Worlds, physical and spiritual - we have organs for living in both

06/19/2015

Human beings have a soul that can only find fulfilment in vastness, in the infinite. That is why, even if the physical world they perceive with their sense organs is useful, even indispensable, and its variety fascinating, the satisfaction is partial and is not enough to fulfil their life. Why do children love fairy tales so much? And why do most adults take refuge as soon as they can in strange universes, in the fantastic and the irrational? Because it is an innate human need: God created them to live in two worlds, the objective and the subjective, the visible and the invisible, the material and the spiritual. So they have the ability to engage with these two worlds, and they need both. Only, they must not confuse things: the reality they perceive through their physical sense organs (touch, taste, smell, hearing and sight) is not the same reality they perceive through their spiritual sense organs (their aura, solar plexus, hara centre and chakras). These are two different worlds, and to get to know them they must learn how to use different ‘tools’.
