Journey into Self – Living the Spiritual Path

We are like unto a glass of water.  Initially, we are pure for we come from the Ocean of purity.  Over time, the dust of life experience settles into the glass and clouds the water and distorts our vision.  At times, the dust settles and we experience temporary peace.  Spiritual practice is the filter that cleans our water. Sa Ra

It is important that we begin and maintain the practice of meditation with consistency.  Meditation allows us to develop the ability to observe our thoughts with detachment and still our minds.  The discipline that we gain from this practice can and should be applied to our lives, whereupon we use the ability to detach from our thoughts in meditation to detach from them during the course of our lives. We can also apply this detachment to events of our lives.  In this way, we develop the ability to be unaffected by the events that occur during the course of our lives.  Sa Ra

Some will receive only truths that are in alignment with what they already believe and will reject those truths that do not align with their beliefs.  Sa Ra

“Let them that hath ears to hear let them hear”.  Innerstand, that some will not receive or accept the Truth when they hear it.  It is okay.  Judge them not.  Allow them to make their choice; because it is THEIR choice, not ours.  Sa Ra

“Mind your wants because someone wants your mind”.  George Clinton (From the song Funkentelechy).  In other words, be conscious of what we allow to be planted in the garden of our minds.  There are those who engage in mind control using the mediums of television, movies, music, billboards etc. to keep us distracted from realizing our true purpose.  Sa Ra

It is important that we be mindful and selective about the words that we use.  Refrain from using self-limiting words and phrases such as can’t, too hard, and try.  Use affirming words.  Innerstand that we are creating with the vibration of our thoughts and words.  Let us be in control of both. Sa Ra

Lament or worry not over the mistakes of yesterday.  The past is over and done with.  Forgive yourself of the mistake, reflect on the lesson therein and move forward on your journey.  Take heed only to not repeat the mistake and focus on what must be done in the present moment.  Sa Ra

Find your purpose and fulfill it.  Live it.  Become it.  In addition to attaining Enlightenment, each of us has has a unique purpose in this world; a gift to offer.  Find it and embrace it fully.  The world awaits your contribution to the ascension of humanity.  Ase’!  Sa Ra

Spread light where ever you go.  We do this by aligning our thoughts, words and actions with Divine Law.  Innerstand that some will pull down the shades and refuse to receive light.  Be not offended. It is their choice.  Just continue to shine.  For we will have done our work.  Sa Ra

Anger and hatred serve us not.  Both emotions are destructive and bind us to ego, and thus impede our ascension.  Though it is at times necessary for us to fight against an enemy that seeks to destroy us, we fight more effectively when we maintain our inner peace.  Sa Ra
