Lack of Spiritual Success & Its Causes #100
A common occurrence and complaint among aspiring sadhikas and practitioners, in every age, is the lack of any appreciable progress along the path, sometimes even in the face of an active and ongoing spiritual practice. In the Vivekachudamani, Shankara takes this problem to task for the benefit of sincere seekers after Enlightenment. Most often it is an unclear or distorted perspective that hampers advancement, so the seeker, obtaining right guidance from the preceptor, must look both backwards and inwards to effect a solution. Then, and as long as the courage of one’s convictions remains steady and long-lived, certain signs appear that allow the practitioner to move forward with all assurance. All of this, and more is outlined in Shankara’s indepth scrutiny of all aspects surrounding this problem.
Spiritual Awakening by Stages #190
One of the concerns of all spiritual aspirants, once the path to Reality has been set foot upon, is whether or not any progress is being made. The realized souls of India, those unique beings who walk the path to Enlightenment every time they incarnate for the highest good of living beings, have come to see that a few well-marked stages become evident as the radiant road to realization opens up before them. Noting these down for others in the future, they have classed them into four general phases of growth and progress. Sri Ramakrishna has spoken of them as well in His Gospel, giving out the characteristics of each in no uncertain terms.
Time & Enlightenment #152
There is no doubt that the factor of time plays an essential role in the attainment of spiritual enlightenment. Called Kramamukti in the Vedic tradition, what is inferred is a slower-paced and gradual inward ascension into the fullness of realization, over lifetimes. Though a few rarer souls may take swifter and more direct routes to Brahman and Ishvara, most beings on earth will walk this slower, gradated path. On the wisdom chart displayed here, some of the dynamics of spiritual evolution are laid out for study, along with many of the trials, requirements, and landmarks that accompany them. Replete with several wisdom quotes by a few of the most revered luminaries on earth over cycles of time, this chart is one to be posted on the walls of the household, ashrama, and monastery alike, as well as in educational institutions.
The Four Plateaus for Approaching Brahman #77
Being another fine dharmic teaching from the Bhagavad Gita, these four ways of sadhana are perfect for coming close to God once again, utilizing direct and somewhat unorthodox methods that involve human will power and effortless progress. The Blessed Lord, Sri Krishna, advises the swift coming to terms with the mind and ego, conferring wisdom that is both practical and straightforward. This teaching chart could easily be
placed in the Nonduality category of dharmaartwisdomcharts, showing, as it does, the powerful wish of all Avatars that the soul attain to nondual Samadhi and immersion into Brahman, Buddha Nature, or the All-Mighty Father.
