Founder, Dr. Masters’ Weekly Mystical Insights

The deepest of all relationships that one can have with another person is spiritual. The coming together and bonding of two souls far exceeds the merger of minds and bodies. What is exchanged on a spiritual level can form a bond that can be eternal.

In fact, it may be that some people you have met in this lifetime, with whom you have felt a deep spiritual rapport, are souls with whom you spiritually bonded in previous lives. If such bonding can exist from one lifetime to another, it certainly underscores how very powerful a spiritual bond can be. Such spiritual bonds can be experienced between immediate family members, close friends, a spiritual student and teacher, and, most decisively, between a man and woman as lovers or spouses.

In recent years, the world has advanced enormously in technology—like the proverbial snowball rolling downhill, building momentum as it goes. Outwardly, society is being transformed from what it once was to the extreme, fast pace of today. However, while the physical sciences are accelerating, human beings and their consciousness remain basically the same. This brings about the dilemma of greater technological power in the hands of unaware souls with frailty and the propensity for violence and inhumane acts.

The need for human transformation from base to higher consciousness has existed throughout the ages. However, at no time in human history has so much technology been available with the ability to destroy all of humanity in a matter of minutes. A few miscalculations on the part of the consciousness of a small number of people—or even one—could result in the annihilation of the entire human race.

Prayer can be successful if the principle underlying its practice is understood. Most people believe in the power of prayer. Thus, you could say that most people believe in a God or the agents of God—such as angels or minor deities—to make their prayers a reality.

When thinking of prayer, most people think of formalized prayer, such as when a person retreats alone, clasps their hands, or looks upward and begins asking. The truth is that people are praying all the time, for all thought is prayer.

Sexuality and Spirituality

There is a powerful relationship between sexuality and spirituality in the human psyche. Sexuality is not simply a strong biological urge; it has a spiritual reality. Down through the ages, mystics have known and taught that sexuality is the outer physical manifestation of a spiritual urge to have mystical union with God, or to reestablish an intimate relationship between the human soul and the eternal Spirit.

Certainly, through recently recorded time, sexuality has been degraded by the spiritually unaware. The need for reconnecting to God is so strong an urge in some, without an awareness of the real truth underlying their desire, they are often driven to the lowest forms of sexual expression.

Perhaps the greatest contributor to ill health in society today is stress. Psychosomatic medicine estimates that 70% to 90% of all illnesses are functional, dependent upon one’s state of mind and emotions, rather than organic, based on a virus of some kind.

The tension and anxiety connected with daily life in a modern city can be enormous. How you handle such stress can make the difference between your being a healthy person, or not. Over a prolonged period of time, stress can lead to chronic disorders or affect the immune system’s ability to fight off disease.

What a difference it is to know that what Christ referred to as “the Kingdom of Heaven” does exist! Imagine the impact such knowledge could have on how people live their lives. The value systems of so many people would be profoundly changed if they actually knew that life is eternal and that everyone goes on beyond this life.

It is one thing to blindly accept any theology that teaches that life continues, but quite another to know firsthand that your life will continue beyond your physical body. The vast majority of religious theologies do, indeed, teach that life is eternal, but people are asked to believe on faith alone.

Is it real love or is it imagined love? Have you ever asked yourself this question? Many people have, and numerous others are currently making this very same self-inquiry. The question may be asked under varying circumstances, such as when contemplating a new relationship, in the midst of a current relationship, or in retrospect, when reflecting on a previous relationship.

And why is this such an important question? The reason is that love, above all else in life, is the single most important source of happiness, apart only from one’s relationship to God.

So many relationships and marriages end because one or both partners could not distinguish real love from imagined love. Real love is from the heart—from the very soul of a person—and it is lasting. In all relationships there are disagreements and bumps in the road in communication, but in the case of real love, such dips in a relationship do not diminish the love. Real love can override any temporary negativity between two people.
