Spirituality

[Guest guest]

Is there any such thing as spirituality? To accept spirituality is to accept the

concept of God. Spirituality revolves around GOD or the supreme soul at its

core. Everything emanates out of GOD. That is the fundamental point put forth

in all the scriptures, religions and by enlightened ones. If something emanates

then it has to end and it is said that everything ends in GOD. Hence GOD is one

with no beginning, no end, ageless, timeless, space less, dimensionless and is

also referred to as void. It is said that everything that exists and that we

see was created out of God's will and is hence referred to as his creation or

manifested form.

The manifested form had to sustain or had to have a life of its own, hence laws

were created to reproduce, sustain, destroy the various countless objects and

species that contribute to these manifested forms. Laws exist for each

manifested object and species from the smallest to the greatest. Some we have

discovered over time like the laws pertaining to our planet and species that

exist in our planet. These known laws of nature form the basis of all branches

of Science. All the laws that are known to us thus far are limited to what can

be experienced through our five senses of touch, smell, sight, sound and

feelings. This is so true for the species and objects around us also. After

creating the universe, God is said to have felt the need of a creature that can

appreciate his creation and had the intellect to differentiate between these

manifested forms and the pure unmanifested form. So God created mankind. Like

other laws of nature, laws were created to

reproduce, sustain, and destroy the human being. Since God wanted this creature

to have the intellect, he created a reflection of his own self called the soul

to reside in each human being. To follow everything else in nature, Laws were

also applied to the soul as well. The human body follows the laws prescribed to

reproduce, sustain, die and the laws of other sciences, whereas the laws of the

soul are not clearly visible to the five senses that this human body possesses.

 

Spirituality is the path that enlightens one to the laws governing the soul, its

effects and the path that a soul needs to take. Spirituality is one such science

that is mystical and not yearned for, since no gain is visible to the seeker.

Unknown the soul traps itself in this dilemma of not knowing the reality and

falling into the cyclical laws of nature viz. reproduce, sustain and destroy.

At the appropriate moment, the soul is made aware of its reality by associating

with the wise ones and from then on it embarks in spiritual pursuits. Even while

pursuing spiritual paths, both the body and soul are subject to the laws of the

nature. That is what makes the path of spirituality very difficult to pursue.

To successfully tread the path of spirituality a Guru or teacher is needed who

can safely guide the soul through the difficult path. On this day, let us pray

to Sadguru Shri Sainath to grace all the souls and help each soul in its

journey.
