Death is coming

The closer death creeps up upon me the less I am able to understand the reasons for life or living.

Yes I have experienced a close family member dying and unlike television it takes decades to handle such a thing. To think I am going to put my family through such a thing when I finally leave is more horrific to me than the thought of death itself.

My life was and is still a learning experience but when all said and done what am I to do with all this accumulated learning over my lifetime if I just die. There is no logic or reason to this.

Long ago I became aware that the God story that is sold to the majority is just a nice story to give mankind with a message of a basic layout of how nice life could be if everyone followed these ideas. Not many in life do and if one thinks about it the good and evil structures actually depend on each other. The good that can be experienced in life is only understood as good when there is it's opposite to compare it to. This is not rocket science only common sense in reality. I am not saying we need to experience bad but understanding in it is needed to appreciate the great things many of us can have in our lives. From birth to death there are many ways mankind helps his fellow man. How many ways can you help?

Three Stages of Spiritual Enlightenment

By Therese Yemana


The basic goal when people undertake spiritual practice is enlightenment. The culminating point marked in the practices is when one already attains the spiritual enlightenment therefore they feel the unity of soul, leaving behind all physical and mental engagements and everything else. It is possessing highly evolved souls, and to share the kind of enlightenment that these spiritual masters experience they propagate it through the world.

For practical purposes, reaching spiritual enlightenment comes into levels. The spiritual masters develop from the first to the third levels.

The 1st one is the animality levels to which many people are likely to degrade themselves. In this period, you experience and live the reality as any individuals might. You may continuously take part in ordinary activities like talking, gossiping, preparing the future, analyzing everything about us, and so on and so forth. You are the normal, normal person walking around just like everybody else.

You are experiencing much like everybody else is experiencing, even though in this phase, you're already taking the signal to uplift the enlightenment of your soul to an even more meaningful existence. When spiritual enlightenment is considered, you're in a period when you are getting just everything as presented but you are also undergoing a feat to detach worldly things from your existence.

In the 2nd level, you rise into humankind, to which now constitutes the very nature of the human individuals. In this stage, the person experiences a connection to every person all around them and even to every object surrounding them. The experience makes them like sacrificing their very own individuality; however, the culmination is taking its mark signaling that a merge is going on between their very own with the Supreme soul.

As you feel you are no longer the individual that you are and instead one with everything around your environment, you are closing in with the Supreme Soul as everything comes from Him. This is a great experience that anyone can undergo because enlightening of the soul is starting to dawn with more promises to be a lot better later on with the succeeding stage.

In the 3rd level is the divinity, in which now spiritual masters convene back and merge with the very source where humankind came from. In this point, you don't feel connected with everything around you anymore. And this is not a sense of disconnection, rather you're already understanding that you are that everything. This means the spiritual enlightenment takes its course up to provide you with the experience where unity with God is already culminating.

Therefore right after experiencing the humankind, the divinity allows you to feel you're everything. Meaning, you're no longer your own body, mind, senses, and your intellect faculty. As well as in this stage, you're directly undertaking the divine experience, the attainment of God, which is the top stage that spiritual masters undertake.

When an individual undergoes spiritual enlightenment, all luck is in them for it is that fruit that sets them free from the material wants, wishes, and desires. It does not only make you feel the complete bliss of being free but gives you the experience that rarely is being undertaken by everybody else.
