The power of spiritual guidance is innate within us. The person who understands this phenomenon unleashes the infinite potential. It is intuitive in nature and a natural response to implicit apprehensions. Intuitive act is a survival mechanism available to living organisms.
Tendency to question illogical rituals
That was the age of questioning illogical beliefs. When I was studying in high school, I used to question the irrational beliefs of religious priests and illogical rituals of the elders. There was always clash of beliefs with others on various aspects of life.
My teenage mysterious experience
At that time, I had a mysterious experience which was not resolved until recently. We had a buffalo, which we domesticated for milk. One day when we woke up, we found the buffalo was missing. My uncle and myself, searched for it in near by locations, but we could not trace it. While our anguish was growing one of our neighbors advised us to visit the person, who was known to be a ‘tantrik’(who performs tantra). I was infuriated and lashed out on their illogical spiritual guidance. However, my uncle who had a belief on such acts, pacified me by saying “let us test it”.
What Tantrik Did?
I followed him reluctantly with an intention of disproving such mindless beliefs. The ‘tantrik’ closed the room and put a candle at the centre of the room. He lit the candle and behind it, he placed an object which was reflecting the light of the candle. He asked us to sit in front of the candle and instructed us to observe the object behind the candle, which displaying flames of candle. While he was chanting certain mantras I observed, but found nothing as it was reflecting only candle’s light. However, my uncle had said to be seen the image of buffalo, which I brushed aside as illusion. My uncle believing this, visited a near by the village, from where the buffalo was originally bought. To our surprise, we found the buffalo there. In Indian villages such as scenes are very common. Such as spiritual guidance appear to be illogical and unscientific to the rational minds.
Spiritual Guidance is intuitive nature of our mind
We experience some moments in our life in which we become a supreme version of ourselves. When we perceive and encounter life threatening situations, a huge amount of energy releases, and we react like the force of Tsunami. Such uncommon and unusual behavior surprises us; we also hear spontaneous remissions in cancer patients, psychic healing and miracles of serendipity. All these experiences indicate that we are guided by a force other than our conscious mind. We may call it the spiritual guidance or God.
All our internal organs are not under the control of our conscious mind. Heart beat, blood circulation, digestion, kidney functioning is not under the control of our conscious mind. We are certainly guided by the power of intuition, which is nothing but a heightened state of awareness within us. In my uncles ‘tantrik’ experience, perhaps, we were assisted by the spiritual guidance which is intuitive in nature.
We need to realize that we are assisted by the spiritual guidance which is intuitive nature of our mind. If we start listening to the signals of intuitive mind, not influenced by conscious mind, miracles happen in our lives. We must be aware that 99%of our body functioning is not determined by our conscious mind. The spiritual guidance within us unleashes our infinite potential one’s, we start listening it.
The institution of God and Devil is result of our spiritual guidance

Different personality types originate from different personality traits. personality traits are individual specific, and they are learn t responses. In a same situation different people respond differently depending upon their attitudes.
4 types of personalities
Before understanding and defining what is personality? What is spirituality? Let us go through the following 4 common personality types.
Abeque was very happy and joyous about her relationship with spouse. She was leading a blissful married life. Her happiness came to an end with the sudden demise of her spouse. She exchanged her happiness and enjoyment with sadness and frustration. She was not attentive in her job; she was always remembering her spouse and crying. Leading normal life becomes hard day by day, stressful life caused disease and her health also deteriorated, she was so attached with her spouse. His memories continue to haunt her mind. Her personality type was Introversion,sensing, feeling and judging (ISFJ).
Aamy was a victim of mob rivalry, as she lost her beloved husband. Children were young and she had no elders to support her family. She realizes that leading life of worry leads her nowhere, and therefore, she decided to forget the past and focus all her energies in upbringing of these children. Her efforts yielded a good harvest as children were grown up and on their way to their independence. She started an organization to benefit suffering of single women. Organization developed inspiring many women. She is commanding respect as Society recognized her resilience and reputation. Detachment from her past transforms her life into a fulfilling woman. Now she is leading meaningful life. Her personality type was extroversion, intuition, thinking, and perceiving (EITP).
Aaron was highly qualified and working in a big company. Company’s growth is scaling new Peaks with his induction. He becomes the kingpin of the company’s activities. In spite of gaining good name in the organization, he was not fully happy and always felt that his potential was under utilized. His deep longing to lead an organization on his own could not be fulfilled as the unconscious childhood fears continuous to haunt him. His soul was restless to being identified with his past. He was aware of his success in the organization, and he was also confident of articulating human relations. However, the passionate past is over powering the rationale present. His personality type was introversion, intuition, thinking and perceiving (IITP).
Abbie was introversion, intuition, thinking and perceiving (IITP). was a housewife, highly qualified and intelligent. She had sacrificed her service to be with her husband, and she was busy in upbringing children, taking care of her spouse. After children were grown up, she developed feelings of uselessness of her qualification and knowledge. She had a desire to start a business on her own. She does not want to depend on her spouse for money. However, she could not put her ideas into action. Her knowledge was out played by the childhood belief that business was unsuitable for women. Her childhood limiting beliefs hold her back from proceeding further. Her personality type was introversion, sensing, feeling and judging.
Modern women efforts to unidentified herself from gender bias liberated her from the bondage of gender based discrimination.She entered all spheres of social and economic activity of the people. She is now becoming an equal partner in nation building. She confined her gender identify only with maternity. She feels her uniqueness as a human being and contributing member of the society.
personality vs spirituality
Based on the above 4 personality types, we can define personality and spirituality as under;
Personality is a process of attachment. Spirituality is a process of detachment. Personality is identification and solidification of past beliefs. Spirituality is non identification and de-solidification of past thoughts and beliefs. Personality is a process of toxicity and spirituality is a process of detoxification.
Identification with the caste is the biggest problem and stumbling block for socially disadvantaged sections of people in India. This illusion is social hurdle and becomes a stumbling block for the progress of these people. Passionate attachment of identity with race, caste, region and religion, for others produces a variety of evils. We don’t learn lessons from our history. Excessive attachment of race by Hitler caused irreparable loss of human life by persecution of 6 million Jews. Separate state movements producing hatred in the minds of the people.
Passionate attachment of longstanding and outdated beliefs, halt our progress. Preservation of such feelings by us lead nowhere. Suffering and unhappiness is resulting of solidification of our personality. Unless we break open this and get liberated by ourselves, we cannot achieve our full potential. Personality is a process of attachment, bondage and identification with limiting beliefs and, whereas Spirituality is a process of liberation from bondage, identification and exploration of full potential.
Religion and spirituality
spirituality is not a process of discovery of God. Religion tries to interpret the truth. However, truth cannot be interpretive. Truth must be experienced personally. Spirituality is breaking the limitations and experiencing the power within us. Religion is a belief system and, whereas spirituality is experiencing the truth. Religion is theoretical in nature and, whereas spirituality is practical in nature. Spirituality is thus a highest means for human enhancement. It is the only way for attaining right personality type
When you are powered by spiritual guidance the quest for right personality types does not exist.

God or Devil is a state of mind.
The philosophy of religion or the institute of God and Devil is the human’s greatest discovery. It is intended for regulation of human mind for exploring their potential. God or Devil is not a physical object. It is a state of mind. We are all misled by the notion of god is an object. Go through the following questions to determine which mental state of mind you are in? Discover whether you are in a Godly state or Devilish state? God asked us to love our fellow man and to be compassionate for the needy. Devil asked us to hate our fellow man and to be indifferent towards the needy. Are we loving our fellow man or indifferent towards the needy? God asked us to face the problems of life with courage and confidence. Devil asked us to face the problems of life with fear and diffidence. Are we confident in our pursuits or doubtful always? God asked us to experience our creative capacity and lead life of joy and celebration. Devil asked us to be doubtful and lead life of misery and frustration. Are we leading life of joy and celebration or leading life of misery and frustration?
Heaven or Hell is contrasting energies within us
God and Devil; heaven and hell are a state of mind. The philosophy of religion or the concept of heaven and hell is created by the humans. It was created to mirror contrasting states of human mind. It was intended to balance the contrasting energies. Its goal is to control the unstable mind and to harness its potential to the fullest extent. However, unfortunately, the philosophy of religion created differences among the man kind. Various religions fighting among themselves based on the letter rather than the spirit of it. The philosophy of religion is abused.
Godly state is feeling oneness with others
God is love. Love includes all the people. God is a belief. Belief drives the fear and doubts away from us. There is no place in the god’s world for egoistic behavior. Love and compassion form part of life. Devil is fear and doubt. Devil is an ego. Ego creates a comparison. It creates superiority feeling or inferiority feeling. Devil is indifference. Indifference helps the exploiter and ravages the victim.
Mediocrity is a devilish state
We are ignorant of the fact that the god is within us. We are filled with creative capacity. However, our life is marked with mediocrity. We set impotent goals, not match with our true potential. We lead indiscipline life. Frustration and unhappiness predominate in our life.
Abuse of the philosophy of God
The concept of “God is love” is remained as quotation. It is not translated into actions. The philosophy of religion is being abused. We preach love and compassion, but we are indifferent towards the suffering of our fellow people. We say we are believers, but we are doubtful in our pursuits. We learnt to care about ourselves only, the concept of love and compassion had lost its relevance. We become so indifferent towards our fellowman. The concept of corruption and Nepotism are our cherished practices. The starvation cries of the people are not reaching our ears. We are leading selfish and indifferent life? We are moving away from the God
The goal of philosophy of God is happiness. know the secret of happiness.
