Spiritual Development
Spiritual development is our ongoing process of inner awakening. It is our opportunity to become more resonant with our inner sense of self that goes beyond our everyday existence, of connecting with some universal truths that resonate for us. It means going beyond our mind and our ego and discovering a deeper sense of who we really are. Spiritual development is the ongoing journey of realizing new possibilities: possibilities within ourselves, possibilities created through our connection with others, and possibilities the universe holds for us that we cannot yet see. Spiritual development helps us find our identity, meaning, and purpose. It is ongoing and personal.
