What is the purpose of meditation?
What is the purpose of a spiritual
practice?
The purpose of these activities is
to know and experience that we are all beings of light - that we are all one.
This is also called soul realization. The purpose of soul realization is to
manifest it in this world through our thoughts, words & deeds.
What are the stages of this
journey towards soul realization?
According to Master Choa Kok
Sui there are different stages of soul realization.
1.
The 1st stage requires
the intellectual understanding that you are
The Soul. You are a spiritual being of divine intelligence, divine love &
divine power. You are not the
physical body; you are not your thoughts or your emotions! You are so much more
than this.
2. In the
2nd stage you
experience one’s self as the soul. It is during meditation that the experience of being
more than the body, thoughts & emotions may be felt. The body, thoughts & feelings are replaced by the feeling of light .
With further development
& a sustained spiritual practice the practitioner may experience the
realization of the nature of the soul. Master Choa Kok Sui describes this as
the recognition that we are all beings of light & this light radiates in all
directions throughout the physical & inner universe.
4.
The 3rd stage in soul
realization is the experience of the incarnated soul (this is you) having union
with the higher soul. The incarnated soul (you) & the higher soul are one.
The practitioner also experiences oneness with all. This stage is when the
process of arhatship starts.
