Spirituality, Does it Make Sense to You too?

Do you feel that the body, mind and spirit are all important? Do you feel the human beings has mastered various ways to accomplish mental and physical health. For example, nutritional and exercise information has been studied given on how to make our bodies look and feel good. A lot of psychological research has been developed on how to accomplish better mental health as well. However, it seems that most people around the world tends to neglect their spiritual health, or better yet, it is not as popular as the other two. This could be because a lot of people need to see in order to believe certain things. We all can see how our bodies transform from eating healthy and working out, and we all feel that we can control the way we think and the outlook of our lives. However, how can we see spirituality? How do we witness spiritual growth? I think society runs off of their mind and eyes, instead of their heart and feelings deep within them, in other words, their psychic intuition.

So let’s take another look at what spirituality is? I believe spirituality is an inner journey to discovering one’s true self. A light journey where one can meet and communicate with the ultimate divine and gain true clarity about how life should be lived. I believe that spirituality is a journey to a “place.” A place away from the world the eyes sees. A place of peace, calmness, clarity, and balance. Spirituality, in my reason, is about inner, self growth on a higher level. And once people reach that level of development, the next mission is to help others with their own personal self growth.

People reach this “place” in different ways using different methods. Some like to meditate on music or completely in silence. Others like to pray in the comfort of their homes or in a certain type of service. Some people enjoy relaxing in and around nature, such as a ocean, lake or under a tree in a green park. And still, others like to do activities such as tai chi or yoga. All of these activities are calming and bring us to a place of peace away from the world.

So for those who meditate, or use some other sort of method to connect with our higher self, why does the experience feel bring so much satisfaction? Why do we have so much peace and happiness afterwards? I believe because for those few little moments our of busy, hectic lives we are finally “home” where our hearts belong and we can actually feel it. We are closer and connected with the Higher Power.

Most would agree that the world is becoming more and more complicated, with unnecessary violence and other events due to lack of spirituality. If people stopped taking actions based on over thinking, fear, and worldly intelligence, and instead channeled into their own hearts and true guidance to seek answers, the world would be a much better place. Imagine what the world would be like if we all truly connected with our higher selves. If we stopped relying on the world to give us our answers to everyday life. I feel that it would truly be like Heaven, peaceful and full of clarity. And we also need to keep in mind that, one can not fight for piece, as piece is not fighting.
