Spirituality, What does it mean?
Defining spirituality is a challenging task, and opinions may vary. However, the essence lies in recognizing that we are all on a spiritual path, and expressing this awareness is what truly matters.
Spirituality manifests in various forms, and I'll share my perspective and some insights in the hope that it encourages you to explore life from a soulful viewpoint.
I place great emphasis on the soul, perhaps at times coming across as preachy unintentionally. My rationale is simple—I don't claim to possess extensive knowledge, but I believe that aligning our lives with our souls can make life more beautiful and magical.
In my understanding, we are souls—divine spirit energy—housed in a body. Listening to our souls becomes imperative once we experience awakening. The soul's cry for freedom signals a transformative journey towards a more meaningful and significant life. Each person's spiritual path is unique, and answering the soul's call for freedom is crucial; otherwise, life might feel like a graveyard.
From a global perspective, spirituality implies a connection to something beyond ourselves, transcending the body and ego. Awakening involves a search for truth, a realization that external factors cannot bring lasting happiness or fulfillment. This awareness leaves us yearning for something deeper and more enriching.
Personally, after awakening, I've felt a sacred transformation—a profound, unparalleled passion for the unseen, a freedom that connects me to self, others, nature, and the divine. Many others have described awakening as a sense of being alive and connected to the unseen. The common thread is a connection to something beyond our immediate senses.
This freedom, for me, keeps the connection alive with the self, others, nature, and the divine, including contact with the higher self or God. Meditation serves as a powerful tool to uncover this freedom. By quieting the mind, we allow the soul to emerge, sharing insights that may seem unimaginable. The key is not just to receive these messages but also to act upon them.
Everyone in this world is spiritual, whether they acknowledge it or not. Souls mature and enlighten at different paces, but the ultimate destination is enlightenment. The journey may be unique for each person, but the essence lies in recognizing and embracing the spiritual path.
