Spirituality And Knowledge

It's common to imbibe in all sorts of knowledge We have been led to believe that information is power Or education is the key to success Our education was curtailed towards filling us with certain knowledge With assumptions that we are born empty of knowledge Humanity has made extensive progress in the accumulation of new knowledge And these variants of knowledge have led to big progress in technology Simplifying life and bring comfort and wealth to some But it's also true that mankind is ever sinking into the world of uncertainty Every progress we make has a big price attached to it The latest nuclear weapon technology can wipe away the whole planet Or cause unimaginable destruction It's imperative that we re-define knowledge and progress And factor in spiritual knowledge Spirituality offers us a pedestal to sit on Spiritual knowledge is not based on time and space It's the substance of existence It's not based on temporal changes in our perceptions And the fluctuations of thoughts and emotions It's not dependent on the intelligence quotient (IQ) Or any modalities of privilege It's not based on acquired identities, achievements, expectations and attachments Spiritual knowledge is not based on education and attainment of certain skills It's based on the illumination of the fibre of existence You have to allow yourself to be submerged in Silence or Nothingness And exist at the dimensionless existence Spiritual knowledge offers us hope, faith and Love The path of Light (God)illuminated In the place of uncertainty and fear Spiritual knowledge gives us the platform to dress ourselves with hope, faith and Love In the place of mankind's inherent impulse to destroy one another Spiritual knowledge offers us unconditional Love - the everlasting existence It's imperative we rethink our impulse to dismiss Silence And learn to accept our place in the field of nothingness It's here where we will learn true knowledge And drink from the river of life We will learn to let go of all our acquired knowledge And allow the spirit to cleanse and rejuvenate us We will learn to look not with our eyes but with our hearts We will learn that selfishness is never a solution And that wickedness is foolishness We will learn to eat from the tree of life The fruits of the spirit will be our nourishment Humility, peace, gentleness, kindness and Love will be our daily habits We will learn that true Love last forever We will become part of the eternal awareness And be sons and daughters of God We will be in Love with Love We will be the Love God is Love ©
