Friends! In today’s world all of us seem to be badly entangled and tied down in various problems and afflictions. And the main cause of these troubles is nothing but lack of spiritual outlook in our attitudes.
We have two ways of growing which include :
1) Material
( All those worldly means which include luxurious things that give only temporary pleasure and an illusion of development)
2) Spiritual
Now what is the spiritual way? Well, being spiritual implies making our outlook morally and ethically sound and congenial. Spirituality means identifying, developing and magnifying the divine powers existing within all of us by understanding & realizing, internally we all are one & the world is a family.
But it is very sad to notice that many of us today mistake spirituality and give it an inappropriate meaning. We think that mere prayer, worship, offering namaz and offering donations to the temples,mosques or churches is spirituality.
In order attain mental and spiritual awakening we must seek the development of our thoughts, intentions, character, morals and behavior. And once we do this, we shall take pride in saying that we are spiritually developed.
