Spiritual Skepticisms
As we traverse this spiritual journey there are several skills that we must incorporate into our repatare of spiritual beliefs if we are to grow on the spiritual path. I think that the most important is the balance we have between the esoteric and the "real" world. This balance is often called "Being Grounded." What does that really mean? I think it is being involved in the physical world and taking the teachings one learns from the esoteric into the physical world and manifesting them. How does one do this? I think starting with putting spiritual knowledge to work in our families, then our work, physical exercise, eating healthy foods, and just plain laughter and fun. If one spends time each day in prayer and mediation one will find that balance. This balance is really important as other wise we may fall under the egos wants, or our wishes and desires, or our fears. Many people who first traverse the spiritual path get lost in these things. They loss perspective of the reasons they are going each day to the spiritual plane is to better live on the physical plane. When we are in this balance or being grounded we are less likely to fall prey to flights of fantasy.
When embarking on a spiritual journey people need some just plain good
old common sense. In exploring the many subjects of the esoteric realm one can lose perspective. It is always a
good idea to keep a
skeptical attitude toward some of the things that are presented to us.
The internet is always presenting a new theology or a new way to
magically have the life you want.
So investigate, think on these things, meditate, pray ask the angels and your Higher Power what is real, what is for you. That brings up a really good point since we are created to be very unique spiritual beings our truths are not the same. So no matter what is revealed to us or how much we believe that you have found the answers keep in perspective they are your answers and not someone else. Each of us must come to our answers for ourselves. My beliefs tell me that the whole purpose is to live the best we can on this physical plane and use our spiritual knowledge in creating a more wonderful place. The best way to do this for me is to know myself and only try to change me. Think what would happen if each of us sought spiritual truth daily and lived it to the best of our ability. Pray for one another to find their truth but do not impose your truth on others.
