The Discipline Of the Spirit

Part two: Disconnected from Life

Welcome to the Discipline Of The Spirit!

What is life? Is it the culmination of all things that are material and the full range of emotions that demand obedience? Is it family, friends and a social context that constitutes happiness, acceptance and love? Is it achievement, success, accumulation, or stimulation?

If life is a cornucopia of all these aspects, then why are so many individuals unhappy? Why do they seek pleasure in drugs - no matter how spiritual their delusions are - sex, adventures, toys, debt, addictions, fantasies, and the dark side of all things unnatural? Life has a reason and it is not what you think it is . . .
