The quest for what Germans call mehr als leben, “more than living” is central to experiencing the Spirit Within, but this is also the problem with the quest.
More than living? Living is enough, if one lives right, if one lives harmoniously with nature, with human nature, and with evolution.
Human impatience, human short-term thinking, leads to desire for the reward before the work is done.
Partial enlightenment, longing for the Absolute, defines this desire for more than living.
This quest, too often, leads to the Great Spiritual Blockade against our natural evolution to Godhood.
Detachment from sensory perceptions, as Buddha and others advocated, means ultimately detachment from evolving to Godhood.
Seeking the Soul Within, with the Involutionary Inward Path, should never be seen as the goal. It should be seen as a great glimpse of the goal of evolution to Godhood, through the Evolutionary Outward Path.
