I was with a group of spiritual seekers recently and the topic of spiritual alignment came up. It's an idea that I've taught for a number years and have been practicing again recently.
When I practice spiritual alignment I start with myself: spirit, soul, and body. I go back to a place of meditation, contemplation, or listening/centering prayer where I don't do any speaking.
I recognize the power of my ego for what it is and detach from any self-centeredness connected to. Sometimes, I visualize myself "leaving my body" and floating upward and then looking down on myself. I find this allows the conscious awareness of my spirit to become more dominant and the nervous flow of thoughts and feelings subside.
That's how I get "out of my head" and "into my spirit". For me, I visualize meditation as descending deep into who I am so that I can then rise above my thoughts, feelings, and circumstances.
Once I feel like I have centered myself in that spiritual plane, I then set my intention to call the people, places, and events into my life that are critical to my primary purpose. I do this in my spirit.
I as well sometimes very deliberately say out-loud: I call into my life the people, places, and events that are necessary for me to fulfill my purpose, and I send away any people who are not critical to my purpose to the place where they should be so that they can fulfill their own purpose.
While that might sound awkward, I that find being specific releases me and others and can yield more rapid results.
That kind of affirmation arises from this principle: If I am not aligned correctly I can potentially keep you from aligning correctly too.
I find these types of spiritual practices helpful to re-visit to from time to time and am amazed at the resulting momentum and synergy that can result.
Why not try it right now?
