The World of True Spiritual Acceptance pt. 2


The World of True Spiritual Acceptance pt. 2


Understanding Acceptance of all:  This concept of pure acceptance of all seems impossible to comprehend, how is one supposed to incorporate this concept in everyday life the way it is? In actual fact you’re not, what one needs to do is rid oneself of taught influences that have locked us into certain ways of thinking through meditation, yoga & so forth as mentioned in pt. 1.  In actual fact if we were practicing in these techniques properly acceptance should come naturally but our train of thought & present reality can dictates to us otherwise.

Before I go on, because this next part is quite controversial & complex I would advise one to read acceptance pt. 1 first before carrying on.

This concept is nothing different to any other concept or practice except it focuses on acceptance first & foremost & as one practices in their chosen mind release like meditation one should always focus on acceptance & actually feel that they accept all for what it is. At first you won’t feel like accepting all because of our past taught beliefs which we are all brought up believing but as one goes on the veils of non-acceptance slowly come down around you, this is true freedom.

Non-acceptance is & has always been a part of our social structure in one way or another like with churches & there religions being unaccepting of other beliefs or my culture is right over all others because of its moral & ethical structure. Being brought up with this sort of influential ideology we have become non-accepting & therefore conflictive but if one took on the reverse affect true harmony would prevail over all who take on such concepts as acceptance of all.  If you think about it how truly accepting are you? Any non-acceptance leads to conflict in one way or another so why do we persist?

Chosen Path v Acceptance:  This is where it gets sticky & tricky especially when one isn’t accepting of most things. You get to a point that you’re not just accepting your own path but everyone else’s no matter what they go through. What one needs to be aware of here is it’s also OK to be non-accepting as well. Ask yourself how does one become all accepting of a maniac like Hitler for instance, does it make everything that Hitler did alright? Yes & no, why? Yes because it was he’s chosen path & it was he’s victims chosen path as well however one can spiritually come to totally accept this but humanly no because it’s also alright not to accept this. 

To humanly accept all no matter how cruel or grotesque isn’t going to happen unless one takes on the spiritual aspect as well but even then it’s still OK to be non-accepting. This is the trick, most other spiritual concepts teach oneness but this concept of accepting of all including non-accepting is duality not oneness as we have the inner all accepting spiritual self & the outer human self as well which can be balanced by the concept it’s also Ok to be non-accepting as well. What is happening here is the inner self once opened up teaches the human self to be more accepting & at peace with one’s entire environment.

A Paradox of Selves: The paradox here with the human self is the inner self is accepting of all including non-accepting but what this does to the humans self  is cause conflict because non-accepting is conflict, so how does the human self-become spiritually aware in the first place when they are in conflict?  This is another part of this concept that goes against other taught spiritual concepts & ideologies, you also accept conflicts as well just like you would your own chosen path but if one isn’t comfortable with one’s chosen path or conflicts in life accepting them & then changing them from within to your comfortable  is acceptable. One must remember, with this concept everything is acceptable even to the point in being non-accepting over something that makes you feel uncomfortable.

Am I personally/humanly comfortable with people like Hitler? No of course not but I am also not in conflict with this kind of person either as I accept all for what it is a path that obviously needed to be trod by many, this is pure spiritual awareness & understanding, I accept my human self is going to be uncomfortable & non-accepting of this but I’m not going to stay in conflict either because of my inner spiritual awareness of my totality of accepting of all for what it is, pure spiritual. What I mean by this is everything is of the spiritual not just of my inner self or of some other realm or reality but everything & this is why it’s all so acceptable to me.

We have come here to experience the things we are experiencing, to be totally non-accepting of this is only going to lead to more conflict & misery but when one starts to accept this changes start to occur for the better.  The more non-accepting we become the more we are manifesting conflict & misery because non-accepting is conflictive within itself, of course it’s going to manifest more conflicts & misery. 

Acceptance isn’t easy & if one practiced in certain practices like yoga & meditation properly acceptance comes with those practices automatically as one goes on but in our hectic chaotic life style this isn’t easy as we have so many influences around us that hinder our spiritual growth. By consciously & subconsciously incorporating pure acceptance of all within these other practices life steadily becomes less & less conflictive & more harmoniously accepting, acceptance of all is the very key to peace & tranquillity in one’s life.
