Remembering who we really are is the first
step in awakening to our spiritual path. Throughout the journey from birth to death,
many people choose to question life, strive for improvement, seek out
knowledge, and search for the divine. Simply put, this is the essence of
spirituality. One’s spiritual practice can take on many forms, because
embracing the spiritual is a very personal pursuit. While many people do
relate their spirituality to a God or Goddess, this quest for the divine, or
oneness with the universe, always springs from within. It doesn’t matter
where you find your spiritual path. We are all fundamentally spiritual beings
and the essence of that lies in knowing one’s true self and finding a peace
that comes from within rather than the outside world. It is in remembering
this that we awaken to our personal path. The spiritual path springs forth from a
daily routine that reaffirms our personal connection with a purpose or a way
of life. Practicing compassion, gratitude, appreciation, forgiveness,
generosity, meditation, and taking care of one’s well-being can all be a part
of one’s spiritual life. If you are new to exploring your personal
spirituality, remember that this is a process. You may want to spend a few
moments each day giving yourself a spiritual gift. Try a new form of
meditation, visit a sanctuary, or explore a specific deity. Accepting the importance of spirituality
can be a healthy decision because a spiritual practice tends to include
habits that promote healthy living. Take the time to carefully determine the
action, thought, and ritual that most speaks to your soul. Remember that your
most profound spiritual experiences may also come from the simple intricacies
that make up your life. See the interconnectedness of all things. As you
explore your inner work, you will be walking your spiritual path and feeling
your oneness with the universe. |
