73. Is there any harm in taking a break from our spiritual practice to enjoy a bit of life?
Everything you do in life, you are either moving forward spiritually, or moving into areas of consciousness detrimental to your search and long-term journey towards higher levels of spiritual consciousness. (L7)
As you lift your level of ‘consciousness frequencies’, you will find that you are inwardly strengthened in spirit and life force – and the opposite occurs when you find yourself entrapped in lower consciousness vibrations, either through a personal descent into lower thought frequencies or by being emotionally drawn into them through communication with a negative or egotistic personality. When this happens, you will experience a loss of energy. This loss of energy results in a depletion of physical energy in your body cells. (L7)
Therefore, when deliberately setting out on a spiritual journey, you should visualise yourself as being like a traveller boarding a train bound for the destination of your choice. (L7)
If, when travelling, you leap out of the window on glimpsing verdant valleys or exciting cities offering pleasures of some sort, and go wandering into highways and byways far removed from the journey you had originally undertaken, you will find it very difficult to resume that original journey. (L7)
First of all, you will have to go through a cleansing of the lower consciousness energies you absorbed during your jaunts into other areas of interest. This may take a long time and you may have to go through other painful experiences to enable you to go through the necessary cleansing of your consciousness again. (L7)
You never escape the processes of consciousness nor from the inexorable working of the Laws of Existence. You cannot put your life on hold as you dodge off to have a little fling which you think won’t matter since no one will know. (L7)
Whatever you do is an action in consciousness and whatever it is – promotional of your well-being or contrary to your highest good – will have its repercussions of a like nature. (L7)
Everything in your life is related to some other activity in consciousness. Nothing is isolated from everything else. (L7)
People think that what they do today is in a compartment. They think that ‘today’ becomes yesterday and is past, it can have no bearing on their ‘today’. But – unfortunately for them – they will find it cropping up in their experience as ‘reaping time’ in six months, a year or even ten years ahead – when the consciousness energies have attracted what is necessary to bring about their visible manifestation. Then people wonder – why did this happen to me? Why me? (L7)
You must understand that when you embark on a spiritual journey, you have set foot to a path which will lift your consciousness vibrations to higher levels. (L7)
Carelessness and inconsistency will lead you into a condition of swinging between levels of vibrationary frequencies. (L7)
These times of inconsistency are fraught with emotional pain. As you swing, the original momentum of spiritual energy which previously lifted your spiritual vision, dies away and eventually you complain it is hard to get back to prayer and meditation. It is difficult to make the contact with Divine Consciousness that you were able to make before you went off on some pleasurable jaunt which led to a dropping of your consciousness frequencies. In this way, by giving in to overpowering impulses, you make life difficult for yourself, you walk a more rocky path. (L7)
At the same time, the impulses within your consciousness indicate that certain areas of your human consciousness need refining. The impulses become the necessary means to teach you some important lesson. In fact, no one can move on to the narrow path leading to the ‘Kingdom of Heaven’ and remain there without divergence or deviation until they have thoroughly experienced the fruits of their hidden impulses. By fully experiencing all they have to offer, people eventually arrive at a clear understanding that they were false enticements – not worth the pain and tremendous effort involved in getting back on the spiritual path again. Only when the deeply ingrained impulses have been indulged and the results imprinted in the consciousness, can a deliberate mental and emotional choice be made to live life on a higher spiritual level. When this final decision is made decisively and positively, the former impulses are then erased from the consciousness. (L7)
But I have to tell you that when you do make the choice to live your life on a higher spiritual level, you have not necessarily come to the end of your problems. In ignorance of what is real and false in higher spirituality, you may find yourself attracted to different cults which will lead you further into a wilderness without ending. (L7)
