    The Simple Path to Spiritual Awakening

    Tuesday, April 10, 2012, 11:36 PM [General]

    "The path
    to spiritual awakening
    really does not have to be
    complicated.

    You simply
    with an open mind
    find the practices
    that you experience
    a greater awakening
    into bliss
    and you practice them.

    You should try everything;
    from breathing exercises,
    to mantra, to chanting
    to various methods of meditation
    and everything in between.

    And when you find practices
    that help awaken
    the bliss that is beyond
    all beliefs and ideas
    then you follow those practices.

    You give yourself
    wholeheartedly
    to them.

    Perhaps at first
    you do not feel bliss,
    perhaps at first it is difficult,
    it is challenging,
    it is uncomfortable.

    But somewhere in sticking with it,
    you might recognize
    something profound happening,
    something very subtle
    awakening inside you
    that attracts you
    and that attraction
    will lead you to bliss.

    And once you find ways
    to awaken the bliss
    you are home free.

    Then the door is open
    to your awakening.

    Whether you find it
    in repeating the name of a Guru,
    repeating a mantra,
    breathing a certain way,
    practicing a certain
    meditation technique,

    no matter what it is
    if it awakens the bliss
    then all the teachings
    will not matter.

    All of the different philosophies
    and spiritual debates
    will become obsolete.

    All of your problems and worries
    will no longer affect you
    in the same way.

    Because you have found
    a method to awaken the bliss
    and that bliss transcends everything.

    And simply by being in that bliss,
    everything gets done,
    everything gets taken care of.
    It nurtures you and loves you
    like no person ever can.

    Just by giving your full attention to bliss,
    or to the practice that awakens the bliss,
    you are fulfilled.

    But don't give it halfway.

    Don't give your attention
    a back door
    to slip away
    back into doubts
    and intellectual debate.

    Rather,
    give yourself to the practice
    until there is nothing
    left to give.
    Until even the practice goes.
    Even the bliss may go.

    And then there is only what is.
    The simplicity of the moment.

    And that is even more
    delightful than the bliss.

    Blessings,


    Kip"
