We live in a world where everything is based on return value. What will I get if I do that? Similarly what will I get if I am spiritual? Therefore here is a look at the advantages of being spiritual.
- Inner Peace.
- Balance in life.
- Increased energy.
- Clarity of thought.
- Helps in taming anger, envy, ego, jealousy and greediness.
- Makes us humble and kind.
- To learn to love and respect all living beings.
- Better awareness.
- Realizing the futility of sensual pleasures.
But the greatest advantage of being spiritual is in dealing with life challenging situations – in dealing with death, untoward incidents, broken expectations, unfulfilled desires and more.
One should also be careful that being spiritual does not mean one should be a coward or vulnerable. Being spiritual does not mean you should say YES always. Some people by being spiritual develop unwanted attachments. Such attachments are the result of ignorance. Do not fall into such traps.
