You’ve probably heard of the metaphorical “veil” between our earthly world and the world of spirits.
Well, my sense is that our bodies are the veil. Our physical brains and bodies block many of the myriad incoming signals from Infinity to create our singular perspective here and now. With practice, we can learn to open up our capacity to perceive more, if we so choose.
Is it “bad” that our individualized organism “locks us in” to a singular perspective? Some spiritual approaches would make it seem that way.
I don’t think so, though. It’s one of the reasons we incarnate in the first place. I believe we’re here to learn the wacky balancing act that is being embodied and being all-connected — not to wholesale “transcend” our human limits. I think souls tend to see the limits as kinda the point of being here.
While on Earth, we need to straddle both the paths of living within limitation, and of simultaneously existing in a vast field of soul and spirit, where we are limitless and endlessly connected.
