There seems to be, in most, a definable difference between our
spiritual self & our human self which is defined by awareness, the more
aware we are of the inner and outer workings of life, as a whole, the more our
human selves realise we are not being all we are. The funny thing is though; spirituality is
defined by how aware we are which means spirituality is about becoming more
aware. This means when we talk about spirituality we are talking about awareness
so is this saying the human self is of ignorance?
Going by actual experiences, there is a huge difference
between the human and spiritual self, when we talk about the spiritual in life
we are actually talking about awareness which is quite different to human sciences.
Human science can only become aware or knowing of what it is consciously aware
of but the spiritual self is aware of all of what is. I can understand how
science minded people see spirituality as being threatening to their
ideological views however the most successful scientists in human history, I
believe, are also connected to this spiritual awareness. Many sit within their
own quietness which is similar to meditating. What a scientist is doing when they sit within
their own quietness is focusing, people who meditate also focus especially on
their breathing. In this case, scientist have balanced out the human self with
the aware spiritual self, unbeknownst to most scientists, however the ego wants
to take all the credit in being so smart and usually refutes any claim the only
reason they are so smart is because of their connectedness to the spiritual
aware self.
This brings us to spiritually aware people themselves, what gives
balance to a spiritually aware person? Believe it or not, if spiritually aware
people didn’t have this balance between their spiritually aware self and the
human self they wouldn’t exist as humans, they would, like the Mayans and many
other individuals, physically disappear which brings us back to the question, what
balances out a spiritually aware person so they don’t just disappear from this physical
world/reality?
Let’s go back to scientists, what balances them out? Believe
it or not it’s our ignorance which is egotistically driven; most scientists are
ignorant to where there braininess comes from because they want to believe it’s
them as individuals who are so aware and knowing. Of course spiritually aware people know differently
mainly because we tend to be not as driven by the ego however I feel if we weren’t
driven by ego at all we would disappear. What I am saying is the ego helps us balance
out our spiritual and human self so we don’t change our vibrations to the
extent of disappearing.
The below link shows quite clearly how spirituality and
science are in tune with each other and how science minded people just can’t
see beyond their egos where’s a lot of spiritually aware people can.
Extract: Right before the event began, I approached
the professor on the panel to say hello. We had met once before, and as I
stretched out my hand for a shake I noticed a hesitation on his part in return.
Frankly, he didn't look very happy to see me, but I didn't make much of it.
During the dialogue and discussion, I noticed he was very aggressive and took
every opportunity to belittle all the aspects of spirituality and yoga, of
which he had little or no knowledge about in the first place. I realized at
that moment that there was a new breed of fanatics on the rise and this breed
had nothing to do with religion.
I would also like to add to this by saying; there are a lot
of spiritually aware people who clash with science ideologies as well which
again denote a controlling ego controlling us to think in certain ways. When we are thinking in certain ways, either
it be spiritually or scientifically, what is driving this thought pattern? Also
have some spiritually aware people become highly egotistical when they think of
themselves as being more aware especially over and above science minded people? The link above shows clearly how science and spiritualty
are as one however our egos tell us something quite different when we believe
in a supposed opposing ideology. It’s
our egos telling us we believe in a much wiser and aware ideological process
however being spiritually aware does make us or should make us more aware of
this. I don’t believe this is the case with scientists who shut themselves off
from the rest of the world to focus on a particular point like spiritually
aware people do when meditating.
Anyone with a fixated ideological belief isn’t going to accept
this mainly because of the controlling factors of the ego.
I believe the scientists who have shut themselves off in
this way have quite nicely balanced out the spiritual & human self, mostly
unbeknownst to them, probably a lot
better than most spiritually aware people can. This is because a lot of spiritually
aware people are only focused and believe in spiritual awareness and denounce
anything else beyond this thought process. This thought process is obviously controlled
by the ego denoting,” my ideological beliefs are far superior to science ideologies”. It takes a wise spiritually aware person to become
aware enough to know it’s all about awareness no matter how that awareness has
been obtained. Yes science has proven
itself unworthy at times but so has spirituality, when this happens, where is this
awareness?
It is funny to think the ego is keeping us balanced between
our spiritual and human selves unless we are unwise. It is obvious the ego has
gone troppo in this reality either it be scientifically/technologically driven
or spiritually/religiously driven however where there is a balance between our
human and spiritual selves the controlling factors of the ego are far less
controlling which in turn gives us balance. According to a number of spiritually
aware people we should rid ourselves of the ego all together; I believe there
is no balance in this between our human and spiritual selves. If we want to end
up like the Mayans fair enough but most of us don’t see any point to this. I
believe there is a reason we are here and it’s not to just disappear but find a
balance between the human and spiritual self or if you like, the ego and
spiritual self. Once we find this
balance collectively, what we know what heaven to be will seem lame.
