Real abundance and true affluence

                                    

                        The primary purpose of us , Divine Beings, is to explore the depths of our soul and reach that everlasting source of happiness upto which we are destined to realize. As the Ultimate goal of us Divine Beings is to have our soul awareness awakened and to make tapping onto our permanent source of happiness a living reality, the by-product of the fully awake soul of abundant spiritual affluence is the only source of genuine achievement in the entire manifested Universe. To be temporarily amused by occasional impermanent happiness is all that the material realm can offer to the ordinary  mortals. On the other hand, the spiritually elevated planetary existence is such a fulfilling field which can convert a life of sadness to one of happiness, can transform  a human being  from profane to someone sacred, can transit a life of sorrow to one of immense joy, can overhaul a life of suffering to one of no-suffering and is the only field which can establish us as permanently happy beings till the moment we don’t shed our mortal bodies.

“Why is the spiritual field the only source of abundance and affluence in the entire Cosmos.”

                      It is because the end of human evolution comes through the spiritual growth process and therefore a spiritual evolution, completes the evolutionary process of mankind. This way, we can easily conclude that the Ultimate task and goal of us human beings is to get to realize our deepest Self. All human beings pursue material goals to keep themselves happy and satisfied but sadly happiness comes but arrives in our lives in a temporary manner with a mixture of failure, exhaustion, disappointments, anxieties, tragedies etc. So the normal human beings have no option but to settle  themselves as only temporarily happy human beings. On the other hand, the Ultimate objective of human beings and the spiritual exercise of reinvigorating their dormant human soul and awakening it establishes themselves as permanently happy human beings. Therefore, the goal of all human beings to remain in the happiness state is achieved in a temporary manner through the material medium and permanently through the spiritual field. The goal of human beings to remain permanently happy is only achieved through the spiritual realm, therefore, we can  conclude that the spiritual  field is the only source of abundance and affluence in the entire manifested Cosmos.

                      Now let us look at some spiritual qualities which produces the happiness nature and conclude why the spiritual field is the only source of real abundance and affluence.

                     All Self-realised people transcend the state of desires and achieve freedom from desires. A state of no-desires converts someone into the happiest human being on the planet. The root cause to human suffering and the end to happiness comes when someone clings onto desires and is unable to fulfill them. The inefficiency and incapacity of the incomplete human potential to fulfill their desires produces great sorrow and immense suffering. J.Krishnamurti states that the important point of a spiritual life is to live a life without a single problem. "What gives rise to problems?" Naturally it is desires. "And what is it that gives rise to desires? "It is the  implantation of a seed of thought. So a Yogi who stops fuelling a thought that gives rise to desires is a man without a single problem. So the Self-Realised state of no-desires converts that gent into the happiest being on the planet because he is desireless which naturally implies that he is a man without a single problem. In spiritual terms, less is more and the less you desire the more happier you are. One has to beg for material wealth through the worldly life by slugging, diplomacy or some hard and fast rules. Whereas, the spiritual life is a boon because merely releasing a desire into your awareness is enough to fulfill it and one has the ability to manifest his desires for anything he wants.

                            In the material life, you will need a storehouse of a vast expanse of energy and punishing effort to fulfill your worldy desires, even then all of your desires are not easily fulfilled. The material world is an inefficient medium because it lacks the capacity to fulfill all of your desires. Whereas, the effortless effort of spiritual energy has that rare potential to fulfill any of the desires  that you may have. Temporary happiness can be availed and comes at a cost of having to swim in an ocean of sorrow, hopelessness, suffering, frustration and tragedies. In the spiritual  life, permanent happiness can be contacted without having to invest a single penny. The entire mystery of being established in permanent happiness lies in the spiritual secret of being in the state of no-desires. Even if one has desires, the Infinite field of everlasting Grace endows a spiritual being with the rare capacity to manifest his desires for anything he wants. So we can easily conclude whether it is in exhausting the human physical engine and rotating in a cycle of suffering and not getting anything you want real abundance and affluence or if it is achieving the everlasting source of happiness by being established in a state of no-desires and plus being endowed with the rare spiritual capacity of getting anything you want,  the real and the only source of fulfillment.

                             Human senses blocks permanent happiness into our lives whereas transcending the material sensory tools establishes us into the field of everlasting happiness. Human senses depend on it and objects of its material attraction  for temporary means of happiness whereas going beyond onto the spiritual field employs true love and beauty of great purity for fulfillment. Likewise, identification with the transient and unreal can never establish us as Self-Realised Beings but rather getting totally disidentified with the external world converts us into  torchbearers of Self-Knowledge. Therefore transcending the human senses and the transient and unreal would directly imply we being less sex maniacs but more God natured and being less addictive to luxury and wealth, finding no worth in competing for material gains rather finding meaning in exploring the depths of our soul. So we now know that being free of the clutches of the human senses and that which is transient and unreal is the only medication in establishing ourselves as residents of the superhuman field of permanent happiness. Transcending the human senses and not being attentive to the transient and unreal so as being established in virtuous qualities of goodness, love and being  great admirers of untouched virgin beauty which fills our life with permanent happiness would in other words mean achieving real abundance and true  affluence. (We know it is not money that keeps someone happy but it is satisfaction, the source of happiness which keeps us abundantly and afffuently happy).

                                 When we transcend the human emotions we become independent to the play of the opposite polarities. Therefore, we become free from the effects of emotions like disappointments, sadness, sorrow, tragedies etc. These kinds of emotions stop affecting our lives in the least manner. When we stop being affected by the play of the opposite polarities the natural calm of the state of happiness is added onto our soul awareness with more strength. The dissolving of the human emotions is another added bonus to the happiness state as we are still happy and independent to the   play  of the opposite polarities plus yet another asset in living a life of real abundance and true affluence. Living the non-dual nature and the halt of further mental disturbance would be another milestone in being spiritually abundant and affluent.

                             We all have a great task at hand to make the journey from the known to the unknown or from the state of the dormant human soul to  a fully vibrant one. To be in a desireless state or to be swamped by an Infinity of desires, to let the human senses get a hold onto you to close doors to higher awareness or to be in full control over the human senses and rejuvenate the soul onto superconscious states, to get cornered by the difficulties of human emotions or to transcend them, to evolute materially or spiritually and to enjoy the non-dual thought state or to get forever distracted by mental turbulence, everything is a choice. But in this age of enlightment, living a spiritually abundant and affluent life, perhaps, is the only wise choice since the present moment of consciousness revolution promises great spiritual miracles through the Ultimate Grace of God. Whiling away our precious human life in this period of great spiritual potential is wasting one priceless life by getting deprived of the truly and spiritually,  a genuine abundant and affluent life.

                                  As Mr.Dipak Chopra the great clearly points out,

“There can be no more important task in our life than to get in touch  with our own inner Self, the source of all Being.”
