Spiritual Reality
 
 

Everyone has a spiritual sense,
even if it is just the human spirit.
 
We are Spirit.
 
We express it through our Spirituality.
 
Within a much greater Spiritual Reality.
 
We can limit our consciousness
Or expand our awareness.
 
All it takes is courage.
 
We begin modern life
with the spirit of the age,
business and science.
The modern spirit of man,
alone in an inanimate universe.
 
Religion may become part of our lives.
It gives much in civilization.
 
Or some other spirituality may express
our spiritual yearning,
expanding our experience.
 
And then there is Spiritual Reality.
It is off-the-map.
It is not a secure place
for the modern mind. 
 
We never had a choice.
It was made for us long ago.
It was decided to leave
'Spiritual Reality as whole'
and enter the City.
 
If we are not born with the Gift,
it takes risk, loss, and insecurity
to return to it in this reality.
   
There are a million paths to God.
 Even the modern one,
of reality being just
humans, molecules and energy.
 
Or the four spirits of Christianity:
God, Jesus, souls and the devil.
 
Or there is Ultimate Reality,
where all bets are off.
 
What can we do?
Our minds were trained at the innocent age of five,
to divide, analyze and manipulate reality,
for our control and security. 
 
We cannot fathom the whole
without dividing it in our minds.
 
Nothing remains whole.
Everything is divided.
 
We are separated
from natural reality,
living in the City
where the only life found is humans
living in manufactured objects.
 
As Nature returns to the City,
we will begin to learn to live with all life.
 
As non-human life returns to us,
so will Spiritual Reality.
