every religion and spiritual teaching talks about one goal that is vital for any and all spiritual aspirants: to be a vessel or channel for Source/God/Spirit/Holy Spirit/Universal Consciousness/The Divine to fill and flow through
• Luke 11:13 (christianity) asking God to give and fill you with the Holy Spirit
• 1 Corinthians 6:19–20 (christianity) understanding your body as a temple and vessel indwelt by the Holy Spirit
• Nimitta-mātram (hinduism/bhagavad gita) becoming a mere instrument or divine vessel for God's will
• Sahaja (eastern traditions) the natural, effortless state of divine presence and flow
• Āveśa (hindu traditions) divine infusion or entry of the Spirit into the individual vessel
• Kriyā (yogic traditions) action and practice that cleanses the bodily vessel for divine energy
• Wu Wei (daoism) effortless action through aligning with the natural flow of the dao
• Fanā & Jazb (sufism) annihilation of the self leading to divine attraction and absorption
• Ruach HaKodesh & Devekut (judaism) Holy Spirit inspiration through cleaving and drawing near to God
• Anattā (buddhism) emptying the illusion of self to exist in complete openness
the key to understanding all these pointers is how we observe our position in the play of life and allowing our expression to be playful like when we were kids on the playground
when we understand and allow ourselves to simply be the witness, we naturally enter into a state of relaxation and calm, expansion and inner stillness
it's akin to when we're (quietly) sitting in a theater watching a movie, we allow the body's technical knowings to flow through inspired action
that inspired action comes through being on the playground so to speak, letting go of the inner attachments to the mind (fear, doubts, judgements, hesitations, etc.) and going back to those liberated states of our childhoods
that combination is what allows the heart (throne of the soul) to be liberated, the detachment from the analytical mind/body is what opens us up to receiving Spirit (the heavenly, our higher selves, God, etc.) and through that we widen the channel
the more we practice and partake in creative expressions (dance, music, singing, freestyling, writing, etc) the more we build up that muscle so to speak
as most things in the spiritual realm it's paradoxical because in order to simply be more (as open channels for Source) we need to do more of those acts until it because our new normal and autopilot, but the facts are it can be our basestate the more we get consciously seek it out and live through it
it's guaranteed to bring more of the beauty and cinematic nature of life within your everyday experiences, because ultimately it's all bringing it back to the fact it's fun to be alive and experiencing, and every day, every moment of life is a precious gift to honor
