For some of us, spirituality is
considered a religion, and for some
it is not. For some spiritualists, we
still see them dealing with
their spiritual belief and see them
stuck between two worlds. One
world is the "new belief system" based
on our personal growth, soul
growth and our evolution, and their second world is also attached to
one, or some part of, religion that makes it a hard time to let go
regardless of the reason, but still wants to move beyond that belief
system. That will create a conflict that when we decide we want to
grow sometimes we are not allowed to bring the old system with us.
That will slow us down. Think about it!!!
What do I mean by a "new belief system"? For many belonging to
spiritualist temples, churches or even centers, the "new belief
system" plays a big part and is proof of the existence of a Soul
after its departure from this plane. That is very good and an
important thing to do or prove. I believe that by doing this we are
emphasizing an important factor, but at the same time somehow
disregarding an even more important part, which is our (in this
lifetime) Soul existence and why we are here in the first place.
A person called a spiritualist is a person that outgrew all the
issues of hate, anger or frustration of traditions that are attached
to a specific set of morals or values. That spiritualist's
concern is for his or her own evolution first and then for the love
and compassion that he or she can bring to the world by respecting
another human Soul instead.
How do I define spirituality or being spiritual? In reality, it is
very simple and defies all the laws that our society has dictated to
us for many years.
Spirituality is not a belief system, not based on morals and values
but more on understanding and consciousness of our existence and
people should try to distinguish the differences.
Spiritual is simply a way of living. That's all! What do I mean
by this? Being spiritual is being free and basically living by your
own values, which assists in the growth of your own Soul and at the
same time helps us to respect a human being as a human being. You can
belong to any religion while still being spiritual.
Spirituality is not a threat to anyone in reality but is the next
step up for the growth of the Soul. Just think about it from that
angle!!! So we are here is grow and be in our spiritual path of
understanding.
Being associated with another Soul on your spiritual path does not
really mean you have karma to deal with that person, but in effect
you are receiving a gentle push, or being provided with a little
help, to go forward in your own personal growth.
Life is simple so let's not complicate it further regardless what
our lessons and experiences are in this lifetime.
