The game of spiritual evolution
Happiness... we all want it, but do we even know what we are looking for?
In this moment in time the enormous social (media) pressure, infinite possibilities and modern technology are pulling and pushing us deeper into our individualistic body-mind experience, and promise us happiness. To end the struggle to survive and start thriving.
But, when we stop for just a moment and feel into ourselves, can we honestly say we are really getting closer to the goal of happiness? Or is it just our narrow little life on repeat? Do you recognise the same old patterns? Its old wine in new bottles. For a while you feel better, but soon you will find out that it just feels different, not really better. And then it hits you with a hamer... you are going round in circles, like a dog chasing its own tail. All this time you didn't see you were chasing a dream.
"Hello! How are you doing in there? Are you having fun yet?"
~ Michael Singer
Are you experiencing inner peace, unconditional love and joy yet? No! So what now? You are on the verge of freaking out and you are running out of options.
Now take a new look at your life. Yes you've build it to be safe and thrive. You're making such an effort in perfectioning your human life. But with trying to 'master' being human, you've made your human mind 'King of your Empire'. And this king is a king of war, not of peace. When you are able to really see this, you will be disgusted with it. It means "game over" for the kingdom of the human mind.
Please do not feel bad, you did what you had to do. Your whole life has been just perfectly right every step of the way. You played and learned. But you have got to change your game now. How this is done is quite simple...turn inward. Turn all your attention to your inside, get rid of the addiction of listening to your human mind and looking to the outside world to bring you happiness. The big treasure that you were looking for, was inside of you all this time; becoming conscious of your soul!
Let us call this moment your awakening, the moment your soul knocks at your door and says: "Thank you so kind for your service, I will handle it from here."
Human life is a 'game', a beautiful and inevitable journey all human-souls go through. This is how we evolve. The game is not about finishing as a perfect human or end up as the winner of human species, it is to live life to the fullest and learn from it, relax in it, reflect on it, and let it all go. Zoom out and look at it from a higher point of view.
So whats next in spiritual evolution? Lets put it this way: "Be involved in the world, do not get entangled in it and free your mind of all that is unreal". Let your soul be your guide to your own divinity. This is the true "King of your Empire". It will show you a new kind of game which bring you the happinness you long for:
"Living in Truth – Peace of Mind – Unconditional Love"
