Anyone on a spiritual growth journey likely acknowledges that the pursuit of understanding is a never-ending rabbit hole. The further you walk this path, the more spirituality becomes an increasingly entwined part of life.
Spirituality as a whole becomes more cohesive, however, it remains an ambiguous topic. After about 11 years on a self-discovery journey, I’m writing this article to present some spiritual truths I’ve acquired along my journey that you may have never considered.
I’m not saying I know all the secrets of the universe, that would be absurd. Of course, as I continue to spiritually mature, I’m sure my understanding will continue to evolve.ย With that said, here are 12 spiritual truths to bring a little more sense into your Earthly existence.
1. It's all real
A creator, deities, mythology, astrology, spirits, energies, dimensions, realms, spiritual powers, astral projection, shamanism, witchcraft, voodoo, psychic abilities, and so much more… All of this exists on some level of reality.
I would have never believed in any of this until I began traveling. I now see the truth in any given spiritual practice after 8 years traveling the world and exploring various modalities and cultures, that there is a reason why these practices and bodies of knowledge exist.
However, most people who are skeptical will not see it, because they have never really looked. It has taken my years of learning, exploring, and practicing to begin to see these practices very differently. The more you open your consciousness via spiritual practice, the more real it becomes.
Dedicate yourself to a practice or to learning a body of knowledge, and you’ll begin to perceive it very differently.
2. Pay attention to the common themes
You’ll begin to notice common themes when delving into various religions or spiritual belief systems. Likewise, if you begin exploring beyond the crust of different belief systems, you will start to notice that many of the themes taught are universal. They may each be wrapped in a different style of wrapping paper, but the package is the same.
Working in the shamanic medicine space in South America, I’ve never met a shaman who doesn’t believe in a chakra system, Jesus, or deities. If you talk to a devoted monk in Sri Lanka, a Vodou priest in Haiti, a Lama from Tibet, or a Guru from India, you’ll find they all have very similar beliefs.
Of course, for any belief system, there are layers of skewed interpretation, indoctrination, and falsities too. This is what gives religion a bad reputation. Therefore, we must sheer the wool blanketing the universal truth and look for the deeper, overlaying themes that are present in many belief systems.
3. Spiritual practice is a pathway into consciousness
A biologist will look at a piece of dirt and say ‘It’s made of microorganisms’. A physicist will look at that same piece of dirt and say ‘No, it’s made of particles’. A mathematician will look at that piece of dirt, and say ‘No you fools, it’s made of equations’.
Using the same rhetoric, it sounds quite silly to label someone else’s spiritual practice as false just because you resonate with something else. You may feel energies, they may see spirits, it doesn’t mean anyone is wrong. Everyone on a spiritual growth journey has different ways of connecting to these deeper realms of consciousness and perceiving different qualities of information through these pathways.
Spiritual practice becomes the act of moving deeper inside your consciousness to explore what it can do, rather than seeking outwards for answers. Every path, with dedication, discipline, and practice will eventually lead inwards, toward self-reflection, introspection, and a deeper understanding of oneself.
4. We're experiencing one facet of reality
What we’re currently experiencing is just one facet of our multi-dimensional consciousness. Your consciousness vicariously exists in other dimensions too, projecting through them like light projecting through panes of glass.
The spiritual dimensions are deeper layers of reality that we’re tethered to via the soul. Many dimensions exist, each with unique laws that are completely foreign to our human experience. Can you conceptualize a dimension that doesn’t have matter, time, space, or form? Probably not, because these constructs are all we have ever known, in this particular lifetime.
I imagine existence as a cube. Each face of this cube represents a dimension. Our universe is just one face of this cube into which your consciousness is currently projecting. Within the center of this cube is what we understand as the source, or god, or the creator, however you want to label it. This is like the generator that creates these projections.
Consciousness manifests outwards and permeates different faces of this cube, meaning your consciousness vicariously exists in other realms too. You are an interdimensional being experiencing one slither of your consciousness.
5. Duality is a mechanism for diversifying the nature of experience
Duality exists to provide contrast. In source, in totality; the deepest dimension of our collective consciousness where all things manifest from, there is no separation. There is no contrast. The experience of consciousness is uniform. It simply just is with no connotation.
The further a dimension strays from this generative core that we can interpret as the creator, the more dualistic it becomes meaning more narrative is created to diversify the experience of consciousness.
Our world is a pretty diverse place. Lots can be experienced here, which is why it’s like a soul’s spiritual boot camp. I too believe some realms are more dualistic than ours, meaning the extremes of experience are greater than what can be experienced here, and some realms are less dualistic, meaning the nature of consciousness is more uniform.
Therefore, Duality allows consciousness to undergo a broader array of experiences, from beautiful, to horrific, to everything in between. Why? Because diversity of experience allows consciousness to simply experience more. As experience is the only true mechanism for growth, more duality = more soul growth.
6. Heaven and hell are states of consciousness
Most religions and spiritual belief systems have some conception of hellish realms and heavenly realms. As this is another common theme among religions, I believe these concepts are real.
Our experience here on Earth too can be heavenly, or hellish in the truest sense of the word, and that’s just this dimension. There also exists denser dimensions where souls may go to burn off some serious karma. Likewise, there exist heavenly realms where the civilizations have worked it all out. Karma is the ticket to these realms.
Energy is the base building block of consciousness, and all things are made of consciousness. However, the vibration of consciousness determines the quality of energy. A low vibration corresponds with suffering, while a high vibration corresponds with joy.
Someone who deliberately causes suffering to others must be in a low-vibrational state, because their behavior is a manifestation of their suffering, meaning karma must guide that soul towards experiences that crack the nut of consciousness open to the light, regardless of how much pressure it takes.
7. Your vibration determines whether spirituality 'exists'
Low vibration densifies the reality of the node of consciousness experiencing it. A dense vibration closes off the spiritual realms making existence more carnal and for lack of a better word – animalistic.
On the other hand, the more the vibration rises, the more the experience of consciousness expands into new territory, where spirituality becomes an inescapable, palpable, and immediate incorporation of this world. Both of these paradigms are correct at the same time, depending on one’s state of consciousness. Therefore, anyone believing spirituality is a bunch of fluff is correct, because, in their reality, it does not exist.
This phenomenon can be described as a 5-dimensional reality, and many of us are moving in that direction where spirituality will be, is, and always has been an inseparable component of reality.
So if you want to retract your consciousness and stay in the dense 3D Earth, it requires you not to explore your consciousness, heal, learn, grow, or evolve. Therefore, from your point of view, it’s all a load of hippy BS, because your consciousness is fundamentally separated from it.
8. The creator is inherently 'good'
Everything serves the soul’s journey toward enlightenment. This includes the painful experiences and karma, the mistakes and the suffering. The entire system is designed to facilitate growth because god is growing.
These systems are a manifestation of god’s consciousness, our soul journeys are reflections of our creator. God is still discovering itself, with an infinite ability to do so. Therefore, all consciousness, in whatever form it takes, is ultimately on a path of growth, regardless of what it’s currently experiencing.
This is why god created all these dimensions and experiences that it can undergo in an infinite amount of manifestations, in every possible form, to collect more information to further understand itself. Your soul is like a node that separates from the database to undergo unique experiences and report back.
Despite how lost a soul is, or how far it strays from god, eventually, all souls return to source through awakening and understanding, regardless of what journey they have been on, or how long it has taken them. Every soul’s journey is different each with unique lessons and experiences. In the end, they all return home.
9. Be a good person
Now we arrive at the last but most important point. At the core of all spiritual belief systems is a mechanism that rewards virtue and punishes mal deeds. Whether we look at systems like karma, concepts of heaven, paradise, nirvana, or hell… every spiritual belief system stands by the same doctrine – be a good person.
The truth represented is that ill behavior, deeds, attitudes, and beliefs are manifestations of suffering. Someone who is genuinely a happy person does not cause suffering to others, they facilitate healing and growth.
Suffering occurs when one’s connection to source weakens. As if god is a light, there is less light shining on the soul when it ventures away from god. In lack of light exists darkness. Suffering is an element of darkness. Happiness, love, joy, gratitude, compassion, and other high vibrational energies occur when a connection to god is stronger.
Therefore, there is a correlation between your connection to source and how happy you are. Likewise, there is a correlation between how happy you are, and how good of a person you are. I’m not saying that miserable people can’t be genuinely good people too, but naturally, it’s harder to give and easier to take when your cup is empty.
Ultimately, the keys to heavenly states of consciousness are granted through high vibration. This means not just being a good person but genuinely wanting to be a good person, being happy, feeling abundant, loving, grateful, and joyful. They’re all the same, and if you have reached this state of consciousness, you have already made it to heaven.
