What is the true essence of Spirituality?

-
Hello Friends,

I want you to understand, Spirituality is not just wearing orange cloth and wandering into Himalayas. It is meant to Harmonise your innerself and outer surroundings.

If you really want existential changes in yourself then you are ought to be the most gentle, most kind and most energetic person. A real spiritual seeked must always strive for perfection in himself and his surroundings too. The real fun is not chanting God's name. It is in improving his creations.

If you want to grow a rose plant in your garden, will you chant its name everyday?Will you sing it's glories around it?
You have to simply water the plant!

Only a lunatic thinks that just by muttering God's name he will attain perfection. Believe me, there is no one up there sitting on a golden throne crying and asking for your Bhakti. How come you pour milk to Shivalinga if hundreds of beggars are sitting outside the temple and weeping for food!

Don't just turn rosary beads. Have the power to turn this creation. Godliness is in the service of needy. The best help to the creator is only in improving his own creation!

We humans are never satisfied with the present moment, that's our nature. And that very dissatisfaction, and an inner agitation to evolve and assert ourselves higher and higher makes us who we are.

We aspire to obtain wealth, comfort, healthy life, but, essentially a life of inner satisfaction. Each individual, according to their own understanding, or according to cultural influences, defines for himself/herself what XYZ goal will fulfil their life.

Sprituality is the fruiting of mental evolution. It is highest of morality, highest of truths.

Now, this is what I mean by spirituality.

Signs of Spirituality:


For many people, their spiritual journey begins by being a part of a religion that was introduced to them by the people around them at birth. For others, this journey has nothing to do with formalised religion - they are exposed to other spiritual teachers, spiritual practices and beliefs from alternative sources. Regardless of where the journey begins, it is inevitable that each person, at some point in life, will begin to have questions surrounding this area, that takes them on a spiritual journey for answers. So what is a spiritual person? Here’s some of the most common signs that a person is embarking on a spiritual life:

Rising awareness - perhaps you feel different to usual, are questioning life, or are suddenly noticing things that you didn’t before. You may experience a wake-up call which opens your eyes to possibility. 

Changes in priorities and values - you’ve an urge to live more purposely and define what feels good for you. Is the life you are living aligned with who you are becoming?

You’re focusing on your inner world, tuning into your thoughts and emotions, feeling the urge to slow down and become more present.

You’re beginning to take personal responsibility, taking ownership of your thoughts and actions, instead of passing the blame to the external world. 

The spiritual experience will look different for every person, because we are all unique beings with our own emotional and spiritual path to walk. The combination of the vast teachings of this world of spirituality will open up the equally vast and wonderful world within you - you just have to be willing to explore it.

They are still in search of a purpose in life and a feeling of peace from within. They continue to search for answers and are free to question other people, study other religions and explore other spiritual teachings. This exploration might give them an insight into themselves that their original religious teachings couldn’t provide for them, opening the door to spiritual growth.
