WHAT IS REAL(ITY)?


Reality as such cannot be ultimately defined because it is forever changing and also dependent upon individual perception of life. This perception depends upon one's degree of consciousness. Furthermore can reality be subdivided into an objective and a subjective kind. Within the bounds of this Universe God alone is in a position to perceive the whole of the objective reality, whose essence is of all-pervading love-consciousness. While the perception of each individual part in manifestation is either being wholly taken up by the belief in its subjective reality and thus limited in its awareness of the greater reality - if not even completely blind to it. Or, if the individual part of the Universe has caught a glimpse of the Divine reality and thus its view of reality encompasses besides its own, part of the objective one.

So upon the personal level, reality is defined by the scope of individual awareness. It is the sum total of the experienced consciousness. Therefore what you are seeing as reality is a reflection of your state of consciousness. However unless you have freed your consciousness from its identification with your lower self and its appertaining Ego, your reality will be largely or even completely over-shadowed by its inherent fears and set beliefs.
Because the less your conscious awareness of life is taken up by personal thoughts/emotions/sensations, the more fully you are able to understand the omnipresent Divine reality of Love and Light. In moments, in which you are living with your consciousness resting in the here-now, your individual awareness is attuned to the objective reality of God, making the limiting boundaries of your subjective reality temporarily disappear. This attunement beween your individual awareness of of life and the Divine reality can also be brought about intentionally by focussing your personal awareness upon the bright side of life instead of concentration upon its shadows. And unconsciously this fusion of reality-levely is occurring in moments, in which unconditional joy and love are being experienced.

ALWAYS A WAY

There is always a way out of any situation in life. If at times you feel there is none it is because you are staring straight ahead believing to be infallibly sure of your next step. Instead of allowing yourself the possibility to turn around a walk back a few steps from whence you came from and simply observe your prior position from this little distance. Or to look left and right instead of believing there is only one possible direction in which it is possible to walk in - or that you must go that way and no other for some reason.

TRUE SPIRITUALITY

True spirituality is a 24/7 task and not a weekend occupation to be enjoyed at leisure. Contrary to the view the purely materialistically minded individuals take, to be spiritual does not imply one dodges life's responsibilities. In fact, the opposite is the case. To turn one's steps towards the spiritual pathway in life is a sign of inner strength and means that one is finally willing to grow up and accept one's responsibilites. However atuning your-self to the Divine Light and reaching out to the spiritual heights does not have the immediate effect of instilling eternal light-heartedness and blissfulness in your heart and mind (- although the media are doing their best to promote this idea). In order to attain to such a state of Being, fortitude, endurance and faith are required, because along this pathway there are personal shadows to be faced and many a dark wilderness of the soul to be traversed. Especially at the onset of the spiritual path of Light it may appear ...

NATURAL SHARING

We are all part of an integrated whole and as such share our unconscious as well as our conscious aspects of self. To be blissfully living with our self and in the world transforms us to channels of love, peace and freedom. Therefore, in being consciously aware of the moment and its beauty we are naturally and effortlessly sharing with everyone that, which is most precious in life - love.
