Seven Pillars of Authentic Spirituality
From The SpiritWiki
There are Seven Pillars of authentic spirituality. In order to be authentic and not merely an example of system indoctrination, a spirituality must conform to these seven pillars. Authentic spirituality is:
- Fruitful. Authentic spirituality provides ideas, concepts, and practices that lead to the identification of blockages and energetic oppressions, and the subsequent resolution of blockages resulting in increases consciousness in the body, and enhanced functioning of the physical unit.
- Grounded. Authentic spirituality honors and respects this physical universe. It is recognized that the purpose of physical manifestation is to experience variation and have fun. Therefore, authentic spirituality always honors The Body of Spirit, embraces manifestation in this physical universe, and looks to the health, well being, and improvement of The Body of Spirit as the primary (indeed only) goal of incarnated monadic consciousness.
- Embodied. Authentic spirituality respects and embraces the glory, significance and power of the Physical Unit as a vehicle for consciousness. The goal of embodied spirituality is not so much "transformation" or "creative exploration" (Ferrer, 2006) as it is full Activation of the Physical Unit and full expression of consciousness Awakening in the physical world.
- Empowering. Authentic spirituality empowers people to change. Authentic spirituality never requires submission to higher powers or higher authorities but instead emphasizes the power and ability of each person to made decision and manifest a life and reality in line with the nature of their higher consciousness and the dictates of their higher self. Authentic spirituality provides the tools (i.e. chakra activations, psychological guidance, and spiritual assistance) to enable the full empowerment and activation of the physical unit, accompanied by the will and desire to use it. Authentic spirituality recognizes that we (and by "we" I mean incarnated monads) have the creative power of God at our fingertips.
- Responsible.The core truth of our shared Divinity, and a grounded expression of consciousness in this 4D realm, lead to the inevitable conclusion that the world "as it currently is" is unacceptable and "really not OK" and must be transformed. Therefore, authentic spirituality does not seek to avoid social or collective responsibility but instead posits an adamant collective responsibility to fix what is wrong with this planet, and uplift all life in the process. Authentic spirituality tolerates no excuses. We are the keepers of our brothers and sisters.
- Accessible. In an authentic spirituality, the truths of Spirit, god, consciousness, and creation are presented in a grounded and easy-to-understand fashion. Authentic spirituality eschews pompous, ego based, jargon-filled communication (which tends to alienate and exclude large segments of this globes population) in favor of clear and accessible expressions of Truth accessible to all.
- Empirically verifiable and epistemologically sophisticated. Authentic spiritualities are evidence based. Authentic spirituality does not shy away from empirical verification or critical inquiry and in fact welcomes efforts to confirm or deny principles and statements.
In addition to these seven pillars, authentic spirituality will also be inclusive and sophisticated. Nothing in the statements of an authentic should contradict the psychological, physical, emotional, social, or economic Truths of this world.
