What does it mean to be spiritual? The answer to that, well it depends on the person,because you need to know and understand yourself,to truly answer that question. How we identify with ourselves, how we identify with the world, how we interact with it. I have come across people who consider themselves to be highly spiritual and who make a living out of it. Who preach about the importance of living a certain way and how one can achieve it and yet they look down on others. They place themselves on a pedestal, believing they are more enlightened.
To me, they are some of the least spiritual people that you can come across. Spirituality is not something to be bought or sold, it’s not a competition or a popularity contest. It is a path, that we mostly have to discover for ourselves. No one can tell you who you are, who you should become. Yes you can choose to explore different ideas or practices, but what you really need, is to begin to listen to yourself.
To discover who you really are, to see past the veils of illusion that so often surround us and the world we live in. Veils that we have put in place, by denying who we really are and in defense of who we are not.
Spirituality is a journey back to self. So that we can begin to look deeply within, with forgiveness, compassion, acceptance and tolerance and free ourselves to be who we were always meant to be.
We are all made up of energy, a web of energy that connects us to the earth and to one another. When you connect with that energy, you are connected with your internal knowingness, your intuition. It allows you to follow what you feel, what you know to be your truth. This is your greatest guide in life and yet we have been taught to ignore it, to mistrust it. This our greatest power!
But we are so easily deceived and controlled when we are disconnected from our inner knowing. So It serves ‘those who should not be in power ‘( thank you @montycashmusic) well, to have us feeling so disempowered. Now, more than ever, we need to address our spirituality, so that we can grow and overcome our fears, so that we can be free.
My spiritual self is deeply rooted in the earth. It is my connection to the cycles, to the seasons. It is my ability to see my place in the great web of life and the role I play in helping to bring more awareness, towards the need to bring about change.
It is embracing this global consciousness, that is bringing so many of us together, to serve the common good and rediscover ways in which we can live in harmony with the earth.
The more time I spend in nature,the more I experience the beauty that surrounds and I feel so thankful for the life I lead. Gratitude really helps to connect us to our spiritual self, gratitude that is fueled by love and respect for the earth and all living beings. It deepens our connection and our understanding.
Love
The universal Beat That connects us all
It is bigger than you and I.
Love is the breath we take,
The Air that we breathe,
It surrounds us
and propels us forward.
Love carriers our messages
and carves out our memories
Love is the Earth beneath our feet,
The soil that feeds and nourishes us
It is The pulsating rhythm that drives us and inspires us
that leads us to dream big and manifest our reality.
Love is the water that cleanses and anoints us,
the depths of which are beyond our comprehension.
Love is Fire
Fire that Creates, that transforms,
that consumes us.
Love is...........
Love is more than any words,
It is more than any feeling .
Love is the essence of our being,
It is who we are in our purest form.
Love is free and wild, it knows no limits, it has no boundaries.
Love is what LIFE IS ALL ABOUT.
Love is Living, breathing, it is believing.
Love knows no end, it goes beyond death.
It carries Pain, sorrow and frustration like a badge of honour.
Death is but another door way leading onto love.
Love carries us, it makes us, with love we are whole.
Love is the Universal Beat that joins us all together.
It is up to us, to strengthened it, to extend it, to help it weave it's way around.
Love is a force,
Love is a choice
How we live and die depends on how we choose to love.
Do not be afraid to open yourself up to love, to lose yourself to it.
Surrender to the beat and allow yourself to move as one, to be as one, to simply be in existence.
Love can be the simplest of acts,
yet the strongest of statements,
Your choice,
your life,
let love be your way!
