Choosing the right Spiritual path.

 In every day life we see certain people constantly engage themselves in the spiritual activities.Most likely they will be attached to some spiritual guru, Ashram, or combination of spirituality and religious belief system. As these gurus will have access to the deeper intelligence, which is difficult to understand by ordinary folks, but they will be capable of psychologically  luring  and making us to dedicate our entire life and wealth to them and their laxurious lifestyles.

      If we observe these gurus, they would  have designed their courses like holidaying or relaxing sessions. It will have bit of everything yoga, chanting, ayurveda, meditation, breathing exercises, bland food inside and easy access to normal restaurants outside, offline and online Shopping. They will have different courses and accomodations based on our affordability. They will charge us before entering and encourage us for giving and collect donations. As I have gone through this entire process and ultimately understood spirituality is nothing but understanding our own body and mind through methodical observation and liberate ourselves from the vast energy of craving hidden deep inside the subconscious mind. Points to be noted before choosing the right path.

1.They Should not charge us upfront like selling a product.

2.The practice Should liberate us from craving .

3.Should be pertaining to our own mind and body without resorting to  chanting,  repeating manthra,observing light or imagining god .

4.It Should not be attached to religion or religious rituals. Our aim is to come out of blind believes and rituals.

5.Our practice is to achieve mastery over ourselves not to idolize the guru and getting attached to him or Ashram.

6 We Should not feel good when we visit Ashram, see the guru and his talks.

7.Last but not the least we Should start accessing our deeper intelligence and become like a guru we follow.
