This page is dedicated to your spiritual wholeness, and includes subjects like spirituality, self-worth, trusting in divine destiny versus forging your own, comparative religion, reincarnation, prayers, spiritual protection, creation versus evolution and the subject of evil.
The spiritual path or activity you engage in is something only you should decide, regardless of what faith you were born or baptized into. Some people who have become disillusioned with orthodox religion find that going fishing or walking in nature is the best way to have a spiritual experience.
If someone who prefers fishing or just walking in nature is true and caring to themselves and others, then they are better off than any religious person who is not. God or Spirit is omnipresent (everywhere). And as Jesus said: “ ..for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.” (Luke 17:21 KJV). Eastern teachings concur that our inner nature is of God. The biggest problem is that we think we are humans trying to have a spiritual experience. We’ve got it wrong. We’re spiritual beings trying to have a human experience. This makes a major difference in what we expect from ourselves and from life.This is all about attitude. As stated earlier about being true and caring, our attitude towards life makes much more difference on our spiritual path than how often we go to church or how much we pray or meditate. For more on attitude, see the Attitude page.
The material on this page is not to try to convince you to accept or follow anything. We all have different pasts and different needs. As Buddha said: "Believe nothing, no matter where you read it, or who said it, no matter if I have said it, unless it agrees with your own reason and your common sense." Fortunately we do not have to rely only on our outer academic knowledge to determine what is true for us, as the truth lies within us. The Spirit within us (or our Real Self) knows exactly what we need. Our job is to tune into that truth, and then take practical steps to apply it. This is no small task, and we need a balance between outer study and inner contemplation. This “task” is actually a path that is a wonderful and sacred adventure. We don’t need to know the whole plan in our outer consciousness, only the next step. This page is intended to help you follow your own path in balance by helping you to look at all sides of the subject.
May you walk that path and enjoy this greatest adventure of all that leads to you realizing your full potential and becoming all that you really are! Life is what you make it, in this totally amazing universe!
