Podcast- Unit 3 - Spirituality for Instant Gratification?

These days it is the in thing to say that one is on the spiritual path. One needs to look deep down inside the reason for being on the spiritual path.  Is instant gratification the motivating factor?  That means spirituality is being made into a business model. Unfortunately it doesn’t work like that.

The ultimate realization is to understand that everything is ONE. There is a Universal plan or grid according to which the Universe runs. If we try to achieve or get anything that is not in tune with the Universal grid, it doesn’t happen.

When you have walked that spiritual path, your  wishes will be in tune with the Universal grid and as you go still further, you cease having ‘wishes’ because you know whatever you need (as opposed to WANT) always come to you.

All the experiences we had decided, at the soul level, to undergo in this Earthly life, we will undergo. Being in the spiritual path helps you to keep your inner self in a joyful, peaceful state, while keeping on doing all the worldly duties.

Amalgamation of fragmented life

As we start going against Nature, our lives get fragmented, bringing in guilt, anger and helplessness. As a human being, we have masculine and feminine aspects within us. They need to be in balance and in synchronization to lead a peaceful and happy life.

Only masculine aspect honoured?

From childhood, a boy is reprimanded for crying or expressing emotions because it is considered shameful for a boy to behave like a girl. On growing older, suppressing the feminine aspect becomes second nature to majority of men.

An woman gets more accolades for the worldly achievements, establishing themselves in the ‘male dominated’ areas. Sincere compliments for keeping the house in order, preparing wholesome meals day after day and bringing up well balanced kids are hard to get. The corporate machinery leaves no stone unturned to instil into the female brains that, ‘You are destined to do things to make the world progress by working hard in the corporate  set up, not to toil in the kitchen. We will provide you the food. You just immerse in the tasks that the company expects you to do.’

With the exponential scientific progress, man started thinking he is above Nature. But we are very much part and parcel of Nature.

Feminine Earth and Masculine Sky

Earth is our mother and the Sky our father. What are the qualities of Earth: nourishing, nurturing, supporting and having unlimited patience.  These qualities are given to the feminine gender, which makes it possible for them to bear children and they are endowed with patience to bring up kids. But the constant emanation of information contrary to this has made women lose their feminine qualities. I understood the seriousness of this aspect when I heard my daughter saying to her friend one day, ‘When everybody wants to wear trousers and nobody likes to wear skirts, where will the world go?’

The sky on the other hand, is there to give protection from above; it lets the Sunshine and the rains to reach us. If we expect the sky to grow plants for us, it is our foolishness.

Similarly, men and women are part of Nature, their roles are equally important and they are equipped to do their job best.

Basic aspects have been neglected too long

We have travelled a long distance from our natural path and this is causing a lot of heart ache, relationship problems, guilty conscience, immense suppressed anger and a joyless existence.

Is there a way out?

Yes, definitely. We can bring back the lost feminine aspect in both men and women to live in tune with Nature. 

Going against nature is not the way, but to live in harmony with it should be made the aim of the future. Are you ready to do this and bring in an amalgamation of our fragmented lives to get back to wholesomeness? You can indeed do this, if you have this one basic necessity – Trust in Yourself.
