Spiritual enlightenment can inspire people to connect with others, improve their lives and relationships, and expand their thoughts about themselves and the world. When people become enlightened, they feel full of love and compassion. They might also become more understanding and at peace with certain parts of themselves that previously caused pain or anxiety. Enlightenment comes from within: it's not a state you achieve that then remains static over time. It's an ongoing process, one that should help you learn to live better every day while offering insights into the way your mind works along the way. However, there are many ways to get closer to achieving spiritual enlightenment. Here are some of them:
1) Meditation
The practice of being present at the moment, focusing on your thoughts and feelings, can lead to insights that help you better understand yourself and others. In meditation, you learn to let go of judgmental thoughts that often keep you from focusing on what matters most. You can then turn your attention toward living with a sense of love and compassion for others as well as yourself.
There are many forms of meditation that can help to achieve spiritual enlightenment. For instance, meditation can take the form of yoga exercises. In this case, yoga stimulates every area (both inside and out) through movement, stretching, breathing exercises (pranayama), and meditation, which results in increased strength, better balance, improved mental clarity, and greater peace of mind. Yoga also encourages you to quiet your mind while focusing on the present moment. That way of thinking can help reduce stress and keep anxiety at bay, so you can become more aware of what's important.
Prayer
Prayer is not limited to organized religion (though it may be most frequently associated with corporate worship) and is an important part of many non-believers' daily lives. People ask for help when they pray: sometimes in moments of crisis like accidents or natural disasters, but often in times less dramatic and life-threatening, such as asking the Most High Power(God or other power that you believe in) to watch over a sick loved one or bring them safely home from war overseas. Prayers are also used to thank God for blessings and ask for his favor in the future. People's specific words when they pray do not matter, provided they use prayer to connect their minds with something greater than themselves.
Selfless Service
Self-service refers to helping others without expecting anything in return. Everyone should have some time for doing selfless service out of kindness, sympathy, or pity, regardless of whether you believe in the power of the Most High or not because it doesn't depend on religion, faith, or belief system. Selfless service makes a person feel better both psychologically and spiritually and gain a feeling of being useful to someone or something non-existent otherwise from their perspective. There are different ways to do selfless service, including:
vVolunteering at a local charity center to help in donating food and money
vDonating old but unusable clothes, furniture, and other household items at the nearest church, mosque, synagogue or other worship centers
vHelping neighbors with their daily chores like cleaning, babysitting, and accompanying them to doctor's appointments
Living a life of service benefits others, but it can also benefit you by helping you concentrate less on yourself and more on what's important in your life. That is not about denying yourself happiness or success; rather, it's about trying to make a positive difference in this world and letting that feeling of accomplishment help shape who you are and how you feel about your place in society.
