Are you one of those hundreds of people who are trying to find the security of permanence in life and an inherent spirituality?
Spurred by our ambitions, we pursue various goals all through our lives. We aspire to something all the time, we always want to achieve something. This restless rush is instigated by our fear that we are still not what we want to be. We wish to find the security of permanence in our life. We would like to find what is beyond the world of constant change. In order to do so, we become spiritual seekers.
Here are 19 Keys to find the security of permanence in the life
Key 1.
The first step of spiritual seeking we start to look for enlightenment, Self-recognition in the world of shapes and forms (that is, outside ourselves) in the hope of thus reaching the state of permanent happiness.

Key 2.
We intend to find a dogma, a great Master, an elevating spiritual experience that expands our Consciousness. If it is not found here on Earth, we will be looking for it in the other world, in the heaven of a religion.
Key 3.
We use the mind as a means of spiritual search. It is through the mind that the Ego intends to understand what is beyond mind and forms. The mind in this way prepares the mental image of enlightenment, seeking, happiness, etc.
Key 4.
These mental images motivate us to make efforts at implementing the mental images at the level of daily life, to make these images the cornerstones of our life.
Key 5.
Achieving spiritual objectives, however, affords only momentary satisfaction for us, so after achieving one specific goal, relentlessness returns, urging us to start working for new objectives. The mind produces new mental images and seeking starts all over again.

Key 6.
We then go on seeking, until we eventually become tired of the process, and finally recognize its true nature.
Key 7.
We stop and abandon spiritual seeking. We recognize that all the objectives we have so far been looking for outside ourselves, are only found within ourselves.
Key 8.
We will stop when we recognize the activities of the mind and refuse to follow it any longer.
Key 9.
We realize that with the help of the mind we will not be able to surpass the mind.
Key 10.
We will experience that stopping is the inactive moment of the mind, the silence between thoughts. In that silence, we will experience the Consciousness without forms, and recognize that we are in fact the Presence without thoughts. We then leave behind the spiritual seeker, with all the accumulated knowledge and lofty spiritual experience.
Key 11.
This is the beginning of an inner journey, beyond the mind.

Key 12.
Once we have started our journey, we leave the world behind and abandon everything that has hampered us in our progress. We give up unimportant things in order to be able to concentrate our attention exclusively on the important ones.
Key 13.
The awaking is the awakening of the Consciousness to its own existence through the form and shape that we formerly identified with ourselves. After the great clean up, nothing remains but the empty space.
Key 14.
But if we examine that space closer, we find that it is full of Consciousness, which is the inner peace, quiet and tranquility. We then realize that we are at home.
