Spirituality
Subscribe to my RSS feed Now-a-days there is much talk about spirituality being on the rise and that there is a big change about to take place in terms of spiritual existence. So, many inroads and strides are being made, all supposedly toward the ultimate goal.I started getting curious about how many people had a clue what the ultimate goal is. It was the same curiosity that years ago allowed me to ask people who use the word "God" as their label for Divinity, "What is God's ultimate Intention?" (I asked because, upon deep reflection, most people realize salvation is neither the beginning nor the end of the ultimate intention.) This got me wondering, what is spirtuality, and what is behind all this talk about spirituality being on the rise, etc. and it reminded me of an incident that happened recently that so pointedly makes the argument that spirituality has been dumbed-down to be more acceptable so as to gain a larger market share, so to speak.I was speaking for a New Age Church in the local area on a recent Sunday, and I asked them what I consider the most fundamental spiritual question of all - the question was: How many people here want to be enlightened? The response I got was one of an old dog staring at a new bowl. Many were confused. Not many people wanted enlightenment. Few even knew it as the end or even a part of the path of spirituality. They understood nothing about polarities or unity/oneness. Out of the whole group, only one person said she wanted enlightenment. One lady said, "Maybe in my next lifetime because I have passion that I need to experience now." One lady said she was "already enlightened", and then proceeded to complain, argue and exclude anything and everything that was outside of her limited belief system. Then I asked, "What are you doing here then? Why would you be on a spiritual path in the first place? What's the end of such a path? After questioning, all the answers had to do with external things being in a particular order, so that internally they could experience some particular state of being (Peace/Happiness/Love). Even though they gave conscious agreement that it all comes from the inside, unconsciously they were looking outside to get the stimulus for their internal state. The sense that was present was; learning and never quite learning enough, which usually leaves one with excuses, explanations, stories for whatever is happening in their lives. It fascinated me, and yet I surmise (another way of saying, "I guess") that much of this particular audience's background was of the Christian heritage, because the ritual and format of the gathering was pretty much similar to the way we did it back in the day when I was a pastor in organized Christianity. The only difference was we added in a meditation this time. There is way more to this than most people think, and that is a lot more practical than most of the "woo-woo" out there.
