"Ask and you shall receive. Seek and you will find. Knock and the door will open for you." Jesus Christ
Being a normal human being, I have been seriously engaging myself in search of prosperity, truth, happiness and freedom for a long time. This search began when I was 15 to 16 years old boy. I left my home, my parents, my village mainly to become somebody great and successful. I moved out of my parents' house purely to pursue my goal to become rich though it was hard to leave behind my loved ones in search of prosperity, success, truth, happiness and freedom.
You may ask me whether I have succeeded in realizing my dreams. I will tell you the truth, I haven't accomplished my goal yet. However I do want to see myself enjoying the wealth, abundance and happiness in my life. I am busy searching, reading, analysing and practising certain laws to make sure that what other successful writers and entrepreneurs who have written and spoken great stuffs work or not.
At times, I find the teachings and insights of others very attractive and touching, on the other hand, each author presents the insights entirely different ways and this creates some doubts and confusion in mind. I really don't know who is talking or rather telling the truth.
There are some people who are fundamentalists claim to profess their faith in religion that their religion is supreme and if you are the member of that group, success will follow you. On the other hand some attack the religions of the world. So my mind gets inundated with questions such as, who is preaching the real God? Who is telling the truth? Who is leading the people correctly and who is misleading the humanity? Which laws to apply in order to attract wealth, money, happiness, success, health? Whom to trust and not to trust?
There are some who think that the earth is controlled by few rich families. These rich families don't work or invest their money rather they have large institutes, corporations, banks, religions, armies, financial market, the governments to earn profit for them out of thin air. There are still some believe that governments will feed the people. And there are some who tell that poverty is noble while others say poverty is sin. Some say love of money is the root of all evils while others say lack of money is the root of all evils. Some say the resources are scarce while others say resources are enough for all.
When I come across such conflicting information, I don't really know whom to believe or listen to because it is confusing for me to understand the real truth. I am in search of the ultimate truth about life, human nature, God, universe, money, love, friendship and a whole lot of other things. How long will it take me to understand and know the truth for the first time so that I can live a happy, prosperous, healthy and free life?
I have been searching and searching through reading books, asking people and knocking the doors of my subconscious mind to know the truth about life, laws, religion, God, money, happiness and so on. Will I be successful in finding the truth, then receiving the prosperity, happiness and opening the door of my subconscious mind live a life of my dream?
Some of the great and successful people who took upon themselves the same search did find and realize the truth and after that they followed their real desire to attract all they wanted and they had them abundantly. So this gives me confidence that one day may be very soon, I will know the truth and make my life a great success.
I have failed to come to the real conclusion about the principles and laws that govern the universe or the human life but soon I will have drawn my own understanding and insights from my continuous learnings. I believe truth is not one sided or two sided. Truth must be seen and understood from 360 degree angles.
I believe in seeking, finding, knocking, opening and receiving the truth. My concept of God came from the Sunday school and it served my purpose till I was teenager. But as I entered into my late twenties and beginning of thirties, the Sunday school concept of God no longer worked for me. I had to find a better concept that would later serve me in the pursuit of my goals. So I took upon myself another search for God.
This time I had to encounter many contrasting views about God and I found that nobody was really sure about God. For those people religion taught about God and that was sufficient and there was nothing more to know. The religion and the scriptures that preached about God didn't convince my inner self and I began to look for the real understanding of God. When I started to learn about new concept which a few people had experienced personally made me some sense and I thought to myself that God is not religion and religion is not spirituality.
God can't be known by being part of a religion but rather God can be known and better understood by being spiritual because we are spiritual beings with human mind existing in a physical body. The thoughts are spiritual and whatever thoughts we think in our mind that get translated into results and that is where a person becomes successful or unsuccessful in life.
