Tips for Spiritual growth

Spiritual growth is not possible without inner cleansing. 
Before a meditation and during any other active practice towards spiritual growth, it is essential to ingest very light foods and plenty of water. This aids the vibrations to become finer and to increase their rate of vibration, enabling quicker connection between you and higher self or your counsellor/guide. 


Fruits and vegetables (especially those that are uncooked) will help towards this. It is advisable to avoid the drinking of tea, coffee and milk before such practices. The stomach must be kept light so that the energy is not used for the digestive process but is used for the purpose that you desire i.e. connection with the higher self.
 An open flame, e.g. a candle or a diya can cleanse the vibrations around you and bring you the protective energy of the Divine Light of which it is a physical manifestation. 
Attachments (clinging on to partners, parents, children, money, food/taste, property etc.) are strong cords which stop spiritual growth. 


We must endeavor to detach ourselves from everything that is most dear to us, in order to grow, because the soul needs only itself. To detach does not mean to become indifferent, insensitive and uncaring.
 Divine light has manifested itself into your physical own ‘formations’ of eyes, ears, nose, hair, hands, toes, organs, all these wonderful formations of light, but you are still connected. Now feel the connection, complete and whole with every part of you. Develop a connection to every part of you and you will be in a perfection of health.
