By listening to the spirit, meditating, praying and reading from the Holy Scriptures daily, we become aware of the awe-inspiring power of the soul and its ability to transform our lives, to change our perceptions of life, and its ability to help us realize our purpose as we walk this earth.
And if we are persistent in our endeavors and keep at it, we may even discover that this purpose, this meaning we seek is infinitely more connected to the spiritual realm than with this material one.
With this realization, and our obedience and submission to the laws that govern the proper maintenance, nourishment and upkeep of the soul, we will begin to achieve the spiritual growth and ultimately the happiness we seek.
This section of Recalling Health.com is dedicated to recalling health to our spirit, and we will be examining such concepts as spirit and soul, the nature of the soul, obligatory prayer and fasting, meditation, life after death, virtues, healing prayers and other subjects related to spiritual growth. We will do this primarily through providing quotations and spiritual teachings on the subjects as abstracted from one or more of the religious traditions.
Recognizing that the All-Loving Creator has endowed each of us with a soul which is
“the first among all created things to declare the excellence of its Creator, the first to recognize His glory, to cleave to His truth, and to bow down in adoration before Him”
we have attempted to keep our commentary to a minimum in this section. Read entire quote in Life After Death section under "" heading.Soul Survival After Death
We would, however, like to begin with an analogy to help you gain an understanding as to why we need to develop our spiritual life and habits while yet on this earthly plane. It seems that when we know the reason we are doing something, it makes it a little easier to do it and to do it more consistently--for without seeing your spiritual growth as a pressing need, it is doubtful you will work on it every day as if your life depended on it—when in fact, the quality of your life in eternity does depend on it.
