly, there are certain basic physical needs cannot be met without money, hence the need to prepare for a means of livelihood. However, man is not merely a creature who will be content with getting food, shelter and clothing; he was also a soul, which needs to be nurtured. 

 

Nevertheless, today it is a pity that the spiritual aspect of the personality is totally ignored. No wonder that the youth feel so restless, demoralized and disillusioned! We have already seen how the young in the Western countries are turning towards East for solace and spiritual comfort. They experience a sense of ennui and feel impatient with the preoccupation of their parents with work and money. It is largely due to the disillusionment of such people that men like Rajneesh, Mahesh Yogi, who promise salvation and spiritual regeneration, have such a large flowing but escaping from the realities of life is not the solution. 

 

The present education system and the attitude of the parents are largely responsible for the state of affairs. It is a fact that today education is important in inculcating spiritual and moral values and parents in urban areas are too preoccupied with their own lives to pay attention of the growing children. Consequently, children feel a lack of sense of direction and fall easy prey to drugs and other vices at an early age. Thus, there are many consequences if one does not attain the spiritualism right from childhood. 

 

Do You Really Understand What Spirituality Means?

Spirituality is one of the main sectors in life. It plays a major role and especially when it comes to religion. However, not many know the exact meaning of spirituality. Most of them only know what it entails but cannot define it. Basically, there is no specific definition for spirituality. It all depends on the individual and the kind of religious beliefs he or she has. As we all know, there are different religions in the world with each having individuals that have varying spiritual enlightenment. As a result of this uncommonly thoughts, then there are a wide variety of definitions all defining spirituality.

 

The most common definition of spirituality is that it is some sort of inspiration to seek God and learn more about Him. This has to be done out of one’s own will and not forcefully. As a result of this, it tends to be far much easier to feel God’s presence inside our own hearts. The other very common definition of spirituality is that is the act of accepting the world just as it is. The world is full of all kinds of characters that bring about many imperfections to the face of the earth. However, through spirituality one is able to neither ignore nor criticize these acts and rather accepting them just as they are. In fact, one tends to get even more united with the world since they know how to handle them. 

 

In relation to the second definition, spirituality can also be termed as the belief in tolerance. This is the only way through which one can intermingle properly with the rest without ending up in some sort of misunderstanding. Tolerance also involves using more than one way to achieve whatever it is you want to achieve rather than forcing your way through one avenue. In addition to these, spirituality can also be termed as knowing all about you. This does not only mean knowing the outer self but also the inner self. In fact, the only way of living to true spirituality is by fully understanding your inner self. 

 

On the other hand, another very common definition of spirituality is that it is offering you. By now, you should all have known that spirituality encompasses a lot of values. Among them is self-offering whereby you sacrifice yourself for the sake of those around as well as other creature’s including plants and animals. However, for one to achieve this, then it is important that he or she gets rid of their ego completely.

Feng Shui for Your Office

Feng Shui is one of the ancient traditional practices that have been assimilated into the modern life. Basically, it is a form of aesthetic material that is believed to bring together the laws of heaven and earth. Using it was believed to help one live positively. This spiritual meaning gave it a vital role to play in the community. Today, people have taken to using the same system to decorate various areas that they frequent with belief that it will result into a positive life. Offices are major areas that really draw out the course of our lives. This is because whatever happens in our offices influences the rest of our lives. Therefore, many use Feng Shui to create a friendly atmosphere in the office as well as bringing productivity into the office.

 

When using Feng Shui in any area, there are spots known as Bagua where this items should be used. Therefore, first spot these areas in your office. A copy of the Bagua can be downloaded from the internet. There are a total of 8 areas, though one must give more priority to the areas associated with wealth and fame. Energy flow is one vital aspect that should be in our offices. Feng Shui provides us with specific tips that we can use to adequately provide our offices with appropriate energy flow.

 

To start with, the desk should be in such a position that it will face the doorway. Alternatively, it will diagonally face the doorway. The aim here is to face the doorway and not letting you back face the door. On the other hand, if there is more than one desk, the arrangement should also change. Two of them should face the door in a diagonal manner while the rest should face the center of the office. 

 

The kind of classroom arrangement should not be used; no matter the number of desks. Find a way of avoiding the back to back arrangement. Secondly, make sure that the office opposite yours across the hall way is in proper alignment. If this is not the case, place a mirror in front of the offices, this way you can clearly see what is going on the other end. 

 

Walls should also be proper. Start by removing any kind of dulls artifacts on the mirror. This includes the likes of mirrors or portraits. Partitions should not be there but if a must, place a mirror on the partition. Finally, give the wall a sense of life by placing some plants on them. 

 

Feng Shui for Your Bedroom

Before we go far on talking about what Feng Shui entails let us first define what it is. Feng shui is the earliest Chinese aesthetic system which is comparable to an art form. This system was discovered so many years back and is mainly famous in the United States and also in china. It is all about traditional folklore. It also involves spiritual powers on Feng Shui. Most of its teaching is usually based on spiritual relationship between heaven and earth. This practice is mostly made up of a combination of Chinese and east Asian religion. And so, it tries very much to stabilize the two or show positive Qi. This is a term that is mostly used in martial arts and it is a force that is general in life and it is mostly believed by practitioners to move to everything. 

 

It is believed that there are two types of Qi. There is the positive one and the negative one. If you bring the positive one in your house, you are assured of success in everything that you do at your home. The chief in Feng Shui is the yin and yang which are opposite polar and they have to stay in perfect balance and agreement. You can apply the theme of Feng Shui in your room by aligning and placing items in balance. These items could include doors, windows and also rooms and homes. In the current situation this art is trying to balance our lives in our respective homes and not only items in our homes. 

 

It teaches us that when you remove some of the items from your sleeping rooms you are able to keep positive Qi. The things that you are supposed to remove from your room so as to raise a positive Qi are like removing computers, TVs and working out equipment from your room. When you do not do this, then you are prone to lose this positive Qi. Your bedroom is supposed to be a place for resting and with lots of harmony but when you add other things it ceases being a calm place for resting. Your room should also bring out a sense of energy and so you can ensure a flow of energy by using colors. This has been shown in color theory and psychology to bring about true benefits. 

 

Some colors like red, orange and also yellow have been discovered to bring confidence and acknowledgement in a room. Other colors such as green and brown show sustenance, medicinal and development. Many people apply this art of Feng Shui in their homes so that they get the power of positive Qi in their homes.

Getting in Touch with Your Inner Self with Yoga

Yoga is a good way of meditating and simply having ample time with yourself. As a matter of fact, through yoga, one can actually speak to his or her inner self. To some, this might sound to be like a time waster. For those who have tried it, the story is not the same. I am sure that they consider it to be very helpful to their lives. It helps them concentrate and understand that which they could not understand before. In addition to this, yoga also has some benefits on the physical body.

 

Basically, yoga links the mind and the body. This makes it become one whole that can coordinate properly. As a result, one tends to connect to their inner self enabling them to listen to their inner self. This act is what defines the integrity that the individual will possess. This is because the act of listening to your inner self will help you awaken, you’re your integral self. With such prowess, various external feelings will not be a major hindrance in your search for inner peace. These are feelings such as pain, ecstasy or even bliss; none of them will come between you and your inner self since concentration will be at its peak. 

 

By speaking to oneself, one tends to fully be in control of your body. One finds himself having sunk deep into his inner self and exploring what makes him. This basically means that one wanders round the wonderland found inside him or her. As a result, one tends to access even the soul. However, this only happens to those who practice this for quite some time and becomes well conversant with the connection between inner self and the body. Not every Tom, Dick and Harry can do this; it takes years of practice to finally reach this stage. 

 

By doing this, one can be a judge of himself. This means that one normally feels his inner self telling him that whatever you are doing is not correct, stop it! Basically, people base their thoughts of what is good on the normal truth that is in the society. This is not the case with yoga practitioners. According to yogis, one’s wisdom should lie in power of one to listen to him. This implies to the inner sense that tends to be superior than the other laws of the earth. 

 

Spiritual Enlightenment According To Zohar

Spirituality has brought about a lot of fuss in the world today as many try to come up with the real definition of spirituality. Many have tried it but none has ever come to a conclusion. However, one thing that they all agreed on is that there is spiritual enlightenment and it varies in different individuals. This depends on the religious devotion shown by one. As a result, many decided to research deeper on the qualities of a spiritually enlightened individual. This dates way back in 1995 when Goleman wrote a book discussing on this topic. At the time, he referred to it as spiritual quotient in relation to IQ; intelligence quotient. In the book, Goleman stated that the spirituality quotient is based on the ability of the left side of the brain. 

 

Later on came Dana Zohar who in collaboration with Ian Marshall came up with another whole new dimension of spiritual intelligence. They said that it was more than the left side of the brain but far much bigger. In the words of Zohar, “Spiritual intelligence is the ultimate intelligence in human beings”. As a matter of fact, he came up with a series of definitions related to spiritual intelligence.

 

To start with, Zohar said that spiritual intelligence is the state of having complete self-awareness. This is simply the act of being completely aware of your entire self; knowing each and every aspect of the inner and outer you in details. In addition to this, you also have to know that there is a connection between you and the entire universe. Secondly, a spiritually enlightened individual is said to be led by visions and values. In sort, this is what many may refer to as idealism. In the end of it all, this tends to bring about a spirit full of humanity. This is why it is said that spirituality is defined by humanity.

 

Thirdly, it was also said that spiritual intelligence is highly characterized by having a holistic perspective of things. This basically means that one tends to see the connections between various things and just how these connections link them. However, this requires one to be open minded and interested in everything happening around them. On the other hand, Zohar also said that spiritual intelligence gifts one the power to use adversity for the betterment of him or herself. Instead of lamenting about the problems, a spiritually enlightened individual faces them and celebrates the diversities since he or she has the ability to turn them around.  

 

The Different Stages of Spirituality

Spirituality enlightenment has to consist of the body the mind and the spirit. The basic goal for attaining spirituality is enlightenment and once attained, one senses the unity of the spirit, that inner peace and being able to abandon the earthly mental and physical engagements. For realistic reasons, achieving spiritual enlightenment has some few steps or rather stages. There are three of them and in each one of them, one evolves greatly. 

 

The very initial stage is animality where people have a bad tendency of putting themselves down or lowering themselves. Here one encounters and lives as any person would, in reality. One might occasionally participate in the normal activities like talking, socializing, gossiping, working, planning for their future and so on. One experiences just about everything that everyone else does be it heartbreaks, victory, losing a loved one but the unique thing here is the fact that one begins taking signals to uplift their soul’s enlightenment in the direction of attaining a more significant life. It is at this very point where you are getting everything as presented but at the same time you are trying your best to let go of the worldly things in your life.

 

In the next stage you ascend into humanity where you begin to negotiate with the nature of the human individuals. It is at this stage where a person relates with every person and objects in their surroundings and this makes them feel like disengaging with their own selves. However, the result is already getting active and shows that unity between the individuality and the supreme soul is actually taking place. This can be an incredible experience because enlightening of the soul guarantees that with the next stage things will be much better. 

 

In the final stage we have divinity whereby the religious experts in our present times assemble and combine using the very source in which individuals come from. Here we sought of have an isolation process because you no longer feel connected with your environment or the things you had a connection with earlier on. I call it sought of because it is not really a sense of isolation but rather you come into terms with reality that you are all that, you are everything. 

 

This is a clear explanation that spirituality enlightenment is taking over to provide you with the feeling of having a union with God. Divinity simply enables you to experience everything after humanity meaning you no longer own your mind or your body or your intellectual faculty. This is where your divine experience begins, where you are linked to God, the greatest level one can undergo.

 

The Power of Yoga

There are several ways of meditate that people use these days. One of the most ancient and powerful one is yoga. Basically, this is a variety of practices that were practiced in the Indian culture. They were termed as spiritual practices. It is believed that through yoga, one can understand past his or her ability. Using the meditation and asceticism that is associated with yoga, people tend to attain a level of insight that enables them to see past their eyes and understand various phenomena that many cannot with their basic human instincts. 

 

Yoga has existed for over 5000 years and is still going strong. The first place where yoga was used was in Mahabharata by the famous Lord Krishna. He was imparting the skill on one of his students known as Arjuna so that he may see life on another perspective and be able to live a quality life. Since then, yoga has set the pace for meditation practices. 

 

Yoga works in such a way that it unites both the body and the mind making them one strong whole. This way, one can use the mind to performing a lot healing practices on the body; at least this is what modern yoga is all about. For the ancient Indians, yoga was a way of understanding god by accessing the spiritual phase of life. 

 

The modern man has really grown into using yoga for a lot of purposes. These purposes can be termed as the power of yoga since it empowers man to do these things. To start with, it reduces stress and turns on a relaxing mode. It simply takes you off to a different world and helps you forget all the problems that are on the other side. In short, it can increase the ability of one to concentrate and control self. Secondly, it also said that yoga highly influences the physical body. It adds on some kind of physical strength as well as stamina. Thirdly, it helps one control his or her desires. This can be termed as self-control. On the physical body, yoga also increases the immunity power of the entire body system.

 

Yoga can also help one be highly tolerant to various kinds of pain affecting the body. This is basically due to the high concentration that enables one ignore the entire feeling. Generally, yoga has the power to enhance your mental ability on all fronts. That is just how powerful yoga is. 

 

Spirituality and Meditation

Spirituality entails a lot of practices; some are physical some are spiritual. Physically, there are activities such as singing of religious hymns or even sitting on the wheel of prayer. As a matter of fact, some go to an extent of doing certain physiological body routines before performing any spiritual activity. However, one of the main activities that link both spiritual and physiological activities is meditation. This is the process through which many spiritual individuals tend to connect with their inner spiritual realm and even connect with God. All in all, not everyone understands the importance of meditation in spirituality. This can only be explained by understanding the power of meditation.

 

Meditation is a vital tool for anyone who wishes to grow spiritually. For those who ignore meditation, they tend to suffer from unease. Notice the difference; dis-ease and disease. The latter is a disorder in the body while the other is a disorder in the spiritual self that results in some sort of discomfort. This is mainly brought about by that disconnection with God. In relation to this, meditation tends to connect our souls with God hence bringing about growth of the spiritual self. This is the main power of meditation in terms of spiritual. 

 

Basically, meditation is said to have several benefits to the mind, body and soul. This is because the three are linked together to form the real you. As for the soul, it gets its nourishment from our connection with God which can only be achieved by regularly meditating. Therefore, not meditating is denying the soul its food. This is hazardous; just like denying the physical body food. With this trend, we might end up starving to death and the same will happen to the soul. And a body without a soul is ‘dead’. Therefore, if you feel some unease, the n that is a sign that your soul is starving. Take action before tings get worse. 

 

On the other hand, there are various levels of meditation each meant to serve a particular purpose. Many have the will to meditate but end up frustrated in the end due to lack of results. Why do you think this happens? It is simply because they perform the wrong meditation practices for their level hence bearing no results. Fr more information on meditation levels, consult a meditating expert who will give you directions on the various meditation levels and their uses. Therefore, you will be in a position to choose. 

 

The Law of Attraction and Your Life

The law of attraction in our lives has become the in thing. Everyone wants to apply this law in their everyday activity. Talking about law of attraction draws a lot of attention. This is because all of us have dreams and we would want these dreams to come true someday. Most of us want a very successful life with lots of achievements and happiness. We all want to have our desires true. Therefore, we can say that the law of attraction in our lives helps us to tune our minds and feelings to draw the lifestyle that we want and not vice versa. The way we are living now was or rather is dictated by our conscious and subconscious minds which are very vital parts. There are several steps that one can use to get the law of attraction.

 

The first thing that you should do is to describe the type of life that you want and be able to see it in your mind’s eye. When you want something, you should ask from the cosmos and you should also have an unambiguous picture in your mentality of what it is. Recognition of your dreams and requirements first begins with forming a mental image of whatever you want. You should be able to discover ways of visualizing and also train yourself on how to feel the passion and the approach that follows. To visualize is very important because you are able to involve both your conscious and your subconscious mind. This enables the manifestation of your desire. You should therefore start feeling your image as if it were already with you.

 

The other vital point in implementing law of attraction in your life is thinking positively. You should always be an optimist. Most of the times you will find that majority of failures have got that negative attitude within them thus stopping them from applying this law of attraction. Many are the times we do not have confidence in ourselves because we are insecure. We usually give up very easily. If you want to achieve the success that you want, then you must be positive. Always think that there are different ways to achieve something. Having a positive verification is the most important thing. 

 

You should also be thankful always and be willing to share whatever you have. This way you will be able to attract more. Always look at what you have and not what you do not have. Another thing that you need is focus. You need not only to focus your mind but also your brain and energy not forgetting your time. The last thing that you need to do is take action.

There Is More to You than You Think

The person you look at in the mirror who is looking back at you may not be the person you think he or she is. Most of our self-awareness comes from our perceptions of how we think we appear to others. Just how accurate our thoughts about ourselves are, is usually dependent on our life circumstances and the people and events that have shaped our memories and our perceptions of the things that have happened in it. 

 

Our self-talk tells us about ourselves and if we listen long enough to it, it will speak louder than family and friends who often affirm our strengths and abilities. Not all self-talk is bad. Sometimes it says things, which give us a premonition, and keeps us away from harm. 

 

Others have achieved a sense of acceptance of who they are and where they fit into the world. For many people however, the public image they portray to others may not be a true reflection of their inner feelings. Self-talk convinces many people that there is nothing good in them or their lives. This creates tension and sadness that can manifest itself in destructive ways. It can affect relationships and health if not corrected. 

 

How do people develop the negative feelings about themselves? Often, they are the result of someone we love or trust saying or doing something that makes us feel bad about ourselves. Even though what we may initially know that what we are telling ourselves is not true, over time we begin to internalize and then believe it. It begins to affect the way we think and feel about ourselves and how we appear to others.

 

Escaping the negative feelings means learning to love the unique person we are. It means learning to allow others into our lives again without fear of a repeat of the hurt or rejection. We can do this alone by consciously rejecting the inner voice and countering it with a reminder of all the blessings and successes in our life or we can do it with the help of a trusted friend or counselor. 

 

Finding the inner strength to face our negative thoughts about ourselves is the first step to discovering that we have hidden qualities and strengths we are often not aware of. It is a journey that no person will regret taking, once they embark on it. 

5 Factors that Are Necessary for Personal Enlightenment

The concept of ‘to enlighten’ is very similar to the thought of ‘turning the light on’. When we think of personal enlightenment, it is easy to think of it as a ‘turning the light on inside me’. It is about getting to know myself. There are five factors necessary for this personal enlightenment. Learning these factors will change our own lives and the lives of those around us.

 

1.  Believe that Personal Enlightenment Is Necessary for Self-acceptance 

 

Many of us do not like, let alone love ourselves. Self-acceptance is only possible when we are comfortable with the person we are, physically, emotionally and spiritually. When we experience the ‘light bulb’ moment in our lives, we are at a turning point. We can use this moment to grow or we can choose to turn it off and retreat back into the darkness of our former selves. 

 

2.  Believe that Personal Enlightenment Is Necessary to Change Ourselves and Our World

 

Those who choose to explore personal enlightenment are usually self-empowered as they learn to recognize and then unlock the power of the person they are or would like to be. These are the Nelson Mandelas, Malcolm Xs, and Martin Luther Kings of this world. Their journey to enlightenment changed them so profoundly, it empowered them to change their world. 

 

3.  Believe that Personal Enlightenment Is a Journey, Not a Destination

 

Although we may experience a light bulb minute, this is self-awareness, it is not enlightenment. Our life is a journey of experiences and personal enlightenment enables us to make sense of those experiences as we meet them on the journey. As we apply what we lean each experience helps us understand ourselves more fully.

 

4.  Believe that Personal Enlightenment Is a Force for Good and Not Evil

 

The world is a global community and each of us is its member. As we learn about and then gradually progress to accepting ourselves, we are more likely to accept others and enjoy who they are and encourage them on their own path of enlightenment.

 

5.  Believe that Our Past Influences Do Not Control Our Future

 

As we accept that our past life influences have no control over us, we can learn from its lessons and apply them to our future. Our past often holds us captive to its mistakes. Enlightenment frees us to learn from them.

 

Getting in Touch with Your Inner Self

How often have you heard the old saying “I’m too busy to think?” All too often, this is true for most of us. Someone has said if we are “too busy to think, we are just too busy.” Very few of us spend time getting in touch with our inner self and this is to our detriment. It is only as we go on a journey of self-discovery that we can make sense of who we are, and why we are here. 

 

For some people, this might seem too much like a spiritual search and nothing else. This definition is far too simple. Spirituality is only one small part of self-discovery. Our inner self is the person we are when no one is around. Many people are scared of being introduced to their inner self and busyness is a means of “not having time to think” because it can be scary to think. Many people do not like their own company because then they are forced to think about things they can usually ignore. This makes some people feel very uncomfortable.

 

Other people have learned something important. We are more than just a physical being. We are also an intellectual being, a spiritual being, an emotional being and a social being. As we get in touch with our inner selves, life takes on a new meaning. A simple question to ask yourself is “what it is you want from life, and what are you doing to achieve it? If you can answer this, chances are you are comfortable with yourself.

 

Answering these two questions helps us maintain our holistic health. It helps us process the bad times as well as the good times. It helps us clarify our values and the things that are important to us. It helps to give our lives meaning and purpose. 

 

How do we get in touch with our inner selves? There is only one way we can do this, and it really is as simple as getting to know ourselves. This usually requires us taking some time each day to withdraw from the busyness around us. This has to be an intentional decision. Choose a time each day that suits your lifestyle, and a resource to help guide your thoughts and spend time in introspective thinking. Journal your responses and see the difference it makes in your life.

The 3 Keys to Creating Spiritual Growth

The success of such films as “Eat, Pray, and Love” reveal that we are more in touch with our spirituality, than we are often prepared to admit to ourselves. Increasing numbers of people are deciding to take a path of spiritual discovery, exploring a side of our humanity that for many of us we have not thought much about. Yet when we do decide to accept that we are not just a physical body, we may choose to go on a path of spiritual self-discovery. Here are the three keys to creating spiritual growth that will guide that journey.

 

1.  Do not be afraid to think outside the box. Expand your mind to the unseen world.

 

This first key is self-explanatory. There can be no spiritual growth without acknowledging that there is more out there than the physical dimension of our existence. 

 

2.  Spend as much time considering how to care for yourself spiritually as you care for yourself physically.

 

We spend a lot of time and money ensuring our physical growth is healthy. We follow the latest fad diet and spend countless dollars and hours at the local gym, seeking to look our physical best. We try to choose a balanced diet and make good lifestyle choices. 

 

The second key to creating spiritual growth is to prioritize it in the choice of how we will spend our day and the things we choose to do in our day. Just as there cannot be good physical health if we do not commit to healthy living, there can be no spiritual health and growth if we do not commit to spiritual health.

 

3.  Reading about spirituality will not create spiritual growth. Healthy body growth results from exercising our bodies. Healthy spiritual growth results from exercising our spirits.

 

We have all heard the old saying “no pain, no gain” and this is equally true of spiritual growth as it is for physical and intellectual growth.

 

The final key to spiritual growth is to spend time exercising our spirit by asking ourselves the tough questions:

 

·      Why am I here?

·      Where am I going?

·      How will I get there?

 

Whether we choose a religious or other path to find the answers is a personal choice, but unless we are willing to consider these questions and what they mean to us personally, there can be no spiritual growth.
