Going Within, Essence of Spiritual Journey

Interiorisation, is the essence of Spiritual growth. It happens naturally in a meditative state. In a deep state of meditation, the consciousness withdraws from outward expression of sense play & begins to turn inwards.

As one perseveres, an aspirant slowly begins to go deeper & deeper within & consciousness begins to withdraw from the senses. This process leads to a sense of peace and bliss within. As one evolves, it results in a more elevated & blissful state; Anand – awastha.

Now, the seeker longs to stay in this heightened & peaceful state for longer & longer duration other than during the meditative process.

An obvious question thus is how to remain in an interiorised state.

Seekers may, during the course of the day take a pause regularly; close one’s eyes and be with the breath for a while, just be with the breath, this will help in interiorising, casual gaze can be on the third eye.

Keep reminding yourself that everything is ‘God Ordained’, including the work you perform. Every action is service to the Lord & His cause. Purity of action will follow with ease as we cultivate a sense of gratitude. This keeps the chetna elevated.

Mantra chanting also assists in mindfulness & withdrawing from external distractions & turning inwards.

Keep the faith!  Remain interiorised !
