The you in your head?

You can easily understand how the tiny spark of life, which the Creator has implanted can evolve until it becomes the complex spirit that inhabits the material form or body that you call you―

The you in  your head.

You can further understand how this spirit that is in you may continue to evolve until it has become sufficiently strong or full of vitality or life to no longer need the protection of a material body, but can continue its evolution without this material hindrance.

It is still possible for you to further understand how this spirit that is now free from a material body can continue to evolve until it arrives in the presence of its God, until it becomes like unto the God Who gave it birth and started it on its evolutionary journey.

Key signs of growth?

Your spiritual development can be measured by the sublimity of your thought and emotional depth of your feelings.

Hard work, faith and peace?

Always remember—

You will conquer where you have failed—

You will reap where you have sown—

And till the ground where clods are turned—

The furrows be as driven snow.

Your wish so cherished will be blessed—

And heaven will be your rest.

Divine origin?

Each spirit is but a spark of God, which through evolution will become like unto the God who gave it birth.

Shared essence?

The life element or spirit that is in you does not differ in any essential from the life element or spirit that is in a tree or a flower or a bird or other animal or plant or mineral, does not differ in any essential, does not differ except in its evolution or development.

Barriers to living fully?

Most of us do not get as much out of life as we should because we do not know how to live.

Journey to God?

All real friendships must spring from spiritual harmony. Life is not measured by years, but by living, by the amount of good it has brought us, the distance on the road to spiritual perfection it has carried us, and the nearness to God it has left us.

Not all things are good?

Everything works together for good.

Why inner beauty wins?

Spirit beauty is the only beauty that will bear close inspection. All other beauty is best observed from a distance.

Finding beauty each day?

All things possess beauty. Each day a new world of beauty is unrolled for those who seek the beautiful.

Spark of life?

Spirit is the electric spark, which makes possible material or physical life.

Without spirit there could be no material or physical or animal life, and this physical or material or animal life cannot in any case survive the departure of the spirit within.

Each spirit inhabits a material body that is capable of certain independent actions―a material body that was created to protect this spirit in the early stages of its development or until it has evolved sufficient vitality and strength and self-consciousness to no longer need such protection.

Each physical or animal form contains two lives―each capable of certain independent actions.

Finding meaning in belief?

Have faith in some God and believe whatever you will or can. All is well.

Core idea of faith?

No religious theories, not dogmas or creeds are necessary to spiritual development. Just faith is all that is needed. Faith in some God—just something to cause you to seek to become better than you are―to cause you to make an effort to evolve out of yourself into something higher, something more like the faith that you hold—

As you mount higher and higher in the scale of spiritual evolution you become more and more in control of your destiny.

Never finished?

Nothing in this world is finished. Everything is in course of being developed or evolved or perfected.

Evolution is the first aim of all life—Spiritual evolution first, and then mental and physical evolution.

Role of vitue?

Under the Law of Spiritual Evolution, every virtue and vice is accounted for, considered and weighed, and either helps you in your evolution or retards you in your spiritual growth.
