Spiritual Retreats Assistance
We all have a purpose for being here on this planet at this time in history. It's our choice whether we are going to accomplish this purpose that can bring us peace, love, joy, passion, vitality, and freedom. Every one of us has another dharma to pursue, and it isn't an external mission, rather it's an internal pursuit. We must follow our hearts if we are ever to reach the contentment of the heart, right? Searching within is the only area to find it, and only we know if the path we are on is right for us.
Our dharma is our own personal liberation, and whenever we share it with the world the gifts bestowed are immense for all men and women who come in contact. Whether it will be a great mother or father, a well know philanthropist, a teacher of a spiritual path, and even the best spouse, our gift when given to the world makes the universe a far better place to be. It also creates Love, Peace, Passion, Joy, Vitality, and Freedom in our lives. If every decision you make is in alignment with your dharma, you might see that as being rather confining. However I encourage you to seek for yourself, to witness the paradox. It's an amazing freedom to learn that the path you are on is the exact right path at this moment in your life.
Morality is usually defined as the ability of someone to distinguish good and evil or right and wrong. A moral man follows the path of good and righteousness. The system of determining right and wrong may be established by some authority, for example a Churches, an institution, a society, a government or by the individual himself. Thus logically the moral codes must be different for each society, religion as well as individual. Thus many people consider morality as individualistic which is based upon time and society. Often it really is argued that there can no universal principles of morality.
Our well being would depend on or inner peace and happiness, not the items we own or our status in society. External development and material things have blurred our view of what is actually essential in life. The only way to improve our quality lifestyle just isn't to go subscribe to corporate greed but to practice Dharma and obtain control of our inner selves. Think about it, do you really need a big fancy TV or possibly a big expensive house? Even if those things do make you happy for awhile, how long does the feeling last? The point isn't give these things up completely but to live life in moderation. Buddha can teach us how to find pure, lasting happiness by utilizing Dharma as a guide!
Whenever we decide that it is actually time for a change, and accept Buddha's teachings of meditation into our daily way of life we can over come the obstacles of greed and use each problem we encounter as a present to learn and grow. Without inner peace, outer peace is impossible. As we can control our thoughts and minds by following spiritual paths then outer peace will flow naturally into our lives.
Once we are living a life in quest for our dharma, we have committed to being at cause for everything that we do. Until that point we are living a life within the Karmic circle, which is being at effect for everything that happens in our life. We all are already in an area where it just feels like we have no control, and life just seems to be happening to us. We get caught up in how life "should be" as opposed to being focused upon how we "should be". Until we know who we actually are, and take the deep inner journey to discover who we are independent of class, creed, skin color, sexual orientation. As one of my favorite speakers, Stedman Graham said, "the only line that matters on your drivers license should be the line with your name on it. On the other hand, to many times we associate more with the additional lines to tell us who we are."
When you know who you are and what your own dharma is, you will start to notice that even the largest and most painful situations in life never happen to you. Rather they are going to happen for you.
