Spirituality and religion were cut of the same cloth, and were meant to be so. But man-made trappings have been added, misunderstandings that have obscured clear connection with Spirit. Reducing that vital contact to a set of formulas bound by rigid rules or creeds kills aliveness. Such a religion has lost its life and become a dead thing that surely cannot awaken the spirit.
Spirituality is life. It must give and create life. It is clarity, awareness of the presence of Life-Force-Spirit in each moment. It is being in touch with consciousness, and that includes oneself, in, of and as the great soulful Reality that brings and is a state of peaceful understanding. We can believe in God, yet not be spiritual, for Spirit is more than mere believing. It is the sense of spaciousness, wholeness, peace, and completeness. Still, who and what you believe in and follow is of utmost importance, not only for yourself but for each one of us, who greatly influences others in the pool of life. For many, religion has become removed from the true life- giving Spirit, yet there are awesome, vital connections that can also exist between the two. These can be awakened, and in that awakening great forces may be empowered for ourselves and our world. Read more about those possibilities and potential in the next post.
