The basic difference between Religion and Spirituality, is that Religion is founded on the belief that our identity is that of a sinful human nature.
Spirituality is founded on knowing and experiencing our True Identity, that is of a Divine nature as a Spiritual Being.
It’s important to know however that this can’t be known, until an open heart and mind is achieved and the ego is surrendered. Therefore trying to convince someone of their True Identity before they are ready, will only leave us frustrated and may cause a division.
When we embrace the belief that our nature is that of a sinful human, we are automatically programmed to judge not only ourself, but also others. What’s even worse is that, what we are really judging is body/mind suits or I like to refer to them as “costumes and roles” that we are playing for a little while.
Judging each others costumes, is a complete waste of time and stifles our growth and awakening spiritually.
It’s really quite fascinating that we spend so much time judging illusionary body/minds and that it doesn’t even occur to us, that one day we will lay down this body/mind suit and the roles we’ve played. This life and that character, will be a distant memory, a vapor. All that will matter in that moment is how we transcended the egotistical programmed mind, discovered our Divine nature, and used this character to be unconditional love.
Religion has done a really good job of convincing us that it is possible and even encouraged, to be judging ourselves and others, while also being love. What Religion has failed to understand, is that love is the absence of judgment. We are deceiving ourselves if we believe that we can judge someone and believe they are going to hell and at the same time love them. That belief is actually blocking our love and robbing us of our True Identity.
When helping my students to heal; Mind-Body-Spirit, I basically take them through 3 steps:
We are in the midst of a global awakening right now, where many people are tired of not living in peace and constantly judging one another. They are seeking a better way. These steps that I’m sharing, is basically the way out of the egotistical tormented mind, and into the light of our True Identity that would never judge.
Knowing Our True Identity Is Crucial In Transitioning
One of the last things I said to my step dad before he dropped his body/mind suit, was that he is not the body/mind, he’s a Divine Being. He asked why I had not told him this sooner, I said because I had just awakened to this truth. A few days later her transitioned peacefully.
When we let go of being a body/mind and embrace our True Identity we live is power and peace. Then when it’s time to leave this dimension, our transition will be easy and we will no longer fear death.
