Reasons Why You Have Access to the Spiritual Realm

The beauty with the spiritual and metaphysical realm is it’s open to everyone. 

There isn’t a single person in existence or has ever existed who hasn’t felt the touch of this energy once in their lives. It flows in and out of everyone, woven like a tapestry, and changes with the flow of the World.

Everything in life is connected with everything else. There is nothing that isn’t in this force’s grasp. Even if you can’t feel it doesn’t mean it’s not there. 

A sad theme I continue to see is people who call themselves “ascended masters” or “awakened”. It suddenly blocks spirituality from you, and implies that it must be learned by someone who “knows” more than you. 

The catch: they’re also human.

No more or no less than you. So then, how could it be possible for these people to know more than you in terms of your own individual spiritual connection?

The answer? Find out below. 

Gated spirituality

It’s like the analogy of St. Peter at the gate. 

He looks your name up in his book and decides there and then if you can enter. Like, what?

There’s no difference with spiritual gurus. Here, purchase my product/service and I’ll teach you how to become connected, man. It’s ludicrous. 

By simply describing oneself as “ascended” or “a master” or even “awakened”, is a joke. One that they play on themselves. That would be like a child boasting he has a better toy than you.

Another analogy here is confidence. 

A truly self confident person does not need to boast about his confidence. The fact is, he knows he has it and doesn’t need to be a peacock about it. If someone is interested in him, he will spark a conversation with them. Or walk in a room head held high. 

Compared to the unconfident person who needs to frame himself like the above. You can tell by the way he talks and struts about that it’s a ruse. A smokescreen to hide deeper insecurities or trauma. 

And funnily enough, what is another name for the devil?

The deceiver. 

By shouting from atop their stone pillars down to other, non ascended people, it positions them in as an authority. It looks good from the outside, yet from the inside is a deception. A smokescreen.

You see, if they were really “ascended”, they’d do what Buddha did and clock out. Also, did you ever read of Buddha or Jesus treating others as below them? 

Real masters are like ghosts. They exist in the deepest depths of solitude or are hidden within society. And those who truly “ascend”, leave this cycle. But first, your physical vessel must pass on. 

The way you locate masters is not by looking. If you’re open, spiritually speaking, a mentor with vast amounts of knowledge will find you. 

Barring access for spiritual people doesn’t help

By boldly claiming their status, these people accidentally (or on purpose) put a lock and a key in front of us. 

Like the pearly gates, you have to jump through hoops in order to pass.

• In one case, you must jump through hoops of a rule book and be a good Samaritan.
• The other, you have to buy or follow someone to become connected. 

And I’m also not saying these things are bad by their nature either. Whatever religion you subscribe to, there is deep and ancient knowledge within. That acts as a compass to navigate stormy waters. 

And following someone with more knowledge than you is a beneficial thing to do. 

This article is written to describe another take on these things, so don’t get mad. 

These hoops are external to you. They’re being imposed by someone outside of your soul. Which ultimately means they are chosen by others who may not have pure intentions or dealing with not wholly positive entities. 

Uh oh, looks like you’re going to be disconnected unless you buy my thing.

It places a strain on those who desperately want something more in life. People who are in dark and vulnerable places; who’re easily manipulated.

It filters out those who truly want to become more and then makes people believe that something outside of themselves will fix an internal issue.

The obvious repercussion is this selective process of helping others stalls one of God’s goals. 

To connect as many people as possible. 

In the process, these people are in effect exploiting people with good intentions. And also frame spirituality as us and them. 

Which it isn’t.

What Does Being Spiritual Mean?

This question is so large that you’d end up with a tome like the bible. But I’ll describe a small part in reference to the above. 

Spirituality, is the internalised understanding that there is something more to the physical reality and that we are deeply connected to it. 

We sense that there is more to life than what we know and that we’re connected to it. Right out of the gate, it says nothing about needing to unlock or gain access to spirituality. 

We’re already there and connected to it.

Straight away, the pedestal that the “ascended masters” preach from, start to crumble. The reality of this reality is, we’re all equal in terms of a connection to Source energy.

Ever wondered why some people begin to feel this connection on their own, with no guidance? 

It’s not that they were helped by an external force claiming to deliver them! It was a deeply resonant signal from God to move in this direction. Their gut was the driving purpose behind the change. 

You can think of this connection like a string that flows in and around us, up to universal energy. It flows in and out and between everyone, everything, everywhere. 

I know it sounds convoluted, but once you feel yourself being dropped back into the ocean of consciousness, even for a moment, you’ll understand this connection. 

One of negative energy’s favourite tactics is to sever your power. It does this by fooling you into believing you haven’t got any. Yet, being a human is testament to the power you hold.

We have the ability to change and affect the world around us. We build, we destroy, we design and we can choose. Sure, not everything is pretty, but it’s still an energy we can tap into. Good or Bad. 

Negativity can only steal. It cannot self actualise. And so, it harvests energy from others in order to become a more powerful force. 

What I mean is:

YOU HAVE A CHOICE. YOU CAN PROGRAM YOURSELF. YOU CAN CHOOSE THE DESTINATION AND THE STEPPING STONES TO GET THERE.

If you believe or are deceived into the idea that an external force is needed for spiritual growth. It’s most likely a form of negativity. By accepting that spiritual energy flows into us daily, you can begin the process of becoming more connected. 

Conclusion

Of course, when you make the decision above. Real mentors will make themselves known. They won’t tell you what they are. You’ll simply understand that, they understand this.

In the realm of spirituality, the voice is subtle. It whispers to you, and no more. It doesn’t need to shout, scream or make a scene.

The energy is so powerful that people can feel it within themselves. Some will ignore it, others will wait on the fence and a minority will take action towards the growth.

But the fact remains, it flows continuously in everything. The only change is the signs that are placed in front of you.

For me, I see synchronicities almost daily.

For others it could be prophetic dreams, Deja vu, gut feelings, sudden inspiration, voices from God, clear idea of purpose. The list goes on. 

It’s open to us all. The first step is accepting we’re part of a greater whole. 

This article is not meant to throw hate at anyone. It’s meant as a way to explain and express something I’ve seen in the spiritual space. 

I believe it’s about time to change this. There is no gatekeeping, only guidance. I also believe that selling services/products isn’t evil. It’s a part of life.

What is, however, is when someone acts holier than thou or is deceptive about their intentions. 

So to clarify, there are spiritual mentors who are out there and doing good for people. In guiding and teaching people. When you meet one, you’ll know the difference, assuming you read through the article.
