A little light heartedness!

Blaise Pascal,  the french philosopher/mathematician/scientist,    argued that the possible prize of eternal happiness has an infinite value and that the probability of entering heaven by leading a virtuous life, no matter how small, is certainly finite.

Therefore, according to Pascal's definition, religion was a game of infinite excitement and one worth playing, because multiplying an infinite prize by a finite probability results in infinity!

Spirituality - the expansion of consciousness

Who or what are we?

We are that of which we are aware or conscious of.
A normal healthly person is conscious of their physical body as well as the physical locality in which they live.
This we experience through the five physical senses, namely sight, sound, taste, smell and touch. 

At a different level to our physical awareness, we are also aware or conscious of that part of our being which is not physical.
Our mental activities - or our thoughts. Included in this awareness are our emotions, namely joy and love, our anxieties as well as all our negative emotions. 

At a  higher level still and as we progress in our Spirituality we become aware or conscious of our connection to something greater than ourselves.

Spirituality is the expansion of consciousness - it is not rational knowledge, or experience. It is felt as intuitive knowledge, or a simple knowing. This is different to a belief!
Spirituality is not dependant upon how religious we are or which path we follow, it is dependant upon consciousness. The wider our conscious awareness expands, the greater is our vision! 
And, only when our consciousness expands to the point where it includes an awareness of the entire Universe do we reach Spiritual enlightenment or cosmic consciousness as it is sometimes called!
