Life in Balance: Amit D. Chaudhary’s Blog
• • • • •

I wrote an article earlier: Ideas to think consciously about your spiritual goals and evaluating spiritual paths

Thinking on the same lines, I created a set of spiritual goals for myself and deduced a list of spiritual paths from these goals. These are below as example of getting spiritual path ideas from one’s spiritual goals, incase it helps some of the readers decide their spiritual paths consciously.

Spiritual Goal

Potential spiritual path or option

1. To keep my body at optimum health and pain free.

Yoga Asanas.

2. To cultivate better self-understanding and cultivate peace.

Yamas and Niyamas, Pratyahara(Sensory Withdrawl like reduced Television viewing) and maybe Pranayama.

3. Move towards wisdom.

Might result from dealing with different kind of people and some methods such as “Riding the wave” in Yoga for Emotional Flow.

4. Productivity and self-improvement.

Motivational and time management books such as Eat that Frog and Intention manifestation (Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill or Ask and It Is Given: Learning to Manifest Your Desires by Esther Hicks), A different view of reality (StevePavlina.com Podcast #016 - The True Nature of Reality) and Abundance model versus Scarcity model (Deepak Chopra, etc)

5. Someday, to increase connection to universe, expand knowledge about it.

Dreaming (Conscious Dreaming: A Spiritual Path for Everyday Life by Robert Moss), Erich Schiffman’s Moving into stillness teachings and Increasing Psychic capabilities (Erin Pavlina’s recommendations)
