Bridging the Physical and the Spiritual
When we connect on higher planes of consciousness, we can thrive through deeper understanding and spiritual growth. These higher planes represent realms of pure consciousness, enlightenment, and divine connection. They offer pathways to profound understanding and spiritual enlightenment that transcend our physical limitations.
Meanwhile, the physical plane is where we experience life through our five senses. When we fail to align here, suffering often results because this is where our day-to-day interactions and physical needs must be addressed. The physical plane grounds our existence while we’re alive on Earth.
Bridging these planes is essential work. This bridging process involves spiritual practices like meditation, yoga, prayer, and contemplation that can connect individuals to higher realms of consciousness. It’s about aligning your personal energy with higher intentions to experience deeper levels of connection.
This work isn’t easy because our ego functions as a pain-avoidance mechanism that keeps us locked in patterns that blind us to our deepest pains. To truly bridge these planes, we must be willing to face our lower-level egoic pain to access higher levels of consciousness. As Beatrice Chestnut notes, “You have to deal with your pain to move beyond the ego”.
The journey between planes represents the soul’s progression from the physical world to higher spiritual realms, with each plane offering unique experiences that contribute to our growth and understanding. By working to bridge these gaps, we can experience both personal transformation and contribute to collective evolution.
