A Spiritual path together

"Spirituality is allowing compassion and love to flourish. When belongness begins, corruption ends." ~Sri Sri Ravi Shanka

"The spiritual path is not a solo endeavor. In fact, the very notion of a self who is trying to free her/himself, alone, is a delusion. We are in it together and the company of spiritual friends helps us realize our interconnectedness." ~Tara Brach

Spiritual Connection

“Rather than basing our relationships primarily on human personality attractions, we tend to be drawn to those with whom we have mutual experiences and significant soul connections.” ~Anna Ellington

Love is a Spiritual energy.  Passion may arouse and increase enthusiasm, physical pursuits may be momentarily pleasurable, but the deep love energy flowing between two people with a spiritual connection, flows in unspoken words.  A stirring in the heart untouched, the sense inflamed just with a sensory thought of the other. The warmth pouring from the eyes of a loving glance thrown by one to another.  Two souls in perfect synchronicity... spiritually connected and aligned. 

Without spiritual bonding there is no deep sensitivity, empathy or understanding.  The two people may be attracted to each other physically but remain thirsted and needful of substantiation.  Love of this type has suppressed energy.   

Spiritual love is far more powerful and potent and doesn't require any effort or invention on ones part, for it inspires, warms, regenerates, strengthens, radiates light from within, and fans an eternal flame of love within ones heart. Truly a Spiritual Connection... and a Love of a lifetime.

“The more connections you and your lover make, not just between your bodies, but between your minds, your hearts, and your souls, the more you will strengthen the fabric of your relationship, and the more real moments you will experience together.” ~Barbara De Angelis

Being Truthful with Yourself...

"If you can't be truthful with yourself, how can you be honest with anyone else." ~Yvonne Lewis

"I believe that truthfulness with ourselves and unconditional love of others leads to happiness." ~Me

Not being truthful with yourself keeps you from allowing yourself to be happy; which keeps you inside your your own walls or prison.  Following your heart is a spiritual connection.  Not following your heart, or allowing yourself to trust your own intuition, causes the death of ones own spirit.  I know, I almost let my own spirit die once. 

Back then I wasn't honest with myself and I didn't trust the people I needed to break free from.  All I could think about was what they 'might' do.   I was afraid my children would be turned against me, or that I wouldn't be able to take care of them on my own.  Fear ruled every day of my life for many, many years.   

My mind was very clouded from all the stress in my home and life.  I didn't live with unconditional love.. the type of love that we all deserve and that which brings peace and true happiness. 

Deep down I should have known I didn't have to stay in that situation; that I wouldn't really lose my children and that I could take care of myself.   But I couldn't think clearly when I was walking on eggshells all the time, just trying to get through each day in peace or at least without a major conflict.   

Instead of being truthful with myself, I made excuses, hide what my home life was really like from most people, and how I really felt.  I was embarrassed, confussed and I didn't trust anyone because of all the threats and irrational behavior of others.  I was so effected by the manipulation, threats and fear of not knowing what they would do... that I seldom ever listened to my intuition, let alone followed my heart.   I know now that I should have and why.

Our intuition is God's guidance in our lives.  He wants us to be Happy and have fulfilling lives; so he guides, even talks to us, through our intuition.  Our intuition is directly connected to our hearts as well.   In fact, following your Heart is the most powerful 'Spiritual Connection' of all.   

Unfortunately many people who are unhappy...

• are not truthful with themselves
• don't allow themselves to be happy
• don't listen to or trust their intuition
• are too afraid or don't trust themselves enough
• and especially don't realize that following our heart is a Spiritual Connection

This is when people need to 'let go of what they think they know' and realize that the negative and fearful thoughts are not going to happen.  That we won't loss everything that matters to us, nor do we need to live in fear of others or of the unknown.  We just need to trust ourselves, admit to how we really feel, and listen to the Spiritual Connections that God has given each of us, our intuition and hearts, so he can guide us to the happiness he wants for us.

Intuition...

"Intuition is a spiritual faculty and does not explain, but simply points the way." ~Florence Scovel Shinn

Intuition is a natural ability or power that makes it possible to know something without any proof or evidence.  'Feelings' that guides a person to act a certain way without fully understanding why.  A 'sensing' or instinctive belief beyond conscious reasoning. 

Intuition draws on knowledge gained from past experience that has been stored in the subconscious mind.  It can also be a deep and heightened observation, allowing us to cut through the thickness of surface reality to see the truth or understanding of the situation.

"Intuition is the supra-logic that cuts out all the routine processes of thought and leaps straight from the problem to the answer." ~Robert Graves

"INTUITION may be defined as understanding or knowing without conscious recourse to thought, observation or reason. Some see this unmediated process as somehow mystical while others describe intuition as being a response to unconscious cues or implicitly apprehended prior learning."– Dr. Jason Gallate & Ms Shannan Keen BA

INTUITION ~By Gael Bage

Turn knowledge

on its head,

it happens,

flat earth

is now round.

Prelogical sensing

advances us.

Ideas, like

castles in the air,

are breached.

Braving the sceptics

our senses

propel us,

leaping wide chasms

to the future.

Gut feelings,

intuition,

and vision

may be

mans greatest gift.

I trust

implicitly

this organismic

sensing,

knowing...before logic.

"You have to leave the city of your comfort and go into the wilderness of your intuition. What you'll discover will be wonderful. What you'll discover is yourself." ~Alan Alda
