Ross Cessna | Spiritual Truth | Positive Vibes only prevents growth | Sorry, Not Sorry

 After you have peeked behind the curtain and seen the celestial gears in motion you are better able to alter your actions to achieve the results you desire. Every day when we wake up, we rise from the ashes of our former selves. Every day a new phoenix is born. What direction do you wish to guide your lives today? No tree, it is said, can grow to heaven unless its roots reach down to hell. -Carl Jung To live a spiritual life we must first find the courage to enter into the desert of loneliness and to change it by gentle and persistent efforts into a garden of solitude. Henri Nouwen Spirituality has come to be a generic catch-all term that seemingly encompasses most beliefs outside of the common coral of mainstream religions. However, when we evaluate what commonly passes as spirituality we find a pretty package that is empty. Many begin to examine the deeper meaning of existence but stop short at spiritual materialism and fluffy feel-good phrases. It’s my belief that to actually acquire any true spiritual gnosis we have to dig in deep to the dark parts of our soul, the darkness of humanity and the darkness of the world. It’s here in this darkness that our true seed of spirituality is planted and able to take firm root. With a little nature and nurture, we can pierce the surface of our souls and ascend towards the sun. https://spiritualphoenixstudios.com https://oracleatmushin.com
