Spirituality Is Psychology
Psychology: the study of the human mind and its functions that affects behaviour.
Who is the psychologist?
Consciousness.
We are consciousness and, as such, the psychologist, although this is limited due to distracted awareness. Distraction is the reason why we function on a basic level; we chop wood, fetch water, eat, chat, sleep, chop wood … all due to believing that we are just a body which is made to function by a mind. The collection of memories in the mind that we call ‘I’, ‘me’, ‘self’, obscures our higher function.
Consciousness is the essence of mind, the live cognisant atmosphere, while thoughts and memories are abstracts in the mind; it is these which affect our behaviour. That’s how we function as ordinary sentient creatures.
Spirituality is simply consciousness
– the interior of silent awareness –
that is realised as pure knowingness.
