Transformation spiritual

Awareness is the ability to be conscious. Awareness is the first step to (spiritual) development, also called change or transformation. Spiritual development has a different dimension for everyone. Some people will look for God in church and some people will find God (or the source) in the silence within, independent of all religions. 

The ecstatic tenor of Khunrath s rhetoric is itself perhaps modelled on the spiritus rhetoricus of Erasmus early hermeneutics in which he had explored the spiritual sense of a text as being a force of divine grace that could spontaneously transform the reader. It was the personal experience of the sense of scripture that Erasmus had favoured in the Enchiridion Hence, also the outcries of Hallelujah and Lob Herr that punctuate, or conclude, Khunrath s writings.

Since all is ultimately consciousness, mind (as Buddhist metaphysics terms consciousness) is the builder of all and the source of the illusion of separateness. It is by the skillful use of the image-building faculty of consciousness (imagination) that we fashion the tools for our liberation. The subjectivity of inner vision does not diminish its reality value. It is real on its own level. Such visions are not hallucinations, because their reality is that of the human psyche. They are symbols in which the highest knowledge and the noblest endeavor of the human mind are embodied. Visualization is the creative process of spiritual projection, through which inner experience is translated into visible form, comparable to the creative act of an artist whose subjective idea, emotion, or vision is transformed into an objective work of art which then takes on a reality of its own, independent of the creator. 

Breathing is a vehicle of spiritual experience, the link between the physical body and the mind. It is the first step in the transformation of the body from a more or less passive and unconscious functioning physical organ into a vehicle for or tool of a perfectly developed and enlightened mind, as demonstrated by the perfection and radiance of the Buddha s body. 

The deceptive serenity of the sky as it has caressed the eye of humanity from time immemorial is perhaps the very condition for the nurture of rational thought. If from the beginning our eye had seen all these phenomena, and not only the calm suns, would our soul not have suffered perpetual torment In the last century, was the revelation of creative violence that unendingly shakes and reshapes the Cosmos the prelude to a spiritual transformation of our civilisation In the words of Roberto Matta, the great surrealist painter revolution means changing the sky.
