Spirituality is one word which puts a human being on the highest
pedestal of life. It is field of Spirituality traveling on which
one reaches the last leg of cosmic life nay the form of human
being himself!
The goal of Spirituality is attaining salvation (moksha in
Hinduism)! From the beginning of the first manifestation as an
amoeba to the last manifestation (the 8.4 millionth
manifestation)... the goal of every life remains the same.
The phase of life as a human being announces that the life has
come full circle. It is only as a human being that one can get
enlightened (reach the stage of Nirvikalpa samadhi) and attain
salvation (moksha in Hinduism). Reaching the stage of
enlightenment is the last step in the field of Spirituality.
Spirituality is living life as it was meant to be... not as we
may have desired or wanted living it. Living a life of choice is
not the forte of all human beings. Those on the path of pure
Spirituality... the true seekers of Spirituality are sometimes
able to manifest destiny by establishing absolute control over
it.
It is a certain fact that only the true seekers of Spirituality
become the masters of their destiny. Knowingly or unknowingly
many people who have a materialistic goal in life travel the
path of Spirituality and become successful in life. It was not a
happening by chance... all was the result of a law which cannot
err. These highly acclaimed individuals unknowingly tread the
path of pure Spirituality and achieved the goal of their life.
Spirituality in other terms means that before we ask God the
Almighty for material riches to be bestowed upon us... we need
to compensate by giving something equivalent or more back to the
community. This is the path undertaken by most successful
entrepreneurs.
In terms of Spirituality we are not supposed to get anything
unless we promise to do something in return... in the system of
God there is fair play all throughout. As we desire... so shall
be the corresponding karma we would be required to perform. Mere
false promises bring us nothing.
It was the forte of JRD Tata that he always loved his country
and the countryman. The benefit of the society was foremost in
his mind all the time. The prime reason why the Tata Empire is
known as the foundation builder of India! Tata name itself is
representative of building a technological Empire for the
benefit of entire nation. This is what Spirituality is all about.
JRD Tata was a trustee par excellence. According to him
everything belonged to God and he was merely a trustee carrying
out the dictates of God. In his lifetime he never built a house
for himself. His love for the material riches of life did not
seem to exist at all. His every endeavor was aimed at improving
the quality of life of human life and the country as a whole.
What a noble persona JRD Tata was... a true karma yogi indeed!
He did not live Spirituality rather Spirituality lived in him.
He was a perfect example of how a true spiritual seeker must
live his life. JRD may have never admitted that he lived a
spiritual life but unknowingly he practiced Spirituality every
moment of his life.
JRD Tata followed the dictates of Bhagwad Gita throughout his
life unknowingly. Apart from being a true karma yogi... he also
excelled in teaching the core values to the society. He was one
of the rarest kinds that have ever dwelled on mother earth as
material riches and comforts in life never attracted him come
whatever may.
JRD Tata excelled in human values to the extent that even most
accomplished people on the path of pure Spirituality get dwarfed
by his accomplishments. Spirituality is not only seeking the
domain of God but even in day-to-day matters of life every human
being needs to practice Spirituality.
The famous saying, "whatever we want others to do unto us... we
should do unto them" forms the core teachings of Spirituality.
It is not merely a saying. It has to be practiced in reality as
was preached and advocated by Napoleo
n Hill in his famous books "Think and
Grow Rich", "Master Key
to Riches" and the famous " Law of Success
in sixteen lessons".
These three Bible books by Napoleo
n Hill... "Think and
Grow Rich", "Master Key
to Riches" and the famous " Law of Success
in sixteen lessons" form the core of Spirituality. There is
no argument about that. At every stage Napoleon hill has
prophesied that before we can expect anything from God we need
to give something back to the community. He was also a true
practitioner of Spirituality from heart.
Spirituality definitely helps one take control of destiny. As we
proceed on the path of pure Spirituality we tend to develop a
positive approach towards life. Reeling all the time under a
positive attitude of mind... One is able to fine-tune those
critical aspects of life which are an absolute must if one needs
to become the master of his own destiny.
Spirituality makes a perfect man out of a negative thinker. In
the field of Spirituality there is no place for any negative
thinking. One who has fixed a goal in life and always indulges
in positive oriented thinking can not be a loser in life. It can
never happen!
Spirituality imbibes the following virtues in a human being:
Spirituality makes you feel all the time that there is something
higher than the mere existence as a human being.
Spirituality spells out that God exists within every living
being as our soul (the atman within). It is God within us which
guides us on the right path whenever we tend to go wrong.
Spirituality inculcates in every human being a feeling of
positive ness all throughout. Floating on the positive mental
plane brings one closer to our goal of life.
It is Spirituality and spirituality alone which prompts and
guides one in the right direction whenever we feel cheated by
the senses prevailing upon us. To be able to come out of the
clutches of the five senses is what Spirituality is all about.
If we desire to know God truly then we need to follow the path
of pure Spirituality. It is only as a true spiritual seeker
shall we realize God one-day.
It is a Spirituality which cuts short the path and makes the
whole world look like a family. In the spiritual domain there is
no space for different religions, dogmas or creeds. Our wanton
desires cease to exist... the moment Spirituality takes complete
control over us!
Spirituality truly is the essence of life. However, materialistic
we maybe on the earthly plane... there shall come a day when
Spirituality would completely wipe us clean of all the
impurities within us.
Without Spirituality the life or a human being is like a
rudderless boat going round and round in the unfathomable sea of
life.
It is Spirituality which teaches every human being the real
value of life... being spiritual is not being religious alone...
Spirituality teaches us the core values of life... the real
essence of us!
It is only through the medium of Spirituality that God is able
to guide the mankind towards its destined goal. As many human
beings... as many different spiritual paths!
Right from day one when we are born and until the last breath...
it is Spirituality which keeps our heart pumping all through. It
is Spirituality which clears all doubts that our soul (the atman
within the body) is the real master and our body is but to decay
and die.
Spirituality clears all doubts related to the concept of God.
Whenever in doubt... the wise follow the dictates of the
spiritual masters of the era! Every spiritual being merges his
identity with the Supreme Being (the Almighty God).
Spirituality confirms that life has to go on... it is a journey
to be completed in many phases (8.4 million manifestations in
fact). It is Spirituality which confirms that the life of a
human being of 70 to 80 years is but a trickle in the total life
a span of our soul (the atman within). The total life span of
the soul being a maximum of 96.4 million earthly years!
Spirituality has no relationship whatsoever with religion.
Following a religion means following the dictates of a
successful spiritual master... one who has already covered the
journey and has become capable of guiding the mankind to its
logical end.
Religion is meant for living a single span of earthly life. On
the contrary Spirituality guides every living being to its
logical end in the unending cosmic journey undertaken by the
soul (our atman within).
It is Spirituality alone which removes the fear of death from
those who have released the pinnacle of spiritual life.
Spirituality gives you a commanding position in life. One can
work for above 23 hours per day having gained absolute control
over sleep. This is not only possible but can be observed by
watching the topmost rung of spiritual masters.
The presence of Spirituality in our lives cannot be done away
with for it forms the inner core of our manifested physical
life. Behind every success lies the core of Spirituality which
guides one inherently all throughout the cosmic journey.
In practice... when I started in search of God at an early age
of 13 years... I was so confused about life that I thought it
was only the religious masters who shall guide me on the right
path. I was so wrong.
It was at the age of 37 that I came in contact with God
one-to-one basis. It was the pinnacle of my spiritual pursuit.
My life had come full circle. This was to be my last
manifestation. I had reached the end of cosmic life. The
distinction between Spirituality and religion were now
absolutely clear to me.
Having been able to traverse the path as a true seeker of
Spirituality and reach the end goal has been a really pleasant
experience. Everything I try to convey to the community is based
on true personal experience of life. Being my last sojourn on
Mother Earth I have but to impart the pearls of Spirituality I
have learned before I leave the mortal frame.
Spirituality is not to be practiced merely in theory.
Spirituality is not contained in the sacred textbooks alone. We
simultaneously need to practice pure Spirituality and try
reaching the end of the cosmic life. Achieving salvation in the
present life would be something every human being would desire.
Why not all of us practice pure Spirituality all the time!
