SPIRITUAL TRAINING
The human being is a spiritual being, but many people do not perceive this, being identified only with the physical part of the human experience on Earth. We don’t have a clear social education about human spirituality, at least not from my point of view. For many, spirituality is a fairy tale or sci-fi concept.
The being of the human species is first a spiritual being and then a human being. We are not a physical human having a spirit, we are a spirit temporarily occupying a human body to have a life on Earth. The spirit is eternal, and the body is temporary. The soul is the part of the spirit that occupies the body. Spirit spans in multiple planes of existence. He is connected to the Divine Source in the Unitary and Divine Existential Plane and from there he extends his branches into other planes of existence, which can be energetic and/or physical. The spirit can transmute (transform) into the current life body and into other current life bodies. Also, he can be in the bodies of past lives and in the bodies of future lives. The spirit can have simultaneous lives on other Extra-terrestrial Planets and in other realms of multidimensional existence. What reaches Earth as Soul is only a fraction of Spirit Energy.
The Earth is a Spiritual School with material lessons and teachings (in matter, in physicality). The soul comes to Earth to learn from the human experience in order to grow. The Earth provides the Soul with a platform where it can physically interact with the environment and where it can experience different types of feelings ranging from the lowest (fear, hate) to the highest (love, bliss).
Earth is a very hard School; some consider it to be a School with Master’s studies. This is because in the human experience there are countless possibilities for hardship and negativity in life. Many people suffer greatly on Earth from all kinds of problems, such as mental or physical illness, lack of love or connection, separation from nature and Divinity, toxins in the air, water and food, violence, abuse, loneliness, etc. All these hardships of life are actually lessons that must be learned and solved in order to grow personally (man) and spiritually (soul).
The lessons (hardships) of life are chosen by the soul and spirit guides before life begins. The soul learns about them theoretically in the Spiritual Plane and then wants to experience them physically (practically). Earth is like a practical laboratory for the theory learned on the Spiritual Plane. It is the same as a high school graduate who wants to go to college and will choose a college that he feels will help him grow in life. That’s how the soul chooses a faculty on Earth that has the main subjects (lessons) that will help it grow. Some high school graduates go to mathematics and physics, others to history and geography, others to medicine and others to literature and foreign languages. Likewise, souls choose Rejection, Abandonment, Violence, Physical Diseases, Mental Diseases, Cancer, Loneliness, Poverty, Slavery, etc. Some lives are meant only to experience these problems of life and other lives are meant to overcome these problems. (From sickness to health, from poverty to wealth, etc.).
The Earth is a very rich School and offers many classes to the soul. The soul will incarnate on Earth as many times as it needs to finish its studies. Some lives do not turn out completely as they were planned, and the soul returns in spirit with some “failures” (unfinished lessons), which will be continued in the next life. Between each incarnation, the soul together with spirit guides (more advanced spiritual entities that have already learned what the soul wants to learn) review the life just ended. They observe the evolution on Earth, what worked, what did not work and how the next life should be prepared.
Once you are aware of this spiritual perception of man, you can look at life and hardships on Earth with different eyes. Most of us come with spiritual amnesia and no longer remember life on the Spiritual Plane or previous lives. This makes the experience on Earth much harder. One of the main lessons is to remember who we really are. There are also some children who manage to remember their previous existence and end up being much wiser and lead a bright life.
These things are not explained to us when we are little, and we grow up and do not know how to properly manage the difficulties of life. Once we integrate this spiritual insight, life will be easier.
There are many different religions that talk about spirituality, but from my point of view, they don’t tell us clearly what it means to be a spiritual and human being on Earth. These religions present us with the Supreme Divinity in their vision and give us all kinds of stories and teachings to be on the Right Path dictated by that Divine Source. Most people follow a certain religion, some are atheists (they don’t believe in God), and a small part are spiritual (attracted to Spirituality).
Religion and Spirituality are different, although they have in common the connection between Man and Divinity. Religion comes from a masculine (rigid) energy, where strict rules are followed and promoted as the only True Way (Christianity, Islam). Spirituality comes from a feminine (flexible) energy, where different concepts from several spiritual sources are adopted and promoted as One of the many True Paths that exist (Yoga, Tao). Religion promotes the fact that the priest and the church are the link between Man and God. The view in religion is that Man and God are separate, and that man must follow the guidance of the priests to reach God. Spirituality promotes the fact that Man is a small part of God and that they are always connected. In the vision of Spirituality, Man is One with God and has divine potential.
A very powerful practice to connect more and more with the Divinity within you is the practice of Meditation. He who meditates long and often on the Divinity will awaken and cultivate the Divinity within him. To meditate on Divinity is to keep your unbroken attention (concentration) on the Divine Energy, on God. This God can be represented in any form meaningful to the meditator. One can meditate on God as Shiva, Buddha, Jesus, Ra, Yin & Yang, Allah, the Sun, the Universe, etc. One can meditate on any form of personification or embodiment of Divinity. Whatever makes sense to the meditating person, it can be a tree, or a river, or an idol (Messi), or enlightened being (Sadguru), or an anime character (Son Goku). Whatever divine energy is meditated upon, the characteristics of that Divinity will be attracted. For example, if one meditates on Saraswati, one will acquire artistic qualities, if one meditates on Lakshmi, one will attract Abundance, if one meditates on Isis, one will attract Fertility and Family, etc.
An important aspect of this meditation is being One with Divinity. In meditation, you stay focused both on the feeling of being present in the Divinity and on the feeling that the Divinity is present in you. You and Divinity are the same. You are a drop of water from the Ocean. You are part of the Ocean, and the qualities and characteristics of the Ocean are in you. The ocean is the Divine Macrocosm, and the drop of water is a much smaller Ocean, a Divine Microcosm.
Another form of meditation that connects you with the Divine is the OM (AUM) Mantra Meditation. OM is the divine universal sound. Everything in the Universe was created through him. Those who produce this creative sound connect with divine creative potential. AUM, pronounced OM, comes from Hinduism and represents the invocation of the 3 existential aspects of Divinity. A represents the creative force (Brahma), U represents the sustaining force (Vishnu), and M represents the destructive force (Shiva). Through the sound of OM, we connect with all the existential processes of Divinity. In this way, we become better able to manage our lives in a way that is as connected as possible to the mission of life on Earth.
I recommend these meditations to everyone, and I hope they help you awaken to your true and divine potential, and I hope you create a better, more beautiful and brighter world through your dreams and desires.
