(Before It's News)

Written by Wes Annac, The Culture of Awareness

Throughout the decades, various spiritual teachers have encouraged us to turn away from the world and everything that constitutes the illusory as opposed to the real.

We’ve been continuously encouraged not to embrace the world as much as we embrace our growing spirituality, and the case has been made that worldly things are temporary and only lead to unhappiness, whereas spirit is permanent and, if ceaselessly focused on, can lead to everlasting bliss.

According to a lot of spiritual teachers, once we get a taste of spiritual bliss, we tend to stop caring about the world. We start to care more about finding spirit and discovering ourselves as God, and the illusory aspects of this reality cease to interest us.
