Query: Spiritualist...
Kaivalya
Jnani:
Spiritualist is one who follows the spiritual path. One who is
religious... the follower of a religion goes to the temple, Church or mosque to pray to God and receive his
grace. A religious person primarily believes that God is the giver of all. In absence of his grace... life on
Mother Earth would be difficult to live. Hence the prayers and
worship!
A spiritualist... a seeker of the spiritual path desires knowing the real
essence of life. In the field of spirituality the garb of a human being is just but one sojourn in the life
of our soul atman residing within our heart. In terms of spirituality... the life of a human being is not
perennial in nature. As the body dies... all is left
behind!
It is spirituality that tells us that our soul atman is the real essence
of us. It is on its cosmic journey of 8.4 million manifestations. Initially it manifests the garb of an
insect, then plant life, animal life and finally the form of a human being. Every serious seeker of
spirituality desires gaining enlightenment (kaivalya jnana) and salvation (moksha) and the
earliest.
The spiritualist knows that it is only after reaching the stage of salvation shall the soul atman within
liberate forever from the cycle of birth and death. Reaching the stage of salvation announces one has reached the
level of Mahavira, Gautama Buddha, Jesus Christ or Prophet Mohammed.
Reaching the end of cosmic life is the goal of every spiritualist.
Becoming a man god like Mahavira, Gautama Buddha, Jesus Christ or Prophet Mohammed is what every spiritual
seeker yearns for. Having gained enlightenment and salvation, the soul atman within leaves for the abode of
God, the kingdom of God (aka Vaikunth in Hinduism)... a point of no return!
