Your Spiritual Side

I cannot emphasize these ideas enough. Truehumans.com will bring them up time and time again until it becomes impossible. We are prohuman and will continue to focus on those spiritual qualities that make us who we truly are: Spiritual Beings with a physical body. We are NOT, and never will be, anything other than the Sons and Daughters of God.

Our spirituality is under attack, threatened by technology fully capable of replacing the true human being as we know it. We are made in the image and likeness of God. You cannot improve on our design. It is both physical and spiritual, and the current trend is destined to destroy our divinity, our direct connection to the Source of all there is. 

We are spiritual beings clothed in physical form, yet most of our lives unfold with our attention fixed firmly on the material world. We chase achievements, possessions, and sensory experiences while barely glancing at the luminous interior dimension that shapes the true quality of our existence. This makes us extremely vulnerable to this threat!

It is the spiritual aspect, the unseen, the eternal, the subtle currents of consciousness, that determines the highest expression of our lives. We study the laws that govern the physical realm but ignore those that govern the nonphysical, even though those laws influence everything we think, feel, and become.

But what if the quality of our lives could shift dramatically simply by placing our attention on the right things?

Christ taught, “Know thyself,” for to know oneself is to know the universe. “The kingdom of heaven is within,” he said, pointing not to a distant paradise but to an inner reality accessible to any human being who learns to see. 

Could a deliberate turning inward, an intentional cultivation of spiritual awareness, lead us to higher states of consciousness? Could we, through disciplined practice, learn to enter a state where we are directly, consciously connected with the One True God?

The answer is a resounding yes. And when that connection opens, nothing remains hidden.

Throughout history, the practices that led to this inner kingdom were carefully guarded. The keys to awakening were secretly passed on.

In his youth, Jesus was schooled in the mystical ways of spiritual awakening by the Essenes, a secret order of Jewish mystics who understood the depth of human spirituality. “Jesus increased in wisdom and stature…” (Luke 2:25). Later, as Christ, he taught the importance of spiritual practice.

“Look within.”  

“Know thyself.” 

“The kingdom of heaven is inside you.” 

“Be still and know that I Am God.” 

He taught true spiritual thought, strengthening the inner spiritual mechanisms and raising human consciousness to higher levels of awareness. Jesus was a spiritual guide, a guru, exposing the hidden stepping stones to enlightenment.

Jesus shared the sacred knowledge, but only with those prepared to understand: “He who has ears to hear, let him hear.” 

His words hinted at a higher knowledge that could only be grasped by those who had evolved spiritually to the point of receiving it.

For centuries, these sacred practices passed quietly from master to apprentice, from family to small group, some religious, some not. Many who practiced these teachings discovered too quickly that institutional power grows uneasy when ordinary people begin accessing extraordinary spiritual clarity. 

The fate of the Cathars is a stark example: Gnostics who sought to live the teachings of Christ directly, they cultivated a profound inner spirituality, and were brutally erased during the Second Crusade. Their destruction sent a clear message: the Church feared what it could not control.

Thus, these practices moved underground, surviving in secret societies and esoteric lineages that sought to preserve them. For if any person could commune with God through their own consciousness, without permission, without mediation, how could the Church maintain its authority?

The Cathars, the Templars, and many hidden schools across the ages practiced teachings that today would be recognized as forms of yoga, not merely the physical postures, but the complete science of mind, body, and spirit. They sought harmony between the seen and unseen, and through disciplined practice, they awakened capacities that ordinary life keeps dormant.

Spiritual practice is how we fight our extinction as an extraordinary race of divine beings.

Imagine this: you close your eyes. You inhale slowly. You exhale even slower. For a brief, trembling moment, something shifts within you, your awareness expands, softens, deepens. And suddenly the presence of God is no longer an idea, but a living reality within you… and you within it.
