Spiritual Growth Is Vital For Wellbeing

By Jerry King


A human being is body, mind and spirit. It is important for all these areas to grow. One should not take spiritual growth for granted. It gives sense and meaning to life. Life will become better once a person embraces spirituality. This is simply connecting with something bigger. There is more than what an individual can see with his eye. There is the realm of the spirit. This is unseen and intangible. One can choose to see it as something outside one's body. Alternatively, other people think that they have spirits inside them.

Spiritual food is just as important as the normal food. A person's spirit deserves nourishment but few individuals do these. All that most people are concerned with is beautifying their bodies and satisfying their stomachs. Yet, the body and the stomach will be destroyed and the spirit will remain. Being beautiful and eating right have their place in wellness. However, one should not forget the need for spiritual nourishment.

The spirit is there. It exists, even if a person is ignoring it. It listens to everything in one's mind and knows beforehand what an individual will do next. Life will be meaningless and sad if one does not appreciate the value of the spirit. To be happy, comfortable and satisfied, growing one's spirit will help. It starts with baby steps.

To many, life seems a mystery. Some see life as one big Rubik's cube or an unsolvable crossword puzzle. This is because of failure to connect the dots. The equation will be complete once the spirit is factored in and one will be able to enjoy the abundance of life. It is not all about flesh, blood, thoughts and emotions.

Growth is needed whether it is body wise or spirit wise. At the end of the day, what matters most is going to the next level. There are various spirit levels. With continued growing, it will reach a point where one will have spirit eyes. These will see great and amazing things that the normal eyes cannot see or comprehend.

The three major religions of the world emphasize spirituality. These are Christianity, Islam and Judaism. This is because of the belief in a Higher Being who is omnipresent and controls all the affairs of the world. There are many other religions apart from these. All of them emphasize on the purpose of one's spirit. Religious activity is usually geared towards nurturing an individual's spirit.

One can be a non-believer yet place a lot of value on issues pertaining to the spirit. It is not an issue of faith. It is more than what someone believes in. This matter is primarily about the inner self. That side that no one can see but only a person. People can only see the outside. They cannot see the soul.

Man was meant to be a spirit being. However, most humans try very much to separate themselves from their essence of being that is their spirit. Before a person was conceived and brought to this world, he existed as a spirit. With death, the body decomposes and perishes and the soul is removed and starts existing on its own.
