My Idea of Spirituality

I decided to write on my this subject after i read my sister's blog. It is her first time blogging and she is doing a very good job of it.

Ruhi can be traslated to 'Ruh' an arabic term which means 'a spirit' or 'a spiritual woman'. It's funny how i actually turned out to be so spiritual.

My upbringing wasn't done in a religious way so i got a lot of freedom in choosing my own path. I never believed in the concept of religion. While it may work for someone else, i needed freedom and not a set of rules imposed on me by someone else.

I started meditating very early maybe when i was 9 or 10. The first meditation i did was with a candle in a dark room. I stared at the flame to center my mind and i felt a connection with the divine. I have to admit starting so young, it doesn't mean i mediate everyday, but i try to do it as often as possible, especially when i feel i need to connect with my higher self. Meditation helped me to grow spiritually, you can say it was my first step towards understanding spirituality and discovering it within myself.

Spirituality can be defined as a relationship between you and the divine energy and meditation is one of  many ways to make that bond stronger.

I believe in the saying 'All is one' and these three simple words have a lot of power in it. I believe in the power of love, we only understand a part of it. Nature is important to me even though i am no vegetarian but i don't think eating only vegetables means you love nature. If you are a vegetarian, more power to you. I also believe in the power of human mind, of consciousness. All these things are inter-related.

God does not rule our life, God runs through our life - this is my truth which i have learnt from experience, observations and listening to the universe.

This post only gives an overview of what spirituality is for me. I'm all about it, if i start writing all at one go, it will be never end and so i will reflect more on it in future posts.
