Q. Is spiritual development dependant upon ritual?
A. To ensure that your TV picture does not degrade in to a chaos of meaningless colour, ‘sync’ (synchronistic) pulses are transmitted by broadcasters world wide. When we are attempting to purify the mind in preparation for spiritual development rituals act in the same way as a TV sync pulse.
Spiritual development depends upon opening the mind and releasing it from preconceived ideas and prejudices. It is the manifestation of absolute freedom of choice. Spiritual development’s hallmark is a lasting afterglow of joy, wellbeing and bliss. It enhances compassionate unattachment and altruistic love.
The mind first becomes truth seeking. Truth beyond the ‘ignorance of Maya’; a truth beyond the entrapping desires of the physical world. As the mind opens and relaxes the spiritual dimension of the human condition starts to make itself consciously known.
However, this process has to be treated with great care, as many types of selfish, primitive yearnings can flood the mind, distracting from spiritual development. Both negative and positive thoughts are enhanced and reinforced by invoking ritual. It is therefore vital to choose a ritual which will aid your wellbeing and reinforce joy and bliss. Such reinforcement must be free of all artificial stimulants or drugs and devoid of any form of abuse to self or to others. Such rituals are found in everyday occurrences such as hand shaking or saying ‘hello’. Spirituality infuses contemplation, meditation and prayer. Positive fulfilment is found in such as the Christian Mass or Eucharist and many other religious rites and ceremonies.
