Who are you going to call when you individually feel that there is a need to fill the spiritual hole. Commonly we all resort to the religious teachings, but the religious leaders make you so inferior that you lose your standing in the bigger picture, yet logically it is the individual who has to dig in him/herself for the answers. The first one is THE you, and THE you should be calling upon yourself before you follow the thousands of years old orders. Your sink hole has the potential to swallow you whole psychologically, emotionally, physically and even spiritually. If you don’t come to terms with your mortality you will always be the victim of the fear and control related stress and its related illnesses regardless of how religious you are.
Say you are standing on a solid ground and notice a small hole, you look closely just to find out that it is the biggest sink hole you have ever seen, so the ground you thought was solid is not so solid at all. If you live in the city you may call the city even about a pot hole, never mind the sink hole, but the hole I am talking about is a hole of mortality.
The thought came from the Ottawa sink hole, so I have to mention the current events. I heard that they have poured in six hundred cement trucks to fill that sink hole, but the job was not done. The terror news took over so I will talk about the individual’s free will related responsibilities and obviously about the sink hole as well.
The importance of the free will and the responsibilities it brings along to the individual is an important knowledge, so I am going to ask everyone individually to ask yourself that how big is your spiritual sink hole, how much do you fear from it and what have you done to combat that fear causing personal sink hole.
As a human being no mater how much we put into that hole, it still has not been filled, regardless of our advancements we are not out of the woods yet. Sure we have extended the life expectancy and quality but the mortality stands just as solid as it did since for ever.
Being mortal is like standing on a ground where you would like to have solid footing, but regardless of the efforts you just can’t gain that control. The structure you are standing on, is designed that way, so your life has to be planed accordingly, because you can’t just call the city to fill that sink hole. It is too big to fill by some group of people or even by the gurus, religious leader or even the doctors, because those individuals are themselves are standing on the same ground. A doctor is usually called for near death individual but that doctor is standing on the same ground as well, so should we call some one else?
If you are an atheist, you may not be willing to, or would not understand the placebo effects or the benefits of the faith, but if you believe in some thing, you may say a prayers. One can find comfort in believing, yet an other may not, thus this comfort is the difference, when the time comes to cross the line, it may take your fears away regardless of the unknown. I personally would rather believe in that, so I can walk on that ground fearlessly knowing it is not solid. Instead of being perplexed about who should I call to fill my sink hole, I would rather add more happy days in a temporary life by calling upon myself and take personal responsibilities, instead of robing myself of happiness by stressing over the things I have no control over.
Do you give up yourself to your belonging group or religion over your deeply rooted insecurities? If you do when do you think you should own your free will and take responsibilities because you use it everyday.
Understanding your mortality and having a belief system can let you deal with the real fears. Going to Mosque, Church or Temple does not take your fears away unless you really and I mean really believe that you are the cell of God himself. If you stray and choose to live as an egotistic permanent entity, you will pay the price with your happiness.
We have to do the best with our knowledge, if our knowledge is causing us to rob the quality of our life, its an individual’s duty to fix the problem by learning to think about him/herself. Mortality is a fact, you can fear and live your life smaller than it could be, or choose to have faith and I mean real faith which can help you to live fearlessly.
Accepting mortality and working as a cell of God has the potential to secure the insecure individual to the point that he/she can choose the path to work for and live spiritually. The insecurities are related with the sense of belonging to a group of people whom provide knowledge of divisions and preach the humanity is not one thus God is not related with the human individual.
A mortal’s security and dignity is directly and strongly related to the source. Knowing the importance of self and about the connection to the source can fill the spiritual sink hole, which otherwise has the potential to suck the vary life out of your temporary living years, by causing stress related psychological, emotional, physical and spiritual illnesses indiscriminate of religious beliefs. These illnesses not only lead to the social patty crimes in society, they are the very cause of major spiritual crimes like wars related to our prejudice and racism as will.
All the divisions are related with the fear based political sense of belonging to our respective groups, so it is obvious that groups would resist against the unity of the humanity. From conservative political parties to terror organizations they all are fighting for their existence because all the new signals are pointing towards the changes related with the unity of the humanity. For instance internet, space station and governments whom are following and enforcing the equal human rights as the law.
The terror attack on the gay night club and events like that can only be prevented by the educating the young adults. If the individual has self identity and connection directly to God or the source he/she will know and respect the knowledge of equal human rights. For instance if you are black and living in a white majority country or if you are Muslim living in Christian dominated society or if you are a gay and live in straight population, you all are protected by one law and that law is the equal human rights, so you all can’t discriminate against each other. If you feel you do, then you have to make some logical sense by thinking.
Whether its racist, prejudice based or religious discriminating knowledge they all are given to our new generations freely from all sides, it is hard for a juvenile mind to strain out the politics of the sense of belonging to a group thus it is hard to understand that it is against the equal human rights. It is even hard for the grown ups to take the individual’s responsibility to see through and judge according to today’s law and order.
A belief system is and should be pure of belonging group’s politics, it should be one hundred percent spiritual and if you look at the spirituality it is all about the whole humanity. Even life after death is a spiritual world, you just can’t get in there unless you live a good life in your living years. Meaning if you have to use your free will to do good deeds in your living years, then the question arises, what are the good deeds? All the good deeds are related with helping the humanity practically. You can worship and bow down all you want but the real deeds are the help to the humanity and yes it is the living humanity.
Is it God’s will? Or human’s free will? It is time to ask this difficult question of faith. I personally don’t give credit or blame God or the Devil but I see our whole religious world uses this politics and hide their spiritual sins behind those entities in the broad day light yet still everyone follows them.
The free will, we all use it everyday and all the time, we even pray to God at will and no one can deny that. Logically no parent should discipline their children or enforce religious rules, if God is the one doing everything. All religious people should be actually more accepting to all the good, bad and ugly of the human sufferings as God’s will so they can spiritually benefit from believing in God. Now look around the world right, left, front back, up and down now in the present and in the history, in every society we are and have been killing each other at will not because it is or was God’s will.
If the leaf on the tree can’t move without the God’s order then why do we kill each other? I would not blame God or the Devil I would own it as my politics of the belonging group. There has not been is or ever will be a spiritual killing not even the sacrifice killings, it has always been, is and always will be human politics of sense of belonging hiding behind the name of God or the Devil.
Doing any good deed out of discipline and conformity is one thing, but doing as a duty and reciprocation is an other. One is done out of fear and greed and the other is done out of love of God and humanity. You can worship or you can practically be useful to humanity thus God. If practically you are robing and hurting others but praying, fasting and going for the pilgrimage, you are doing all those religious things out of conformity. If you are just helping out of sense of responsibility and duty you are reciprocating. Reciprocation is for the humanity thus it is a spiritual thing and is done out of love of God and I dare say humanity.
First as an individual we should ask ourselves, why do we think that we are right, our ancestors were right and others have been and are wrong? It is all about the fundamentals of education, if the education we have received is flawed and we don’t question, it is because of the distorted sense of belonging to our groups. We are labeled as traders by the belonging groups if we start to think out side the box, thus everyone fears to stray to belong to the whole humanity. If everyone of us is not relating to the humanity as a whole, as an individual, we are not playing with the full deck of cards which God had meant for us to do. The reason why each and everyone of us has the ability to use free will is to be able to play our cards freely. If you are not playing your cards freely you are doing disservice, not only to yourself but to the humanity and God as well.
Taking responsibility of our actions is new duty and sometimes it can call for standing up against your own belonging groups, if it is called upon to you, choose equal human rights for all, over the sense of belonging to your belonging groups because it is the time for all human beings to stand together as a humanity to advance further in the future. Time is calling for the unity of the world, if you stand aside you can be left behind, which is happening right now in all over the world. People are divided over the belief systems and governing systems and the views of general populations have been becoming moderate and the extremists are trying to do their thing to be relevant yet the world is changing right before their eyes.
All the justice systems of the world are based on the concept of free will, interestingly in the religious societies laws are much harsher than others, yet they have been told to religiously believe even the leaf on the tree can’t move without the God’s will. If so then why harsh punishments for the individual. Religious contradictions are all over the world, even the Christianity teaches to give the other cheek, if someone slaps you. All religious wars are fought with such passion that there is no sense of humanity. Corporal punishment for conformation works directly against the belief that nothing can move without the God will.
There were spiritual crimes committed against the aboriginal children in the name of God after the occupation. Using God for the political purposes is not new human empires have used God to hide their criminal intensions to control the uneducated mass of individuals. Yet God has provided free oxygen to keep human individual alive so God can express himself physically. God’s will is human’s will and human’s will is God’s will in spirituality but when it comes to the human politics of greed, insecurity, control and power everything changes. As I said before if you try to live temporarily you would be more spiritual but when you want to think you will live forever your life choices change. It is not one or the other it is all about the balance because as an individual we all have different paths so it is our responsibility to use free will wisely yet with the personal justice system.
