Path of SpiritualityEvery human being always follows two paths in life. One path is followed by the physical self... the body! As a human being everyone desires having the best of career... living a modest life full of gaiety and laughter... in short enjoying the best of life. This has been made possible by the scientific developments taking place world over. The wanton desires... the need for materialistic riches also has its bad side. It plunges most human beings into the dungeon of cravings... crying for more and more. And at this point a human being introspects. One starts traveling the religious path of life... the other path! Some who crave for God take the path of spirituality. Almost 99% people remain religious.
religion is following the teachings of enlightened masters. Everyone religiously follows the teachings of enlightened masters like Mahavira, Gautama Buddha, Jesus Christ or Prophet Mohammed... but none thinks of becoming one! religion separates enlightened souls from mortals. On the contrary spirituality spells that every mortal has the potential within to become enlightened. religion persuades mortals to worship their religious masters. Spirituality persuades one to travel the spiritual path and become one like Mahavira, Gautama Buddha, Jesus Christ or Prophet Mohammed. The onus of traveling the path... religious or a spiritual is absolutely the prerogative of every human being. As a human being we have a total of 1.1 million manifestations (in the human form) until one reaches the stage of enlightenment. This journey of 1.1 million manifestations is roughly covered in 12.1 million earthly years... a long journey indeed. Most say... what the hurry is! But Mahavira, Gautama Buddha, Jesus Christ and Prophet Mohammed curtailed their journey and gained enlightenment in their very life. In the spiritual domain one is permitted to cut short the journey and reach... the 8.4 millionth manifestation... the last leg in the cosmic life cycle reaching which one gains entry into the kingdom of God (aka Vaikuntha in Hinduism). Science practically helps every human being live the best of life in the present domain... the span of 70 to 80 years. Religion helps maintain a balance between the materialistic and the inner world of our soul atman within. Spirituality prompts one to reach the end of cosmic life cycle at the earliest and gain enlightenment (kaivalya jnana) and finally salvation (moksha) in our lifetime. Who knows what form of life we might manifest in the next manifestation? Out of the total of 8.4 million manifestations on the whole... 7.3 million manifestations are passed in the form of insect life, plant life and animal life. The balance 1.1 million manifestations are to be lived as a human being. The journey of life is tough but not impossible! To choose or not to choose... the power is available with every human being! We all face hurdles in life... yet, choosing a path of life dear to our heart is the crux of life. Essay
