One of the peculiarities of modern life is that people violently disagree over religious beliefs and then go on to lead similar lives. With of without belief in God, the chain of events leading from silent awareness to physical reality remains intact.
The operating system of the universe applies to everyone alike, and it works along principles that do not require your cooperation.
However, if you decide to lead a conciously spiritual life, a change accurs. The principles of the operating system, which means the rules of creation, become personal.
If transformation is the norm, then spiritual transformation falls into place as an extention of where life has been going all along.
While still remaining who you are, you can bring about quantum leap in your awareness, and the sign that the leap is real, will be some emergent property you never experienced in the past. These can be:
- clarity of awareness. Feels totally alert and carefree.
- knowingness. Feels wise, confident, unshakeable and yet humble.
- reverence of life. Feels warm, connected and exhilarating.
- absence of violence. Feels peaceful, still and completely without resistance.
- fearlessness.
- nonattachment.
- wholeness.
