Inhaltsangabe

There will come a time, a moment, whether in this lifetime or in another, when the soul will reach a stage when it needs to know more. It will no longer be satisfied with ambling along. It wants to get hold of its destiny, face it, and see where it is going, what it has achieved, and what other lessons are needed And then the soul, of its own volition, will become the captain of its ship, it will guide its own destiny, it will face the turbulent seas and storms and steer it through to calmer waters. This book offers a basic knowledge of spirituality. It answers questions that have been presented to the author over many years of facilitating workshops, giving talks, and seminars both in the UK and internationally. It also gives us guidance in how to find the inner self. Here is a quote from the book: As we continue the path and we start stripping off the layers that bind us, we will notice a different us emerging. That new person may be a little unfamiliar, a little uncertain, but at least it’s a more honest person. Gradually we get to know this person better, and as our confidence builds up, we will find an inner surge of strength and fortitude to carry on even more strongly in our search. This inner person is the real us—the beautiful light that has been hidden behind the scars, the jewel that has been polished by all the experiences of our struggles and battles, the rose that has been waiting to blossom by all the fruits of our endeavours, the one true being who is one with the universe.

CHAPTER 1

Spiritual Teaching

What is Spirit?

This is a subject that is both mystifying and disconcerting at the same time. We are all spirit. There has never been a time when we were not spirit. The spirit world is the natural world of creation. The spirit world is a world of Light, a sphere, a plane of consciousness that is our natural home – another level of existence. We were all created as a seed by the Absolute Being, to develop and unfold those spiritual qualities inherent in each one of us. This is a very simplistic way of putting it and for those who wish to study more, there is a wealth of books and teachers available to take you further on the path.

There are as many aspects of creation as there are different levels within each one of us. Here we are referring to the cosmos, made up of multiple universes, solar and planetary systems. With our finite mind, it is impossible to try to figure out the infinite mind. We cannot go there, but we do have a semblance of knowledge, again inherent in us, that gives us some understanding, although infinitesimal. As far as we can ascertain, through the many books of old, the Absolute Being, breathed out an energy, a fire, and life eventually (after aeons and aeons of time) became form. These forms were the initial constellations, planets, cosmic life, solar life and planetary life that we often hear or read about. This is a vast subject needing in-depth study. For those who would like to go further, there are many wonderful books about this.

There are three words which have been given in a number of teachings and which perhaps exemplifies Creation, and these are:

EXPERIMENT – EXPERIENCE – EXPRESSION

The whole of creation is an experiment - an experience that can only be measured by the myriad of forms' expressions.

Above the earth experience, is the etheric and astral, then the mental planes, then the buddhic, then higher levels which are known as atmic levels and even beyond. Each plane has seven levels of experience. Every individual soul will need to develop and unfold to reach the highest degree of realization in order to attain full consciousness and then move onto other planes of existence within the cosmos.

In my search for spirit, and initially coming from an orthodox religious upbringing, I thought that God was the ultimate. Little by little I started to think of the Creator of all life. Lately, I have concluded that if we truly believe that there is no beginning and no end, how can there be a Creator. A Creator suggests a beginning of something. So now through my own inner search I have realised that there is an Architect of all life, the Absolute Being – an Intelligence well beyond our finite minds understanding. Neither He nor She, just It! I believe the Absolute Being to be an immeasurable Energy, a Force which is both creative and destructive – destructive in order to create. Other than this, I can offer no other explanation. So much of what we understand or think we know about Creation is probably mere supposition. Many books have been written by distinguished and learned authors. The Masters themselves have chosen disciples through whom much knowledge has been imparted. It might be worthwhile to remember that we can only be given what we can understand at our level of development. Remember that the Masters too are developing and moving forward. They can see with a wider vision and clarity than we can and are there to help us, to guide us forward along the path. We need also to understand that there is a hierarchy of Masters, of Higher Beings (sometimes also called Monads) who are guiding the whole experience of humanity. Everything that happens has a purpose and a reason, be that of evolution, creation or 'destruction'.

With our finite minds, we can only glimpse at something so huge, so awesome, that is impossible to fathom. Nevertheless, what we do have is that inner knowing that there is something far greater than ourselves, something that we need to reach out and aspire to. Slowly our spirit guides us forward along a very long and often arduous journey. This journey is part of the evolution of life. All life is evolving constantly. Nothing stands still. This includes the planetary system, the universes and the Logos. Life is perpetual motion.

The earth planet is only a small fraction of what there exists in this incredible universe. And there are other universes, other galaxies, other cosmic spheres.

It is truly a wondrous journey!

What is the Spirit World?

The spirit world is our true home. This may appear rather basic and simplistic but nevertheless a true fact. A home where there are many companions and loved ones awaiting us. In the spirit world there are many levels or spheres of consciousness and we will go to whichever one our soul has reached in its path of evolution. We would be limiting ourselves if we think of loved ones as solely those we have known or loved in this earthly life. There are companions of our soul who have been with us in other lives and have shared our lessons. There are those who are karmically linked to us until we have cleared that karma. We all belong to group souls and aspects of that group soul incarnates at differing times according to the condition of what needs to be learned appertaining to the group soul. Whatever we learn, whatever we achieve, is also realised by our group soul. All experiences are recorded at group soul level and in the Akashic records. As we learn, they learn. As they learn (in other circumstances and experiences), we learn. And importantly, we grow.

Our home, our level of consciousness, in spirit will be determined by our endeavours on earth, in this lifetime and in previous ones. There is perfect justice, perfect outworking of spiritual law. Natural spiritual law is just and perfect. There is good order and no one escapes this. In spirit we cannot cheat, lie or deceive by thought, word or action. What we are, and what we have attained, is imprinted on the ether for all to see. What or rather who we are deep inside will show like a fingerprint, it is individual to us, it cannot lie nor can we cover it up. There is no escaping in spirit. But in these realms everyone is constantly learning and therefore understanding and compassionate and above all non-judgmental. There are many teachers, helpers who come to support us and help us to understand our lives on earth and the lessons we gained by those experiences. They will help us face our weaknesses and our qualities. With their guidance we will then be able to judge ourselves, or rather assess our past endeavours, and plan our next stage of development.

The spirit world is vibrant with life, there is plenty of activity and...
