Who is a Spiritual Seeker?

We have seen enough questions posed on “Genuine Guru” but what about “Genuine Seeker”?!

To tread on a Spiritual path having guidance from a genuine GURU is important but it’s more important TO BE a GENUINE SEEKER. 

In the current era of Kali Yuga (Dark Age) we find it tough to get connected to a genuine GURU around us to show the path of Divine Light and Divine Truth, but it’s even tougher to find a GENUINE SEEKER. 

If you say the world is full of fake gurus, be careful… because you are also saying the world is full of fake seekers…

If yathā rājā tathā prajā is true, yathā prajā tathā rājā is also equally true. When fake seekers increase, the number of fake gurus also increases to fulfill the need of the mass.

First we need to know who is a Spiritual SEEKER…

The SOUL who wishes to walk the path of life maintaining certain Spiritual disciplines and practices by combating various obstacles in both Material & Spiritual Life and subsequently tries to reach the ultimate goal of a human birth (Moksha) through its conscious effort, is a Spiritual Seeker. 

Spiritual Seeker is one who seeks the TRUTH, truth about SELF, truth about creation and creative force, truth from spiritual perspective without any compromise by dropping all the prejudices.

Now who is a GENUINE or TRUE (Spiritual) SEEKER?!

In first place, a GENUINE or TRUE SEEKER needs a past life Samskara which cannot be pushed or forced into any SOUL without a proper SOUL planning. 

Next, unless a SOUL completes 80% of its MATERIAL experiences and 50% of its KARMA payoff, it can NEVER become a GENUINE SEEKER. If even they come on the Spiritual path and do some practices, their conscious mind and SOUL will NOT be able to absorb the Eternal Truth about this Earth, Universe or Existence and about the Energy World.

Their Karmic baggage and/or pending Material experiences would NOT allow them to do so. In such cases, even if they wish to follow a Spiritual path, they would tend to drift from one Spiritual umbrella to the other, in search for the (SOUL) Truth. Additionally, they will keep feeling a kind of discomfort inside them all the time as if something is highly missing. Most of such so-called seekers’ look out would be to solve/fulfill material problems/needs. 

The GENUINE or REAL SEEKER is the one, who would deeply search for his or her original SOURCE of creation, from where has he or she come in this current life and where will he or she go after this current birth. 

The REAL SEEKER would dive deeply to find ways to return to their original HOME which lies beyond this physical world through the process of Moksha.

The REAL SEEKER would always strive to explore the possibilities of the ENERGY WORLD & its influences on Earth…

The GENUINE SEEKER would be open enough to accept his or her shortcomings / weaknesses which are required to be on the Divine path and strive to improve those areas by keeping full trust, respect & gratitude towards the GURU. 

The REAL SEEKER would rarely look for any material prosperity from a GURU rather would TRUST fully that it would be taken care of in the best possible way.

The REAL SEEKER would believe strongly that there is a larger PURPOSE of this current Earthly Birth which is over and above mere Material and Worldly Duties & Responsibilities. 

The REAL SEEKERS would never try to shift from one GURU to another being opportunistic; rather would put their genuine efforts to grow under the ONE shed, however rough, tough or strong be it.

If seeking is genuine, they will find the best guru for their level, eligibility and capability and based on need of the time. Once they are really done (due to stagnancy or inefficiency to progress), Genuine Guru would leave them on their own without holding them back…

The GENUINE SEEKER naturally would be egoless, humble, simple (using his own discernment based on the situation) and always tends to melt the thoughts of becoming judgmental towards anyone, especially towards GURU and would be filled with gratitude for smallest things also in life.

The REAL SEEKER naturally would have an unconditional inclination towards SELFLESS SERVICE for his Guru and then mankind and humanity without any expectation and without any self-centeredness. 

The GENUINE SEEKER tends to be calm and silent as much as possible without much self-showcasing, while performing his or her services or practices. They would also be sufficiently courageous, fearless and ready to accept any challenge in life, at any given situation keeping full TRUST on the GURU.

A TRUE SEEKER gets connected to his or her own GURU naturally when they are ready. Based on the SEEKER’s level, eligibility and quality, Divine connects the GURU. Or else it is difficult to grab the lessons and knowledge thus shared. Important to mention that, GURUs also have their own stages and levels. Divine connects the Right SEEKER to the Right GURU… It would be difficult for a basic SEEKER to follow an Advanced GURU… 

Guru can easily identify the Genuine Seeker but unless the seeker is genuine, he can never identify the Guru even if Guru is standing in front of him for his whole life…

Finally, All SEEKERs should note that Spiritual journey is vast and there are twists and turns at every end which seems to be locked…. and there is continuous transformation and evolution in the Energy World in terms of old concepts or theories… Unless the human consciousness expands from micro level to macro level, it cannot be experienced or realized… 

It is Okay if you are NOT a seeker but if you are trying to fake it, neither you can experience fulfillment in material life nor on spiritual path. You would miss both and come again to start the earthly life from the scratch.

With Divine Light
