4 Laws For Spirituality

It's said that there is a short moment in life when you feel more lost than ever. When a meeting happens. A meeting with yourself; With your depths, your fears and your soul.

If you experience this transforming moment it is not by chance; It's because there's something you need to understand.

Spirituality goes beyond the material and earthly. It is not a religion or a doctrine; Spirituality is to take care of ourselves. To let our hearts jump over the gap our minds created and to care for our values humbly.

THESE ARE THE FOUR LAWS FOR SPIRITUALITY FROM HINDU PHILOSOPHY

1. EVERY PERSON WHO COMES INTO YOUR LIFE IS THE RIGHT PERSON

"Every person who comes into your life is unique. They always leave a piece of themselves and take a bit of you with you. Some bring a lot, but nobody will leave without leaving anything. This is a clear proof that two souls can not find each other by chance."

Jorge Luis Borges

No one comes into our lives by chance. Everyone around us is there for some reason, even poisonous people. With each exchange and every moment, we all contribute to each other in some way.

We live in a world of gray zones; Nothing is black or white. We are not always teachers or always students. We all add something positive, although it is through a negative move. For example, something we can not handle or something that hurts us.

We are always flashlights in the dark. Some people are more representative than others. But we all have something to say, without exception. Over time, we learn to be grateful for the stones we strolled along the way. Those who complicate our lives or those who support us loyally have something to learn us.

Everything, absolutely everything, adds something to life. That is why we should maintain a positive view of others and do not underestimate any lessons learned.

2. WHAT HAPPENED WAS THE ONLY THING THAT COULD HAPPEN

Nothing that happens in our lives could have happened in another way. What happened to us was the only thing that could happen. That is the right thing at the right time, and that is from this we should extract a specific opinion. We are used to thinking about what could have happened. The habit of creating hypothetical situations in which we acted differently and thus had different results.

Any change causes unpredictable situations. Therefore, we should accept that what happened already is in the past. There are no other possibilities. All our actions create a wave effect around us that determines our path.

Let's not be worried about what we could do differently. There is a time and place for everything, and a certain amount of time is required to learn every necessary homework. As they say: you have to crawl before you can walk and go before you can run. You can not skip the necessary steps in life.

3. WHEN SOMETHING BEGINS, IT'S THE RIGHT TIME FOR IT TO BEGIN

Do not wait for the perfect moment, catch the moment and make it perfect.

Everything begins at the right time, neither sooner nor later. The new things in our lives appear because we draw them to us and because we are prepared to observe and enjoy them. Understand this and accept that when life sets something in your way, you'll enjoy it.

4. WHEN SOMETHING IS OVER IT'S OVER

Let it go. Don't hold on to someone or anyone. Everything in your life has its opportunity and its reason to exist.

We tend to be bound to an endless number of stories and feelings. Saying goodbye hurts. But when something ends, it's just masochism to take it with us. It generates great discomfort as well as many dependencies and uncertainties.

Going forward is the best option for enriching your life and avoiding suffering. Remember that the most easily-influenced person you interact with on a daily basis is yourself. Be careful about what you tell yourself and let you flow into life.
