Spiritual Philosophy

Shopping for Philosophy - The Spiritual Aspect

Spiritual philosophies are getting to be almost a dime a dozen, but they are only as valuable, really, as they are truly spiritual. Now, many people have different ideas about what is and what is not spirituality. The Kabalarian Philosophy teaches that spirituality is an attained mental state of Conscious awareness. It is not something that is promised to you some day in the hereafter. It is an attainment, possible here in life, now, through your own mental efforts. Spirituality is the state of accomplishment. It is just like the blossoming of a flower; it is the fulfillment of the growth of that flower. So, spirituality is the result of your mental development onto Conscious levels.

The Kabalarian Philosophy is realistic inasmuch as it promises you success through personal application. It is realistic inasmuch as it says if you want spirituality you must create it for yourself through your own efforts: here is the Principle, which if you understand and apply will guarantee you successful spiritual development.

Spirituality is a growth in mind that represents the broadness of perspective that is associated with the wise men of the ages, where we are above the pettiness of life, the petty personality problems, the selfishness, and all those other incidentals. Spirituality is not something that is denied anyone. It is something that is possible for everyone but yet spirituality is not granted to anyone for any reason. Spirituality is created by the individual.

What do you think spirituality should be? Would it not represent the broadest understanding of life, the understanding of the principles of life, not just a thorough understanding of the books in the library which are merely the recordings of men's minds? It is the understanding of the laws of being spirituality is the living personification of those universal laws.

You know that you could control your temper if you tried hard enough - at least you think you can. You know that if you really changed and overcame your moods you would be a much happier, more pleasant person. You know that if you really watched your diet and disciplined your feelings and emotions, you would be a different person. You know that you have greater potential. Just think, if you kept working at that potential for a period of time how different you would become. Is that not growth towards spirituality? Do you think it is right to sit back and just twiddle your thumbs and say, "Well I would expect to be among the chosen one thousand"? What have we done to deserve such a choice? Is it not more intelligent to realize that we get what we deserve? We get what we deserve according to out efforts, and so it we want to become spiritual we have to start living spiritual principles.

We start in the simple ways: physically by establishing good health; mentally by creating constructive mental qualities, controlling our moods, our temper, our negative nature, learning to be positive and constructive and happy, learning to rise above the pettiness of life and becoming more concerned with the human challenges.

Man's purpose is to become the eyes, the ears, and the mouthpiece of this great Principle so that he expresses his potential. What is the purpose of the piano? To express music. What is the purpose of man? To be a channel for conscious intelligence. That is what we are here for. You read the papers and you wonder what is happening.

Mankind is destroying itself through its indulgences and through its illogical attitudes. We need a philosophy of life that will help us to live constructively, which is so much more pleasurable, interesting, and enjoyable. You talk to anyone who has given up smoking, drinking, or been at death's door and they will tell you its so much better to be healthy and alive.

Spirituality is not something far off in the future; it is a part of you, now. It is something that you can become. Within every flower seed is the power to become spiritually fulfilled as a flower. It does not have any mind, it cannot be a conscious fulfillment, naturally. Nevertheless, within the seed is the potential for the fulfillment. Within the seed of man is that potential for conscious fulfillment which is universality of mind. You have that potential, it is within you, but if you do not try to develop it, what good is it?

If you do not know how to develop it, what good is it? In looking into the Kabalarian Philosophy, judge the accuracy and try to determine whether in your shopping you have found something that answers some of your wants, your questions, fulfills your requirements. If you are looking for a healthy, happy, constructive way of life, then you have come to the right place.
