WHAT IS
SPIRITUALITY?
Spirituality
is not,
Casually,
Thinking about it,
Talking about it,
Going to church,
Taking classes,
Or reading books.
Spirituality
is,
Preparing your,
Body and mind,
To receive God's
Inspiration:
In your thinking,
In your speech,
And in your actions.

it feels like to die,
what
death is,
foreknowledge
of one's own death.
"Though
the aspirant should show devotion to many scriptures and
teachers, he must take from all of them the essence only,
as a bee takes the essence from many flowers."
All
of the above books marked (*) came to me through

A Review of the
major points in this journal for realizing Spiritual
Enlightenment.
If
I had to choose one book to guide me on my path to
spiritual enlightenment, it would be: Footprints
on
the path,
by Eileen Caddy...(God
Spoke to Me,
by Eileen Caddy
is also excellent.)
These
books contain the words of Eileen's Inner Voice... the
voice of God within.
They outline in simple clear language the practical
information needed to live a spiritual life today. They
are beautifully written... truly eloquent... and very
inspiring! The message in these books will resonate with
your own Inner Being... we are one... God is one. Pete
The
path to spiritual enlightenment is a razors edge, steep
and treacherous to the person who is foolish, on the
right hand insanity and the left death.
Simply put, the rational mind thinks, the Soul just
knows. The mind presented with this problem says,
"Yes, 100+150+235, let's see, that equals 485."
The Soul, on the other hand, presented with the same
problem just knows, 485. No thinking, just knowledge.
The major problem, as you can readily see, is to keep the
'rational mind' sane while crossing the unknown to the
'All Knowing Soul.' The path requires total dedication,
discipline, knowledge and courage.
The path is not a 'Sunday stroll', but rather like a
narrow ledge along a cliff face, interspersed with flat
rocky plateaus. In the beginning, the path may ascend
sharply with great learning but soon the first plateau is
reached which seems spiritually barren. These plateaus
are places to rest, a place to apply what has been
learned and a test of resolve. Resting overlong means to
slide back, you must continue to ascend or be dragged
down.
There is no fee at the gateway to the path leading to
spiritual enlightenment. The key to enter, is the burning
desire to know the truth.The
materials required can be carried in a backpack: clothes
for decency, a towel for bathing, paper and pencils for
notes, a couple of books, whatever you need for the
trail. The only other burdens you will carry are the
truths you realize in your heart and mind as you ascend
the path and the dawning knowledge that the earth and it's
people are living in almost total spiritual darkness. You
must be strong to stay on the path.
You need no expensive spiritual enlightenment workshops
or classes, gurus or teachers, correspondence courses,
retreats, or trips to India on
the path.You
the student are your own teacher, you just need to
realize the truth and apply it as you ascend the path.
You are an individualized conscious part of the 'Whole'
all knowledge is within your grasp. All you need to do is
to seek the truth, apply it, and with God's Grace you
will reach the goal.
The
journey on this path to spiritual enlightenment requires
that you be as physically fit as possible, pure in body
and mind, give up all desire for sex and the pleasures of
food, eat a raw food diet,* be clean in habitat and bath
daily, continually study nature both seen and unseen,
keep your mind and emotions under complete control,
overcome disease and pain, become good and do good
always, serve others, be gentle and kind in thought, word
and deed, live a simple unassuming low profile natural
lifestyle, use a minimum of speech in your daily
dealings, and continue on the path although you feel that
you are failing completely. You have not failed until you
give up.
The
above rules are for the life of a prophet. If you cannot fulfil
them all, do the best you can... but above all, follow
the path given to you by your Inner Voice.
The
path of the prophet is not an easy lifestyle for today,
except for a few people. The ordinary person observing
someone on that path might say, "Oh, that person
seeking spiritual enlightenment is completely
crazy." But then, "What virtue is it to be
considered sane in a completely insane world."
There
are many paths
But the goal is the same in each.
There is always the easy way
Or the hard way of reaching the goal.
There is the direct route
Or the devious route
Which leads up highways and byways.
The choice is always up to the individual.
You are absolutely free
To choose your own path.
Therefore seek and follow it
And in the end you will reach the goal:
Your self-realisation
of Me
The divinity within you.
From,
The
Living Word by
Eileen Caddy

"One
person in a hundred thousand will find the true path to
spiritual enlightenment,
one in a million will walk it." It is better to
never set your foot on the path than to do so and fail,
because you will live the rest of your life with an
underlying feeling of discontent, heartbreak and regret.
If you can avoid this path, and live a happy life in this
society, do so, if you cannot... dedicate your life
completely to the path of the seeker and never give up.
"Better
never begin; once begun, better finish."
Seeking
spiritual enlightenment is a lifetime commitment. Be
prepared to make your seeking a lifestyle... the path you
follow year after year. Make your inner search for
realization of spiritual enlightenment a way of life...
and live your life gently, day by day, and be happy. Love
your life... or change it until you do!
"To
reach a perfect spiritual life,
You have to live that life,
And practice it,
Day in,
and
Day out."
The
goal of spiritual enlightenment is the goal in life for
every human being born on this earth, and it awaits each
of us just over the horizon in our own mind. Stay on the
path until the goal is reached.
The
True
Path to Spiritual Enlightenment
Is
one Based on Simplicity and the Truth.
Seek Within and Find your Inner Voice
Know that this Voice,
is the Voice of God
And
as the Father
Within
Guided
Jesus
He will Guide You Unerringly to the Goal.

"DEAR
LORD
YOUR WILL

Go with

P. S.
As Aldous
Huxley wrote, "There's only one corner of
the universe you can be certain of improving... and
that's your own self."
"How
wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment
before starting to improve the world." Anne
Frank
* Raw
food diet: Fresh (or dried), organic, fruits and
vegetables, nuts, sprouted grains and seeds, herbs, raw
milk (with leafy greens) and raw honey. "Let the
weight of your daily food be not less than a mina, [one
pound+/-] but mark that it go not beyond two." Eat
only enough to sustain life. This diet is alkaline
forming and provides all of the simple
sugars.
From: The Essene
Gospel of Peace Book I, p. 43
A
raw food diet provides all the nourishment the body needs
and eliminates well. Cooked and acid-forming foods (meat,
dairy and grains) leave a mucus residue in the body which
clogs the system and creates a breeding ground for germs.
"Living
[raw] foods vibrate with a special energy which affects
you physically and mentally. They give you the strength,
clarity of mind, confidence and sense of well being that
make you want to do what is best for your body. That is
something no diet of cooked foods and no amount of
vitamin pills and food supplements will ever do." From
Raw Energy (Raw Food Diet)
Anyone
can prove the benefit of physical purity described in
these journals by eating a raw food diet (fruit and
vegetables) and fasting one day each week for thirty
days. The result of this is hard to believe by anyone who
has not experienced it. Please see the following:

Cure#2.
