Thought Adjuster: “One symptom of spiritual growth is your wishing for a simpler way of life. When one discovers what is truly important, many of the things that vie for people’s attention simply lose their value. Those who start to perceive the truth discover that actually only a few things are needed to live a happy life and that the greatest satisfaction in life comes from the relationships with others. In other words, the love you share with those around you determines the quality of your life.
“There are many who are powerful and fortunate in the eyes of the multitude but face each day with discouragement and hopelessness. They don’t anticipate anything positive coming into their lives. In the eyes of others, the actions of those who sometimes decide to end their lives, even when in appearance they possess everything, seem senseless and illogical. How can somebody with so many material benefits feel as if something is missing? Those mortals who sometimes decide to abandon everything realize late in their life that they wasted their time wishing and struggling to obtain material things and when they finally got them this did not bring them any real happiness. For some human beings it is very difficult to accept a grave mistake and decide to start again from the beginning, particularly when they have traveled the same road for many years and sometimes for a lifetime.
“However, those who have the courage to abandon their materialistic desires and tendencies to start over as children and search what is truly valuable, will find what their souls search for — that which the Divine Presence inspires them to look for. This is what the Master suggested when He said that unless a man is born again he will not enter the kingdom. To be born again and to start exploring as a child is to abandon the beliefs and assumptions about life and discovering a new path, with the intent of accepting the guidance of the presence of the Father inside each one of us.
“To live a simpler life has nothing to do with where you live. It is not necessary to escape to a remote place to remove everything that represents an obstacle to your spiritual progress. Just a simple mental change is all that is required. To renounce material things does not mean to stop working or abandoning your duties. It means to live in such a way that material things become useful resources to your life, instead of becoming your masters. Become the master of your own destiny and you will discover the path your Father wishes to reveal to you to help you reach perfection of being.”
