The World of True Spiritual
Acceptance
What is the most important significant attributing factor to true spiritual awareness? Is it positive thinking, is it mediating whenever possible, it might be even separation from all other vibrations/people in becoming a recluse. So which one is it or is it all the above? None, it’s acceptance of all for what it is not what we want it to be, all the above just gives us what we want it to be not what it is, on the other hand acceptance of all literally gives us all as all is accepted, it becomes everything we want even the things we thought we didn’t want or desire as it all becomes spiritually accepted!!
Only in acceptance of all can we really attain true
spiritual awareness even to the extent of not accepting. First of all let’s go
back to positive thinking, does it pertain to accepting of all? No because it’s
in opposition of the negatives. What about mediating, what’s it’s in opposition
too? Nothing but it doesn’t refer to acceptance either unless one meditates on
acceptance.
Acceptance of all is ridding oneself of all prejudices
towards all of mankind & the environment we live in including ourselves
which also includes accepting not accepting. So what we have here now is
accepting to not accept as well, what this is saying you don’t have to accept
anything in other words as it just is the way it is.
There is an obvious problem in this concept of accepting
& non-accepting as one can do as one pleases obviously as it’s all accepted
like I don’t accept being ruled & judged by other so when I rebel against
this my action would also have to be accepted!! No not at all as acceptance of
all can only be attained through spiritual awareness; any other way would
result in what I previously discussed in this paragraph. A true spiritually
aware person would accept that they are ruled in the first place so wouldn’t
have a need to retaliate & this is where true acceptance gives one peace
within oneself.
I thought I would put some helpful links at the end of each
topic.
Calming the Ego
It is awfully hard for the ego outer self to attain this kind of acceptance & this is why only truly spiritually aware people are able to do this, calm the ego first & acceptance of all comes much easier so how does one do this? Through various practice like first mentioned, positive thinking, mediating, becoming a recluse or even Taoism, Yoga, religion & so forth, all these will help with calming the ego. One thing to remember, never try to rid oneself of the ego as this pertains to conflict, all practices should be done while one is accepting & it’s this accepting, not of all however as yet, that gives you the final acceptance of all for if one didn’t practice acceptance while calming the ego one wouldn’t be truly accepting of all in the end you would just be practiced in whatever you were practicing in.
Before I go on the problem with most spiritually aware
people is they have been trained to rid oneself of the ego, one must NOT rid
oneself of anything especially the ego no matter how over inflated it is. To
have a wanting or desire to rid oneself of anything represents conflicts & conflicts
of any sort distorts the true understanding & effects of true acceptance.
It is also important that one must never try to go fully
into accepting without calming the ego first as well, it must be done while you
are calming the ego because as explained earlier it gives you permission then
to do as one likes if the ego is still fully present. This sounds awfully complicated in while
calming the ego one must also practice in acceptance as well but it’s not. The trick is before one calms the ego one
must accept acceptance like accepting the ego for what it is at that moment
even if it’s highly egotistical. The problem here is so many have been trained
to believe in different concepts which hinder such understanding at times, one
must at first before taking on a different spiritual belief or concept is drop
all others before them, this however can be hard for the main reason the ego
won’t let go of other taught concepts & beliefs but it must be done before
one proceeds into any other new ideology.
Now that we have accepted accepting all including our own
egos what then? Practice this until one is accepting of all it really is that
simple & don’t worry about the ego it will just fade away as if it never
was.
Life Trauma’s
& Acceptance
When one has trauma’s to deal with the trauma’s themselves
can make it harder to practice in true acceptance but only if one isn’t
accepting of the said trauma, remember the acceptance of all is the key here to
attaining true acceptance, traumas could delay progress but as one becomes more
accepting the said trauma seems to just fade away, this of course is only
relevant with mental traumas as physical traumas have their own dilemma’s
especially if they are painful &/or restrictive or do they?
Think about this for a moment!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...what drives
our traumas & dilemma’s? It’s the ego & yes I did say the ego because
the ego just isn’t of being egotistically inflated but also inflated as it is
still of the ego. Our persona is driven by the ego either in an inflated way,
deflated way or somewhere in between, the persona is you a traumatised person, once
one calms down the ego while practicing in acceptance the persona reacts by
calming down as well which deflates the effects of all mental & physical
traumas, they are still their but they are also calmed down right with the ego.
Traumas & dilemmas can make the said person more aware
than someone who hasn’t gone through traumas because it takes a lot more
acceptance to accept one’s traumas in the first place so having
traumas of some type or another can be quite beneficial
especially when one becomes truly accepting of all, it becomes quite apparent.
Even while one is becoming accepting of all one will get the feeling & knowing of detachments not just of the things we desire but of the things we have been chasing or fighting with & all these things we thought we needed or fighting with will fade away as we become more understanding in their value, as we grow in acceptance we realise we no longer need that sort of attachment to for fill our lives & eventually realise that we never really did.
The main principle here is to accept all for what it is
fundamentally first & then as we grow in acceptance we will see them for
what they truly are a fabricated illusion brought on by many things like
materialism, radicalism in any ideology, desire, ego & so forth. Most of
what has been mentioned are at times forced upon us in many ways which impel us
to take on different ideologies to what we would truly spiritually like. By
accepting all for what it is even what was previously mentioned at first one
can changed the effects & values that they have on our lives, as you
progress in acceptance of all our values change & so do the effects of
these external influences.
Now one might think we are changing things here so were not
actually being accepting of all after all!!
As one progresses into accepting our values just change automatically,
you don’t have to try or want a desired change it will happen if by magic just
like how we changed in accepting materialistic consumerism for instance,
materialism was brought upon us through the necessity for others to grow rich,
this was brought upon us gradually & as time went by we more & more
took on this materialistic consumerist value, we changed our values if by magic.
Change is always inevitable if we change them or someone else does but by
taking on the concept of accepting all we are actually taking the initiative in
what values we want to take on not what is forced upon us by others.
The obvious question here is if we are accepting, like with
materialistic consumerism, how would accepting of all change materialistic
consumerism? By accepting of more than just materialism our values are more
spread out across the board & the more accepting we become the more open
& accepting we become to many values not just to one or two values like
materialism & the ego. Our values towards materialism only changes it
doesn’t dissipate all together, as I said before if we go out to rid ourselves
of such things we are only causing more conflict but by accepting all not just
materialism we are just literally only watering down the value we put upon
materialism not ridding ourselves of it completely & this is where the
concept of accepting of all is passive, it’s non-conflictive.
What is so funny here is I have personally been accepting in
not accepting to change my values from taught values to my spiritual
values because I was also accepting of this as well, in other words I accepted
all including the non-acceptable, not an easy thing to do & keep sane as a
spiritually aware person in these times as there are so many taught spiritual
concepts telling us to rid ourselves of such so called negative influences like
the ego & materialism.
True accepting of who & what we are & of our whole
environment is important for true acceptance to take place, if we can’t be
accepting even in one thing true whole spiritual acceptance will never be
obtained but in saying this of course you might decide to only go half way
through the accepting process which is quite acceptable as it’s always left up
to the individual how far they really need to go to find what they are looking
for, any further than this is only a waist & becomes an egotistical desire
which leads you right back to where you came from in the first place so my
advice is don’t go any further than one’s needs not wants, just accept who
you’re supposed to be & leave it at that!!
