CAREFULLY SET YOUR SPIRITUAL COURSE

“Your spiritual destiny is conditioned only by your spiritual longings and purposes.” [UB 156:5.9]

Thought Adjuster: “It is important to respect each other’s spiritual path, as each spiritual traveler, by the nature of his unique personality and propensities, will naturally be led to engage in a unique life journey as well. Just as your fingerprints provide a reliable identifier of your physical persona, your character is another set of prints of finer vibrations that make you who you are—unlike anyone else in the vast creation.

Based on these undeniable facts, why is it so hard for human beings to make allowances for others’ spiritual paths? Your planet exhibits abundant diversity. You are born in different places; you are the offspring of different generations; you are exposed to different beliefs and philosophical systems, etc. All these facts of life add even more to the uniqueness of your eternal destiny.

Just as the Father allows you to evolve at your own pace, never putting undue pressure on you, don’t you think you should treat others with the same compassionate and loving attitude? Isn’t patience an essential prerequisite for love?

What matters is that you carefully set your spiritual trajectory, leaving room for many course adjustments along the way. When you start on your spiritual journey, you truly have no clue where it will ultimately take you. You set out, trusting that the Father has a blueprint for your life, a perfect plan that takes into consideration your abilities and potential. This is why the daily practice of turning within to consult your Divine Guide is tremendously beneficial to your progress in the right direction.

You are meant to live beyond physical death. Doesn’t it make sense then to set your views beyond the scope of material life? If a runner only plans to run a mile, he will stop upon reaching what he has set as his final destination and will not get to discover what lies beyond it. Do not set short-sighted objectives, as they will greatly limit the scope of your experience.”
“Be clear in the setting of your spiritual ambitions. Set your views according to your spiritual longings and what you identify at this time of your existence as being your purpose. Your longings have a magnetic power of attraction and as you progress, your heart will develop new longings that will keep propelling you forward. This could be compared to an eternal treasure hunt where clues and red flags are carefully placed along your way in order to guide you from one life station to the next, taking into account the many variables of your free will decisions.

“Wherever you may find yourself along your spiritual journey, the wisest initiative you can take is to stop and consult daily with your Inner Guide to regroup if you strayed from your spiritual destiny. Catch your spiritual breath, strengthen yourself by ingesting adequate spiritual nutrients, freely share them with your trail companions in need of sustenance, and keep going with a soul filled to the brim with joyous anticipation.”
