The Three Levels Of Existence
Basically, I have a philosophy on the three levels that us humans exist on.--- The Spiritual Level, The Emotional Level, and The Concrete/ Factual Level. I believe that while one soul mainly exists on the Spiritual Level, they are also able to come down to the Emotional and Concrete/ Factual Levels. Someone whose highest level of existence is the Emotional Level, then they can only come down to the concrete/ Factual Level. The following diagram best describes the hierarchy of these three levels of existence:
SPIRITUAL LEVEL
/
/
EMOTIONAL LEVEL
/
/
CONCRETE/ FACTUAL LEVEL
I believe that most humans probably exist on the middle level, the one where we are aware and in tune with our emotions, we listen to our heart and our gut feelings, and do not let our morals, values, or souls be compromised.
Unfortunately though, there are many humans who only believe what is in a written, factual document, never believe for a second in anything that they cannot see with their naked eye, touch, taste, or read about in factual literature. These are people who are overly enamored by political news and worldly events...almost to the point where it takes over and becomes their lives, and they forget who they are anymore. The same can hold true of a Concrete/ Factual person with their job, where their job description actually "becomes" them in all their facets of life and they can only associate themselves with the 9 to 5 job that they perform. Something like where their profession becomes their identity and true identity is lost.
The highest level of existence, that I refer to as the Spiritual existence, is not about going to church or worshiping God. It is about possessing the knowledge that there is more to life than what meets the eye, we are part of some ebb and flow, a mystical and divine energy that surrounds and envelops us. For the most part, people on the Spiritual Level believe in karma and try to put forth good energy into the world. It doesn't matter what religion or creed one possesses, this Spiritual Level is about something more intense and cannot be labeled. I believe that it is the highest level of awareness that one can achieve.
So basically, these are my thoughts, my philosophies and ramblings. You may not agree with this hierarchy at all. And by no means am I saying that one cannot move up to a higher level of awareness. The way of thinking that we possess now is not a lifelong sentence. We hold the future and we can always strive to better ourselves in any way humanly (and super-humanly) possible. May you take my writings with stride. Merry Part and Blessed Be...
