Making changes - why do we need to make changes?
As humans we have been evolving and changing over millennea. It has been a slow process until recent times when the whole pace of our world has quickened and I believe that we are at a point in our evolution where we can make a great leap forward. We can transcend our previous patterns and make unparalleled growth, if we are willing to embrace and allow our spiritual development to lead the way. In the past we have always lived in closed societies where we were expected to follow the prevailing social code and also to adopt the spirituality of our ancestors. In the west, we are now given an opportunity to put this aside and see the broader picture. We can research into our spiritual reality, we can study world religions, new age philosophy, and gain many new insights about ourselves and our world. With television and world travel, the global picture has become known to us. We are encouraged to embrace the world to see the many levels of creation and the diversity of it.
The starting point for change
Our starting point for change lies with our spirituality, for the core of our being is our soul. Change, to be effective and long lasting, needs to come from our deepest aspect. When we start to explore the spiritual dimension, it is as though we put on a new pair of spectacles. We start to see the world in a new light. If you have previously lived as if you were separate from the world, then this will change and you will find that everything is linked together. You do not and cannot exist without the world which supports and feeds you. These realisations come from your soul. It is easy to think that we have power over this world but this is a mistake, as we are dependent on it.
To make changes, we need to make them on every level - spiritual, mental, emotional and physical. All change needs persistent effort until the new is established. From the spiritual perspective, we may begin to see that a change is needed. This change will need to be assimilated into our physical reality. Our physical reality means the way we think, the way we feel, and the way we put things into practice.
To make change also requires persistent effort on your part. We are by nature, creatures of habit and if you wish to overcome your habitual patterns you need to work hard.
