That of growing spiritually I believe that many churches and temples of worship attribute it to him as if in their buildings they had a factory and here is the brew or potion for spiritual growth, now prays 20 Ave Maria, 20 our father, contributes with the tithe and you grew spiritually.(I respect people who think they find their peace of mind like that, but I totally disagree with the concept of peace of mind.)
Talking to an acquaintance gave me the idea of this post.
Growing spiritually takes much more and is very apart from just believing in God or in the deity you create.
Growing spiritually is about knowing you, what things you like, what things make you angry, and knowing why things disturb you or make you like them.
Find PEACE MENTAL, this for some is simple for others (I raise my hand) it costs too much.
Self-knowledge, self-control, assertiveness in what is said, and congruence between what you profess and in your actions, do not let rage rule your life, and be able to use your abilities out of hand.
For me those things make you grow spiritually.
It is your spirit that grows with these things.
You are the one who advances, the one who evolves and makes your environment better.
And as you grow as a person, everything changes, you have more fruitful ideas in business, you follow your true passions and put them into practice.
It is not necessary to have 100 years to grow in some aspect, sometimes people of small age get this.
You do not need a religion, or be a fan of something to grow.
Once I read the Bible I do not remember exactly what book or chapter or verse, but I said that God was everywhere, pick up a stone and there it is, in nature, wherever you want to be.
That and coupled with other reasons is the reason why I do not believe in religions, they make me relax somewhere and make a prayer.
And excuse me if I am shod but for me growth is not sought in a temple of adoration, it is something more that goes in you, in your actions, in seeking harmony, leaving resentments, and moving forward.
It is not about seeking perfection, because we are not, nor can we be.
But if it can be improved and changed.
It's about developing and doing things with love. (It sounds very cheesy but when you do the things that you like and are passionate about, things definitely flow and even if you do not believe it goes well).
Do you want to do something great? Help your loved ones without being asked, do good deeds for them.
And in all this process we can not forget to breathe.
Be free, be you, know yourself and reinvent yourself, close cycles with love, and perfection without being haughty, only this way you will be able to do great things with your life.
