When still more spiritual growth becomes our sincerest goal, our thinking is upgraded, lifted from the material to the spiritual.
Stayed in the material mind, we spend the better part of our lives trying to make that happen.
We fret, stew, worry and weep over our human mistakes all the while reading, studying, thinking on how we can use God's will to make our human mistakes unhappen. We've come to the fork in the road...or, U-bie time!
There is such a simple fix, a fix requiring nothing extra from God. That fix is, When wrong, promptly admit it.
However, that simple fix is the egoic mind's super power, the bane and the block to most spiritual growth, for that mind will ever read, If wrong, promptly admit it.
It takes as long as it takes for us to realize that super power is powerless in the face of when. When wrong is egoless...God's hidey-hole.
It is still more spiritual growth in the form of thank you that teaches us our mistakes make our turnaround, our change of mind. Thank you turns us from "for the benefit of self" toward others..."for the benefit of others."
My love and laugh idea of still more spiritual growth is in a "thinking of you" card I once received: The front shows a kitty on her yoga mat with her bottle of water beside her. She is twisted into an incredibly complex yoga position, and she has a most disgruntled look on her face. Inside, the card reads, 'I meditate, I do yoga, I chant...and I still want to smack someone!'
There's me doing my spiritual work through yoga, seeking to change, and I am still with me...ensuring I continue seeking still more spiritual growth.
Thank you.
