Finding Meaning

Spirituality is a metamorphic happening!

In this episode, we look at practical spiritual disciplines of behavior that can lead us to finding our authenticity.

This is the second of three podcasts on the simplicity of spirituality

The spiritual journey is simplification of life. It's that simple.

This is my most succinct explanation of spirituality through the lens of Finding Meaning. Enjoy! Thanks for listening.

What is the meaning in Finding Meaning? Take a listen.

As we grow, spiritually, we discover that we don't have to control, we don't have to be the center of the universe. People are the way they are and we are the way we are. No judgment.

Human beings create monsters to identify with. Take a listen thanks!

Life is spiritual and spirituality is a journey. The question is what are we looking for and where are we looking?

Three years ago when I began this podcast, it was named the matrix has you. It is still true today that the matrix has us.

And this episode we're going to talk about the meaning of being a part of the universe. Expanding the idea of finding meaning to larger understandings

We live in a transactional world. We trade salvation for belief and belief for salvation. We trade ethics for power and power for ethics. Take a listen.

There are some ways in which we can tell that we are growing into our authenticity. There are some markers that we can see that allow us to understand. We are uncovering who we truly are.

Just as being kind, being loving, being generous is a part of our authenticity, too, is being a person who seeks and finds pleasure in healthy ways

This is a further exploration of how we truncate our spiritual growth through systems of belief

We are taught that what we believe, is actually what is real. When in fact, it is our experience of love, kindness and forgiveness that are the real.

How does one find their authenticity? By what mechanism is there to find ourselves? What has to happen for us to find our authenticity? What do we do when we start to find it?

We can effect real change in the world. But, only if we find our real and authentic self.

In the false reality, we can see predictable patterns of behavior learned overtime, that are destructive.

We are programmed by this world to seek the path of least resistance. We are programmed to seek the easy. Unfortunately, that is not the way this works.

The concepts of authentic spirituality are easy to grasp. Living authentic spirituality is difficult. Take a listen.

Once we understand that much, if not all of our anxiety is caused by the toxicity of the false reality, we can begin to find some inner peace take a listen, Thanks.

We buy into what other people think about us. We buy into what other people think about the world. We spend most of our life buying other peoples concepts. Take a listen. Thanks.

Here is my attempt to unpack the entirety of finding meaning in 18 minutes. Enjoy.

April 4 is the anniversary of the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr.. In my spiritual journey, I learned from his writings in his speeches to seek understanding rather than judgment. Which is a very deep spiritual attribute. Take a list and thanks.
