Spiritual development and spiritual transcendence tools and resources

... once we realize that there is something beyond the physical ‘material world’, we begin to wonder what else exists —then our spiritual awakening begins ...

Spiritual Transcendence is our ultimate goal ~~ to transcend our limitations of mind and ego and to become one with Spirit, to walk between the worlds, to be a being of light, to manifest any desire. To experience the rapture of who we are, the highest manifestation of who we truly are.

Our ultimate destiny ......... Spiritual Transcendence

At the moment of birth, a soul moves from the spiritual etheric realm into the physical manifest universe ~

This is one of the most mysterious aspects of life. For many years, I have spent long hours wondering why if existence is peaceful, loving and joyous in the spiritual realm ~ what would be the reason(s) so compelling as to make a soul choose to incarnate in the physical world, which we all know is filled with so much pain and trauma, wars, famine and disease. As all of these things that are not present in the spiritual realm.

One of the ideas presented to us to answer this is the idea that we are born and incarnate to experience life and possibly learn spiritual and life lessons that help us as individual souls to grow. With this model we can go in a positive or negative direction on our karmic wheel, dependent entirely on the actions we take and decisions that we make. We have an opportunity to ascend to higher and higher levels of awareness and enlightenment until we’ve learned and experienced everything we need to know to become spiritual beings, at one with God, in an eternity of bliss ... hence spiritual transcendence.

Something has kept nudging at me that there is something else to it , something more .... but what?

People who have had NDE’s (near death experience) have an experience of seeing a white light which they are inexplicably drawn to, as they enter this light they go down a tunnel, and at the end of the tunnel they find themselves ‘on the other side’. All who have had this experience (and lived to tell about it) have come back from that experience sharing a few commonalities and providing great insight to those of us who have not had an NDE:

The element of time seems to be non-existent, while visiting the other side, .... individuals had no sense of time.

A persons particular religion was not important.

What was important was your spirituality, your personal relationship with God. The manner in which one conducts him/herself and particularly how one “cleans up their own messes”, how one picks up and moves beyond circumstances, what one creates for themselves and for others, ...... this is what is important.

1. Each person is born with a life purpose, that we are meant to fulfill in this lifetime ~ It is up to us individually to discover and pursue that purpose.

2. The importance of service to others in this life is vastly important.

3. Upon returning from visiting ‘the other side’ these individuals are now in the moment of NOW, they experience life now with no fear of death, focusing to really enjoy each day, each moment of each day.

In respect to this, recently I read a book by Dannion Brinkley: ‘Saved by the light’. The book is an account of his 2 NDE experiences, in which he elaborated in beautiful detail what he experienced. Reading this made me think deeply about the nature of spiritual enlightenment and spiritual transcendence.

During his visit to ‘the other side’ he encountered light beings, there was one light being in particular that illuminated brighter than the others. This light being telepathically communicated and gave information to Dannion. As any of us would, Dannion had a few questions !! The light being answered some of his questions! Apparently they did not feel compelled to answer all of the questions Dannion put forth.

Dannion wanted to know if all "spirits" incarnate. The light being told him that not all spirits incarnate. Incarnating into the physical world takes alot of courage, and those that did choose to incarnate were held in the highest esteem by the other spirits.

The light being also told Dannion that what we do here in the physical realm not only affects us in this dimension but it also directly affects the realm of these spirit beings, and what we do here is VERY important.

The light being also shared with Dannion that when spirit beings incarnate, they become co-creators with God.

WOW! This really got my juices flowing ~~

A few years ago I was having a discussion with someone on the topic of what our ultimate destiny could possibly be ~ what spiritual transcendence really meant. During the conversation I had an instant intuitive epiphany revealing to me that the goal for our incarnations into life was yes indeed to learn lessons, but it had a much farther reach than that.

These lessons would bring us to a place where we understand what manifestation really is all about, and in full relationship with the Divine, we will learn to be creators to our fullest potential; understanding the magnitude of what we can create and how we can create it. Virtually becoming co-creators with God, in having a vision of what we desire to create, and creating it. Aha, the clues for spiritual transcendence are in all that we do, all that we learn.

If we use the model of incarnating over and over until we get it right, it may take thousands of lifetimes to achieve that kind of knowledge and affinity to truly create ..... or maybe we just have to change our belief system, and we will advance by quantum leaps!

Putting together my intuited vision that our ultimate destiny is to become co-creators, to be ONE WITH GOD, in his likeness to our fullest potential, along with the information given to Dannion; Intuition rained on me filling me with a vision of how it all fits together.Heres how I see it, how I feel it.

Creation is manifestation.

Creation of something seems to require the element of time ~ God created the universe in 6 days ..... therefore; the element of time is necessary for creation, for manifestation of anything, even for God.

For those things that seem to manifest instantaneously ...let's remember that time is not linear, time can bend on itself creating an effect of no time, so however time is manipulated, manifestation is effected.

There is alot to learn about manifestation, which is why we are here to learn.

Our physical reality exists in a dimension of time. However, the dimension of the spirit beings seems to be different, with no sense of time.Manifestation of something - anything also requires chemical elements. All things are made of a combination of chemical elements.

So....... In combination with physical tangible elements and the element of time something can be created.

Perhaps without the element of time, creation of something cannot happen.

Time (however brief) would therefore be necessary to the creation or manifestation of anything.

This brings me to the conclusion that we who have chosen to incarnate in the physical realm, do so for the precise reason to learn to create to our highest potential within the realm of time, in that what we create here affects the spiritual realm. ......... So upon departure of the spiritual realm, we leave with a purpose designed to create from an individual personal vibration, the collective vibration and effecting the vibration on the spiritual dimension as well. As we increase these vibrations, the vibrations of the spiritual dimension increases and becomes higher; in accord with the Divine ~ until we are in perfect harmonic resonance with that which we seek ~~ the Divine.

On the converse, if we do not remember our purpose once we get here and chase a life of folly, the vibration decreases, or at best remains static.... perhaps for all dimensions. That's alot of responsibility we possibly come here with. Spiritual Transcendence now takes on a whole new light.

Therefore our incarnation is of the utmost importance, and effects all beings ... and our relationship to the Divine!

The collective vibration is paramount. What if our collective vibrations; affecting the vibrations of all planes of existence -- have the power to create bridges or portals into yet higher and higher dimensions -- where more and more magnificence is experienced ..... realms of heaven? With this model, you can see how and why what we do here, the energy we create could affect the realm of the ‘light beings’ that Dannion encountered, and why our incarnation is so important to everything.

The reason the ‘light beings’ must see us as so brave, is because we come here knowing what we are going to encounter, but have no tangible memory of what we’re doing when we get here!! Putting the whole free will thing to a test where everyone --- all beings on all realms are affected. All we are given is clues, little clues given to different individuals that WE have to put together and realize the significance of. Here is where it is really important to remember and realize the significance of the statement ‘we are spiritual beings having a physical experience, not physical beings trying to have a spiritual experience’.

If ..... we have to enter into the dimension of time where the physical realm exists in order to create, we suddenly have all kinds of physical distractions. Unfortunately, when we incarnate we don’t have conscious memory of exactly where we came from or why we are here. But we all have a sense of something bigger, beyond, something always tugging at us.

In the dimension of the physical, the Divine gave us free will. FREE WILL to do what we CHOOSE. Spiritual Transcendence and enlightenment doesn't just happen, we have to choose to take that path.

We have to choose to follow that sense of knowing something bigger, beyond this. In following that sense we will be led to the search that begins by looking inward. By looking inward, we come to a place where we see and feel that which we thought was outside of us. By looking inward we feel our connection to the Divine and to all, we discover our personal purpose, and our collective purpose.

This is where the concept of being alone and loneliness vanishes. This is why and how we are all one, what effects one effects another, and effects the whole. Everything effects everything.

We choose to incarnate to a place where we will have no memory from which we came, and no memory of our purpose. What a kunundrum!

In doing this each of us are challenged to look beyond the physical distractions and temptations where we will have to choose to look to that sense calling to us where we begin to find some answers. Perhaps this is where the old familiar saying that ‘this is all an illusion’ comes in.

The illusion is that the things that distract us and tempt us have some kind of importance, that what we see is all there is. Possessions, image and power are not things we can take with us when we leave. What we take with us when we leave is the vibration that we have created. What we have done, how we have helped; this creates our vibration, the vibration of our being.

We can begin to change the vibration of our being at any moment, it is a choice. Every little change, every action, every thought projected has an aggregate effect on the whole, in this dimension and beyond. This is where the power is in coming together to raise our consciousness, and embrace our destiny.

Start following that sense tugging at you, you will see and experience things you’ve always been longing for; a sense of who you are and a sense of self love, a feeling of connection, abundance, a knowing of a higher purpose, peace, gratitude, eternity. Choose to get to know yourself, your real self, choose enlightenment, choose to reach for spiritual transcendence.

May the Divine fill you everyday with purpose and insight to manifest magnificence ... We incarnated for this very purpose.
