Spiritual Growth
Are you concerned with your spiritual growth? Spiritual growth is a natural phase of life that parallels our physical and emotional development through childhood, adolescence, and adulthood. Fully acknowledging our existence means acknowledging every aspect of our lives, including the spiritual, and recognizing that our spirit must grow just as our body grows.
Every society, every culture and every religion has beliefs prescribed to enhance the growth of the spirit. For centuries, Western culture defined spiritual growth in a religious context. However, many people today are questioning the value of the spiritual, while others are seeking answers in non-traditional belief systems. Hungry for spiritual food, the spirit demands answers, and our questioning reflects our desire to reexamine old systems and beliefs in preparation for a new system, a new viewpoint, a new approach. Traditional answers are being cast aside to make way for answers that are just filtering in from the sources of light. Beliefs evolve as humankind changes and evolves. The term “New Age” encompasses the many facets of this new model.
We are complex, multi-dimensional creatures designed to reach a higher place, and each level of our being requires its own kind of fuel or food. For example, our physical self requires breakfast, lunch and dinner; our emotional self requires love; and our spiritual self requires light.
When we finally acknowledge our spirit and its hunger, we are ready to define the diet our spirit will follow – that is, the path, the particular teaching.
Our society is experiencing massive change: the growth of our population and the explosion of new technology are only two indicators. However, human history and the history of the universe are not tied solely to one world or one level of existence, and despite the changes taking place we have to continue to look for ourselves and for answers. Our spiritual hunger represents our need to nurture ourselves on the spiritual level, and to find the most current sources of living light.
For me, that living spiritual food is provided by the guides who have come to many of us. Guides are beings who live on another plane of reality. They offer us a fresh source of spiritual teaching, and provide living answers for our spirits by communicating with us in our minds through channeling. The guides are offering a particular message for these times; they answer our personal questions and teach us in our own terms of reference. Their words are uplifting and are phrased in modern terms. They are not jealous, and do not require us to adhere only to their point of view. Their loving words offer only assistance and advice; they ask nothing of us but that we find our healing. We are in a phase when these teachings can do us the most good, yet we are free to include other teachings as points of reference. My own world view includes the Scriptures and Eastern ideas, and yet there is no conflict. In the end, all points of view will be reconciled; all rivers will reach the same ocean.
What will follow this coming phase I cannot even guess. What will the future be like? Will it be the age of Messiah? Will it be like Star Trek, where the future is hopeful, poverty has been overcome, and everyone can fulfil his or her glorious destiny? Or will the future be more like the movies in which man battles machine or lives in post nuclear desolation?
We want to believe that some kind of perfection is just around the corner. Let us prepare for it by loving one another now. Let us uplift one another as individuals and as nations. Let us believe in each other’s perfection as we believe in the perfection of the Creator. Every part of creation is a piece of the Creator, so let us treat each other and all of creation with the love we have for God.
