What is spiritual awareness?
There are many different sounding answers all linked by a commonality.
No matter what spiritual path you have chosen to walk in order
to be more spiritually aware set aside time to strip away the
unnecessary tradition or dogma and in an ultimate distillation
the truth will be found.
You know all things, each of you holds the answers and yet the
fragmentation of yourself erects barriers to becoming whole and
to being. It is this fragmentation that separates us from spirit
and raises these kind of spiritual questions.
Who am I? Why do I feel something is missing in my life? Is this
all there is?
Isn't there something better?
Spiritual awareness or spiritual
awakening is the process by which we begin to explore our own
being in order to become whole and reunite our spirits with our
physical bodies in a commonality of purpose.
No matter whether you are just starting on your search or have
been an invertebrate traveller on the spiritual awareness path
the answers you seek have always been with you Perhaps in your
seeking spiritual awareness you have been seduced by a process
and simply not allowed yourself time to become aware.
Put aside all restrictions and limitations and allow yourself
to simply be. In this moment now look neither back nor forward
and allow yourself to see your spirit it is you, there, awaiting
your rediscovery.
Spirit is always within us yearning to be once again given freedom
to be and to become a whole part of each of us. It is not necessary
to struggle. Neither physically nor spiritually. It is your struggle
that leaves you confused and alone. Your purpose, that which you
seek, is there for you now and there are many paths to help you
become whole.
SPIRITUAL RETREATS
Becoming whole is simple, unique to you, and yet others have
trodden similar paths and may be of assistance to you as you travel
towards spiritual awareness just as you will be of assistance
to them.
In participating in a spiritual awareness retreat you can remove
yourself from the mundane, your everyday and allocate the time
for you in which you may really be still.
Spiritual retreats such as "Free
the Spirit" are as signposts on the freeway of life.
You may choose to take the direction, listen to those who have
gone before and ease your way, or continue to struggle and repeat
the lessons endlessly.
Stop! Be still! Listen to your heart and the love you have for
self and others and know your truth. Put aside the seduction of
mind and the glamour of this or that option and truly listen to
you, yourself. You will know the essence of truth when you allow
your spirit to be.
Take time now to meditate, for in meditation you empower your
spirit to be. As thoughts arise, acknowledge them and put them
aside but allow them no energy. Sit and observe that you are spirit,
you are mind, and you are physicality
Observe your mind, separate, you can observe your body, separate,
and you can observe your spirit, your essence, essential being.
You have the answers within and they may not fulfil your expectations.
Put aside expectations and your spirit will you with love beyond
all previous understanding. You will be free.
How? That's not easy I hear you say. Not true, it is as easy
as you are willing to allow it to be and as hard as your clutch
to the known and familiar will make it.
Mind and physicality will not easily surrender to your spirit
just because you have chosen to increase your spiritual awareness.
Others have trodden this path, some, a few, have seen the clarity
of truth that is a distillation of the essential you. Seek them
out wherever you might find them and use their knowledge to help
you light the way of your own path. Participation in a spiritual
retreat with a facilitator of integrity and truthfulness will
assist you to smooth your journey to full spiritual awareness.
You are your spirit; it is only your mind that is holding you
back in fulfilling your truth and becoming all you want to be.
