Spiritual Discoveries Through Meditations

 What I really like about any beginnings is the naivety of any beginner; no fear, no bad experiences to make one careful, complete trust in life that everything will turn out okay and an aura of freedom to do whatever the heart is set on.

When we find out about spirituality for the very first time we almost feel the same way.

And it seems very easy in the beginning; we have the knowledge, we understand what all the books and teachers are talking about, so we only have to start practicing it to change our lives around. At that point we are usually very optimistic, full of hope, wishing for the stars. And this is great and beautiful! So how come it is not happening?!

It is because of what all the past bad experiences have done to us or, being more precise, without realizing on conscious level what we let them do to us.

If something important happens we give it an emotional weight which is stored in our subconsciousness and later will reflect on our future reactions, and they will reflect on our lives. If the emotions are positive we can expect positive outcomes, but if they carry negative baggage like fear for example, it seems like a vicious circle; we know more but nothing changes!

At least previous state of ignorance gave us the illusion of being powerless and unable to change anything https://www.spiritual-discoveries.com/. Now, with so much more understanding, it can be much harder to accept that it is us who hold ourselves back from reaching our dreams.

To simplify it, it comes down to our expectations on subconscious level, and most of the expectations come from our childhood.

If you were brought up in a well off family you naturally expect to always have money; if your parents were loving towards themselves this is how you expect your partnered live to be. You do not analyze it, you take it for granted, you expect it and that is what you usually get. Usually, because things can happen along the way as you are growing up, things which will sink deeper into your subconscious then you would wish for, changing your expectations at the same time.

Observe little children playing; the way they presume their roles in a game, how and what they say. Very often it will give you a very good insight how their family lives shape them for their future, already presenting them with challenges to overcome.

As we grasp the idea of spirituality, as we face the fact that it does not work as we hoped for, obviously we become very disappointed and discouraged, even doubting what we already know.

At this stage we are very prone to find the right way to get a quick fix, to get what we want the most now! That is when we will be subscribing to all sorts of different courses, different gurus, anybody or anything which promises to help and solve our problems. And if that does not work next emotion could be anger (remember that anger is born out of unhappiness) with God, parents, other people and of course ourselves.

Hopelessness and frustration here is even bigger as by now we know that it is up to us to change it but at the same time whatever we do does not change anything. You may feel completely lost and wanting to go back to the times of ignorance. But is it possible to go back knowing what you already have? I really do not think so.

I believe the only way out is to go more in, to seek more and more understanding, until you can reach the stage of surrendering, acceptance and peace.

Without recommending anything, I believe meditation is the key. The way and level of depth in your meditating will evolved as you practice, bringing with it all you need to start changing your world to what you want it to be. All that has always been inside you waiting doormat till you are ready to access it and I cannot stress enough how much meditating on regular basis can help bringing the change in you. And of course, change in you will bring change in your world!

The best part is that meditations will remove constant struggle out of your life, replacing it with so much peace and astonishing results to the degree when you will only be able to say: "Wow!", making everything you have been through worth while.
