Some thoughts out of the experience of mystical reality:
The human spirit is just about being human. But the human soul is something else. It is part of a Reality that is bigger than any name humans or their religions can give it, including names like God, Holy ghost, Shabd, Baraka or Consciousness, for instance. This Reality has been experienced by some humans throughout history. The phenomena is now being seriously accepted and studied by scholars, academicians and scientists around the world.
The human spirit is just about human culture, morality and ethics. But the experience of Reality is that there are bigger things afoot than mere humanity. Are humans and what they call the human spirit as important in the scheme of existence as humans think they are?
Reblog these posts as much as you like. No copyright is imposed. About the author: Keith is a "pratyeka" mystic according to Buddhism because his Mystical Experiences of Reality (MER) were spontaneous. (He is not a Buddhist or member of any religion). He had MERs every year from the age of 15 to 35 years of age. Pratyeka mystics don't teach, preach, evangelise, or prosletise what they know. However, when Keith recognises those who are chosen and driven to seek Ultimate Reality he does reach out to them, cautiously, to help them stop floundering and recognise themselves, know what is happening to them. Then his inclination is to remove himself unless called upon. All Is Well.
