Namaste!
Welcome to The Spiritual Blogger and my very first post. My name is Dave and I have been on a spiritual journey for many years. In that time I have read many books by many authors, investigated many different spiritual philosophies to find the one that is right for me. After all it has been said that, “many rays lead the the one sun”.
Currently, I have found three that particularly resonate with me and for which I have made the best progress. The first is Eckhart Tolle who has this sublime gift of taking difficult to understand teachings and putting them across in an easy to understand way. Next is Lester Levenson who developed a technique, which I have found useful in releasing the emotions that cover up my essential nature. By off-loading these emotions it has allowed me to raise my ability to understand and get spiritual ideas. And finally, is Dr David Hawkins whose series of books goes deeper into the journey, with more detail of what lays ahead for the spiritual devotee. Of particular interest his the map of conscious and the idea that consciousness evolves until we get to enlightenment.
Although these are my current three I never rest on searching for spiritual works that deepen my understanding. For me reading and practising different approaches is tremendously helpful as they allow you to see the same thing but from different angles and perspectives. What I don’t get from one perspective I often find I get from another.
Just to finish, it is my sincere wish that you find this website of some use and you return as it evolves and matures. By the way all the work in the poems section are written by me. Hope you enjoy them!
