Growing into freedom

[Guest guest]

Mankind on earth is suffering from starvation, from illnesses, from

pain, separation, lack of love and tenderness, fear, problems and

more. Hence for many if not most of the present population, life on

earth is little or no pleasure at all. Mainly because there is a

continuous lack of love within human relationship between most of us.

People need decades to get free of their school influence and parents

home, to start being " mature " and start earning their own life - and

start learning about life. Once they have started to really learn,

most of us are in an age when they already start to think about

death, loosing their body and they start to fear the loss of life,

loss of property, loss of their friends, family members and so on.

 

By the time most of us realize, that there is something to learn

beyond intellectual knowledge and industrial progress, by the time we

acknowledge that we may have done wrong to others, caused pain to

others and that we have eventually accumulated a huge amount of karma

and may need a substantial change within ourselves, in our attitude

toward others, toward the entire creation and ourselves as well. By

that time we start realize that we may need to do some very intense

healing to all those who have suffered a more or less serious damage

when having experienced an encounter with our ego - however by that

time, it may already be too late to do whatever is necessary to heal,

to repair and to learn - at least in the present incarnation. Attain

freedom of any karma, freedom of any attachment, freedom and peace

within and in our outside life is a serious and intense job, taking

ten thousands of hours of conscious life, of conscious efforts, self-

control, changes, experimenting, learning, applying all we have

learned and practicing to get used to a real divine behavior.

 

How many ten thousand hours did you waste at school learning what you

have learned dozen times before - the abc, math, geography, history,

foreign languages, ... but how much survives from all that. How many

ten thousand hours are we spending playing tennis, football, watching

TV, doing nothing or just day dreaming ?? If you have no precise

idea, I recommend you warmly to take a calculator and find out how

many days or years for example 50000 hours are. This is a reasonable

time you may need for spiritual progress if you live consciously and

keep going steadily on your spiritual path - without postponing

to " later " what needs to be done today, NOW. whatever you do NOW -

immediately - is done. You may then get NOW the feedback on any

necessary improvement, or you may get NOW the improved situation in

your life that you always have dreamed of. If you continue to do

immediately - NOW - what needs to be done, it finally will become a

powerful habit facilitating your entire life as well as your

spiritual progress. And it will become a driving inspiring force for

all others surrounding you or near you in your heart.
