Spirituality

As you continue your journey on the pathway of awakening, you will face many challenges. Not all of these challenges seem obvious or straightforward. Every day we all express different thoughts and emotions. However, certain emotions can cause more problems than others as they feed your lower ego.

These lower emotions are typically characterised by fear, arrogance, rage, despondency, jealousy and greed and can be analogous to many aspects of the seven deadly sins. You should strive to recognise any aspects of these lower emotions within you. Where you do find any thoughts, emotions or feelings of this nature, you should do your best to bring these aspects under control, then banish them from every facet of your life. If you allow these emotions to be retained within, they will feed your lower ego with energy, giving the mind the opportunity to then regain its power over you and your life.

Even though the physical form seems solid, science tells us that it is not so, the physical form is largely void. At an anatomical level, our body consists of various systems. These systems are comprised of various cells which perform specific functions necessary for the operation and wellbeing of the entire mechanism. At the microscopic level, the cells are the basic biological and functional unit.

The cells are comprised of smaller components such as proteins, carbohydrates, lipids and other substances. These cellular components are composed of atoms, which are in turn composed of smaller sub-atomic particles. Between and around these sub-atomic components are vast amounts of apparent nothingness. So while we all appear solid, at the sub-atomic level we appear largely empty. However, there is more to this emptiness. This quantum void is infused with the finite aspects of the universal force to maintain the structure of matter and maintain the illusion of solidity.

Your Spark of Life is the true unemotional component within you. It is an omnipresent force within you, representing the seed of creative energy of the cosmos. Within many ancient writings, it has been described as the capability of Gods within. Such writings have been referring to your creative Spark of Life within, which means that you are a creative being. However, you need to take this in the context that you are an energy being. Expressed more simply, you are part of the Universal Presence manifesting within material life.

As you access your Life Force energies, they begin to blossom and radiate into the world. Your Life Force will try to release itself from the emotional instability of the human body. As it does, the Life Force gains control of your life, so that you can live every thought, emotion and feeling with high reasoning.

How long will it take to release the wonder of your Life Force? The awakening of your Life Force has to be controlled by you, as it is necessary to adjust to the energies of your Life Force on a gradual basis. Much depends on your ability to have an open mind to challenge the accepted conditioning that has built up over the years. The awakening of your Life Force depends on your enthusiasm to place your will to the fore through Ekagrata to enter into the silence within your Life Force mind.

As anyone who practices mindfulness, you must face the challenge of the aspects which you have pushed aside. While it is an admirable practice to improve your focus in life by pushing aside other thoughts, emotions or feelings, you need to take a deeper challenge. The challenge is to realise that pushing aside any thoughts, emotions or feelings, does not make them disappear. When pushing them aside, they continue to exist on the periphery of your consciousness.

 

You need to understand these aspects within your life so that you can then move beyond them. Moving beyond them, you can no longer react to the stimuli which they produce. However, if you leave them unattended within the recesses of your mind, they are like the proverbial Pandora’s box. As such, any emotional aspects not appropriately understood or banished completely from your mind, can lead to many unforeseen problems.

An essential aspect of wellbeing is the circulation of energy through the human form. The term meridians characterise the energy distribution system as denoted in Chinese medicine, and details how the basic substances of the body permeate the entire body. The individual meridians are typically described as paths or channels which echoes the idea of carrying, holding, or transporting blood, body fluids and chi around the body. Chi is the Taoist idea of the Life Force, which permeates all matter and infuses it with life.

 

The energy circuits or meridians supply energy to all parts of you. You should be mindful that an accumulation of emotions can lead to blockages or obstructions in your body. These disturbances to the circulation of chi within the human mechanism can bring about various forms of sickness or ill-health.

Realise that suppressing or subduing thoughts and emotions, specifically the unfavourable ones, can be perilous as you continue on your journey of awakening, meditation or attunement. Suppressing an emotion does not admonish an emotion. The emotion still exists within you, secreted in the background of your mind and subconscious.

 

As you progress and the energy of your Life Force enlivens your form, these energies will feed all aspects of your being, including emotions that have been hidden away under the proverbial rug or in a darkened corner of your mind. The emotional energy can build in the background and lead to a fiery outburst which can create harm and additional causality. You should acknowledge and expel the emotion to ensure that it does not smoulder and grow within, causing unimaginable problems.

The ability to work with your Life Force energies is not a mystery it is achievable through Cognition (a true calmness of mind) and Ekagrata (focused thought). As you learn about this inner energy, you will find that you can apply it in many situations for whatever positive result you require. Strength, willpower, healing, upliftment; all these and more are possible through the correct application of this amazing energy source. Multi-faceted Knowledge is based on accessing your Life Force to expand the understanding of yourself and expand the capabilities of your Life Force as an energy being.

 

Accessing your Life Force energies allows you to bring harmony within yourself and resonate within higher states of consciousness. Free yourself from physical, mental and emotional limitations through moving out of your conditioned emotional patterns of thinking into positive and creative higher levels of mind. Changing your mental wavelengths will enable you to calm and balance your thoughts, emotions and feelings. You then can make the right decisions, can see and evaluate situations that are not tainted or influenced by outside emotions.
