Interconnected Pathways of Meditation and Spirituality
Meditation and spirituality are two different, but inter-connected
entities. This is because most people believing in spirituality
use meditation to reach spirituality. And once you achiever
spirituality, you realize the connection you have with the
universe and our planet.
Meditation and spirituality are two interesting words that are
somehow inter-related to each other. When you speak of
spirituality, it refers to infinite consciousness in a person.
However this does not mean that spirituality and spiritualism are
similar as spiritualism is a different concept altogether that is
concerned with mediums that may be used to communicate with the
dead, etc.
Spirituality is the same truth that one realizes through the great
spiritual teachers of the world. Teachers in history like Buddha,
Krishna and Jesus are all spiritual teachers who have guided their
followers to reach their infinite consciousness. To them, the goal
of one’s life lies in merging the individual mind so that it
reaches infinite consciousness by using spiritual meditation.
When you speak of meditation, it refers to a form of concentrated
thinking. This concentrated thinking is not just any form of
concentrated thinking; it is a process where you have to make your
mind concentrate the source of consciousness found within
yourself. This is not possible overnight; it is only after
continuous and ardent meditations will you discover that your
consciousness is infinite. And it is only for this reason that
many a times, the goal of meditation is considered to be ‘self
realization’.
Remember that meditation can never be done as it is a serene and
boundless entity. It is something that cannot be pursued
immediately or directly, and can never be reached on demand.
However it is only with your concentration, will you realize that
there is joy waiting for you out there; and that there is harmony,
joy and awareness within you that is waiting to be reclaimed and
recognized.
Many a time, those who seek to get enlightenment or have some sort
of spiritual experience resort to using meditation as a medium or
vehicle to reach spirituality. This is because it is believed, and
should be known that that it is possible to reach the deeper
levels of awareness in your mind through meditation.
You will have to practice intensively with unwavering
determination if you want to reach your sense of spirituality
through meditation. Spirituality is not something that can be
acquired or reached without any hard work from your side. Many
people try to avoid the many barriers that may come in your path
when seeking enlightment through spirituality when it is required
that these barriers in meditation be overcome for enlightment.
Many people ask if there is a shortcut to meditation and
spirituality. This is not possible as it is possible to reach true
enlightment through meditation only if you first get to reach
enlightment. Besides using meditation, the only way you can
achieve this in a more effective and quicker method is by having a
desire for enlightenment and spirituality. In the process, it is
also important that you remain honest with yourself throughout the
process.
With meditation, it is also possible to reach spirituality by
‘dismantling’ and ‘releasing’ whatever ego or personality you have
in your energy field altogether. This is because many a time, it
is this personality or ego in yourself that may hamper your
progress in meditation.
On reaching spirituality or enlightment through meditation, you
tend to experience a feeling of lightness, inner piece,
confidence, inner knowledge, energy and love for self and others.
It is also possible for you to develop a deep connection with the
planet, the universe and other species while experiencing a
feeling of buoyancy, resilience and inner knowing in yourself.
So in a nutshell, it is possible for you to reach or attain
spirituality with hard work, determination and the right form of
meditation.
