Transformative Spiritual Experiences

1
00:00:01,900 --> 00:00:05,700
As Consciousness develops in the
Seeker, it clearly brings with

2
00:00:05,700 --> 00:00:11,100
it changes in the way the Seeker
perceives understands and reacts

3
00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:16,600
to events situations people
opportunities Etc.

4
00:00:17,700 --> 00:00:21,700
What is often forgotten is that
it is not the extraordinary and

5
00:00:21,700 --> 00:00:26,000
massive experiences that
effectuate long-term change.

6
00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:31,100
But more realistically, it is
the day-to-day adjustments that

7
00:00:31,100 --> 00:00:35,200
come about through the steady
process of Consciousness growth.

8
00:00:36,700 --> 00:00:40,500
as the Seeker becomes more in
touch with the inner psychic

9
00:00:40,500 --> 00:00:47,400
being he experiences aspiration
devotion, compassion, empathy

10
00:00:47,700 --> 00:00:51,600
piece deeper, understanding of
the relationships that are

11
00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:57,500
expressive of the unity of the
world and more These things come

12
00:00:57,500 --> 00:01:02,900
as experiences insights openings
that in many cases are

13
00:01:02,900 --> 00:01:07,300
dramatically different than the
way the egotistic personality of

14
00:01:07,300 --> 00:01:10,800
that individual has responded in
the past.

15
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:16,500
These are the powers of
transformation far more than

16
00:01:16,500 --> 00:01:21,900
some sudden experience that has
a dramatic effect but then Fades

17
00:01:22,300 --> 00:01:26,500
and leaves the Seeker still with
all the issues that need to be

18
00:01:26,500 --> 00:01:31,500
addressed in his life.
The mother observes quote.

19
00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:36,300
However, in the normal course,
to the degree that you progress

20
00:01:36,300 --> 00:01:39,900
inwardly, every step that you
take towards the true

21
00:01:39,900 --> 00:01:44,300
Consciousness is accompanied by
a certain number of experiences

22
00:01:44,300 --> 00:01:49,100
corresponding to it, which allow
you to understand the situation

23
00:01:49,500 --> 00:01:52,500
you are in this, of course, is
normal.

24
00:01:53,300 --> 00:01:57,900
It ought to be like that.
But these usually are not such

25
00:01:57,900 --> 00:02:00,300
Sensational experiences.
As to be made.

26
00:02:00,300 --> 00:02:04,800
Much of people often have all of
a sudden and illumination of

27
00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:09,100
Consciousness and inner
indication and unusual

28
00:02:09,100 --> 00:02:12,400
perception.
But when they are not turned

29
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:17,200
exclusively towards the desire
to have experiences, they don't

30
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:21,200
attach much importance to it.
Sometimes they don't even

31
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:25,900
attached enough importance.
The indication came showing them

32
00:02:25,900 --> 00:02:30,200
something, but they were not
even aware of it yet.

33
00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:33,600
It is not these things which
give you the impression that you

34
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:37,700
are living in a Wonderful World.
These things are quite normal.

35
00:02:38,700 --> 00:02:42,800
Suddenly an opening in the mind,
a light that comes one

36
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:47,200
understands something which he
did not before you take that for

37
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:53,500
a very natural phenomenon but it
is a spiritual experience or the

38
00:02:53,500 --> 00:02:57,500
clear seeing of a situation.
The understanding of what is

39
00:02:57,500 --> 00:03:00,100
happening in oneself of the
state.

40
00:03:00,100 --> 00:03:04,300
One is in the indication of the
exact progress, one ought to

41
00:03:04,300 --> 00:03:09,200
make of the thing that's to be
corrected This too is an

42
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:14,900
experience, an experience that
comes from within it is

43
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:17,900
indication given to you by the
psychic.

44
00:03:18,700 --> 00:03:24,000
People take this also as quite a
natural fact, they do not attach

45
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:29,400
any importance to it.
