What is Spiritual Development? Gaining Insight into One's Self

Seriously now, I have asked myself that question so many times in my life. What is spiritual development? Also, when and how will I know that I am developing and on the correct path? These types of questions are asked by thousands of people all over the world everyday, because there are real people who want to know God and seek out the spirit of God everyday of their lives. To me spiritual development comes whether we want it to or not, it is a natural occurring presence in our universe. Your state of being either begins to understand and develop into a more spiritual being or if you have no tools and no desire for spiritual development you can even regress.

Spiritual development does not have to be fast and many times is not. It can take several life times for many of us to catch on. Gaining insight into ones self and honestly seeking to improve your general understanding of life through a relationship with spirit may not be totally realized just by reading books or attending services. Yes, they will help at times, but in my life I needed first hand experience rather that just reading about how someone else has attained their goals. While some people will seek outside help to gain knowledge, I needed methods that would help me realize what I already have. I wanted to earn the knowledge, not just have it given to me. You can use the spiritual exercises of Eckancar to earn the knowledge and spiritual insight that you desire, to help you grow spiritually and emotionally.

Your spiritual development is your responsibility and starting with a few simple spiritual exercises you can be on the road to the knowledge that has been available to us all, but available to those who want to earn it. Just by singing Hu (pronounced Hue) you can connect with spirit as you never have before, build a relationship with spirit and become a co-worker with God. You can take responsibility for your own spiritual development, as it should be. You will also learn that the blessings from God are available to us all, all we need to do is ask.

Some will ask '"That's all I have to do is sing Hu everyday?". I tell them that singing Hu is like opening the door. If you are looking for the endless adventure of spirit and you believe that you as soul want to be a co-worker with God and do not want to rest for all eternity, then you are in the right place.
