So where must you begin with
Spirituality? Will it happen in stages? Where must you start? You can only
begin from wherever you’re. You can’t begin anywhere. Don’t attempt to begin
anywhere; there’s nothing to begin. It’s already in you, way back it has been
started. You’re attempting to simply hasten it, that’s all. You cannot begin
it, it’s already started. Your desire to grow has started, isn’t it?
Possibly you’re thinking of extra
money but that’s just your misinterpretation, basically, you want to be
something batter that’s a spiritual process; Confused, however a spiritual
process. You want to become powerful, you wish to become wealthy, you wish to
become knowledgeable, you wish to be loved, and you wish to have pleasure. All
this is often spiritual processes getting in the wrong direction, that’s all.
Unconscious conducting, you’re
unconsciously conducting a spiritual process. If you conduct something
unconsciously you will flounder each step perhaps off the mark, isn’t it? If
you walk Now if you’re asked to drive home with your eyes closed. before you
get out of the car parking zone, you’ll be in quite a bit of mess, isn’t it?
Therefore now don’t attempt to begin anywhere, simply become more and more
conscious. As you become a lot conscious it’ll naturally find its way. What is
mean by being to be conscious or to be aware? If you are trying to be aware,
you can’t be aware.
People are always mistaking
intellectual alertness for awareness. Intellectual alertness can enhance your
ability to survive better. You’ll survive better with intellectual alertness
however that’s not awareness. Awareness means right now are you there wherever
you’re seating? If your answer is yes, i.e. you know that where you’re right now.
That’s awareness. You’re aware, that’s why you know that where you’re,
otherwise you’d not know.
Your awareness anyway is coming in
numerous stages. Have you ever noticed at totally different times of the day
you’re in different levels of awareness? Therefore it will be heightened.
What’s required for survival naturally happens. Even when it comes to survival
mode, not each individual is awake to a similar extent. Now you’re driving on
the road, you’ll see nobody is awake to a similar extent; it is a survival
method – driving. Therefore even within the survival mode, nobody is awake to a
similar extent which will be heightened.
If you heighten this awareness
endlessly, a point will come where it’s not a lot regarding survival; something
that’s not required for your survival will also get into your awareness. When
that comes into your awareness which isn’t required for your survival is
guaranteed to be a dimension beyond the physical. So once that comes into your
living experience of life, you’re on the path of spirituality, very easy.
Only seven days, and you were slowly
wind up. This winds you up in such a way that you just become more and more
aware. After that if you maintain your practice, step by step it’ll move up
daily, otherwise slowly you became dim all over again. Have you noticed this?
You steadily carry on your practice, how your awareness is. If you give it up
and slowly energy goes down. If energy goes down, the light becomes dim. If the
light becomes dim, you see only a few things. If the energy is absolutely high,
the light becomes very bright and you see everything. This is awareness.
So you
don’t have to work on your awareness or your consciousness or your spiritual
growth, you only need to work upon your energy. You keep your energies up as
much as possible and once energies are up you tending to get intertwined with
something. Make sure not to get intertwined with anything. Teenagers are way
more energetic than others, but they are usually moving into trouble because
they have the energy, but they don’t have the stability. Therefore you have to
maintain the energy and stability, if you are doing these two things, rest can
happen by itself, nothing to do. Simply sit and enjoy.
