  3. Journey into silence – the typical spiritual path

The journey into silence outlines the sequence that one follows to rise high in the game of life. This process is constantly unfolding in everyone’s life, often without awareness. It also provides a framework that can guide you as you engage with this blog. Typically, a person’s spiritual evolution will follow this trajectory:

  • Life is going smoothly – hale and hearty.
  • A significant event happens that profoundly impacts you.
  • The momentum shifts,  leading to increased negativity in your life.
  • You suddenly find the urge to break free from worry and negative thought patterns.
  • Spiritual practices such as meditation give you hope (and even excitement).
  • As you encounter challenges with meditation, or purely as a complement to it, you start exploring ways to enhance your vitality. This includes various nature healing mechanism such as breathing, nutrition, and more.
  • But here’s the thing – it still doesn’t work. If you stay put, you realise that the mind is the real problem, and that it’s not about seeking a temporary feel good factor by meditation.
  • You begin to distance yourself from the mind.  You go into deeper states of meditation to uncover the truth. This reveals further truth and insights into freewill operating in your life.
  • You are much better evolved spiritually now. You enter the state of relaxed awareness.
  • You go further, you become one.

Above is the natural progression that you can expect in a typical life or journey of a soul. It’s not as straightforward. Material distractions will do their best to sway you from this path. But you have to still have faith and stay put. Every stage above holds with it a profound meaning. Your silence will eventually emerge of a much larger wisdom.

The links provided above will guide you through this natural progression, from no awareness to higher levels of spirituality, as you explore this blog.
