Why should one explore spirituality?
Before we were sent to this planet, a life force was instilled within us that gives us the identity that “we are alive.” This life force is called the spirit. The journey of understanding the true characteristics and the essence of this spirit is known as spirituality.
If we are breathing and we claim that spirituality is “not my cup of tea”, then I would want to ask everyone to kindly reflect and tell you that you are, in essence, a spirit! If a life force has been placed within you, then you might as well become aware of it and explore its attributes. This exploration will be in your favor! Because by knowing what you already have, you can learn how to use it to your advantage.
For instance, imagine a farmer working in the fields. And if someone asks him, “Do you believe in being a farmer?” If he answers this question as “No,” what would you say? You would say to that farmer, “You are a farmer and you should gain more information about this so that you can use ‘being a farmer’ in your favor!” How can he use this information in his favor? Knowing that he is a farmer, he can focus on improving his farming techniques, resulting in an increase in his income, which will bring happiness to his family and enhance his overall life.
In the same way, spirituality is about discovering who we truly are and understanding the characteristics we have been born with! This journey of deep recognition is what we call spirituality.
We don’t have a choice whether or not to be spiritual. The only choice we have is whether we are aware of being spiritual or not!
