The featured article of the April e-newsletter
of Michael Mirdad (www.grailproductions.com) is
titled “Getting Our Priorities Straight.”
I first made the acquaintance of Michael Mirdad about 25 years ago when
he began coming to Dallas to teach and hold sessions. At this time, Michael is a world-renowned
spiritual teacher, healer, and author. He has worked as a healer and counselor
for over 30 years and is the author of several best-selling books, including: “The Seven Initiations on the Spiritual Path”
and “You're Not Going Crazy...You're Just Waking Up!” and “Healing the Heart
& Soul” and “An Introduction to
Tantra and Sacred Sexuality” and “Creating Fulfilling Relationships” (his
latest). Michael currently offers an
online course, “Awakening the Inner Christ.” He continues to offer workshops where and
when guided to do so.
I want to share an excerpt from “Getting Our
Priorities Straight” here, and I recommend going to www.grailproductions.com to read the full article in the
April 2016 newsletter.
“. . . Some people believe they are committed
to the spiritual path but the reality is that they are actually committed only
to whatever seems convenient for them on the spiritual path, which can include
numerous forms of self-deception such as attending a gathering or a group so
they can look good to others but never really applying what they learned.
What's worse is that these types of people also rarely demonstrate change in
their life, their addictions, or their behaviors. They were shallow before they
were on the path and they remain shallow now. The only difference is that now
they appear to be deeper. If it's true
that all of life's events are a test for us (and I assure you they are) AND if
connecting with Spirit is the most important thing in the world (and I assure
you it is), then it stands to reason that all of life's tests are about getting
ourselves closer to God. By default, all else is a distraction and a potential
detour away from our goal of oneness with God.”
“It's not to say we can't have a nice time
while we are here but the point is to get our priorities straight. This applies to both our personal and our
spiritual priorities. Our spiritual priorities (which includes involving
ourselves with as many spiritual experiences as possible) supersedes all
else-including our personal priorities. Setting a spiritual priority can be as
simple as starting and ending the day with communion with God, rather than merely
having a blank mind or obsessing on the issues of life. Our personal priorities
include making it a priority to go to a gym instead of a bar OR spending time
with a counselor instead of with an affair. Choosing to create greater personal
priorities is actually a great way to connect with and honor our spiritual
priorities and actually mirrors placing a greater priority on God. Improving
our personal priorities includes making it a priority to go to a gym instead of
a bar OR spending time with a counselor instead of with an affair. We should all ask ourselves what it is that we
allow to get in our way of reaching the spring of life. For some people, the
distractions can be as shallow as a favorite television show, a romantic date, or
going to a sporting event. Don't get me wrong, these things are great to do if
that's your thing but only if they are seen as less of a priority than one's
spiritual path. Some even make excuses like claiming that going to a sporting
event IS a "spiritual experience" for them. Nice try but it doesn't
fly. Yes, we can gain something spiritual from nearly any experience but we
need to make it a priority to participate in experiences that are so filled
with Spirit, it would be nearly impossible to not have a spiritual experience
when we attend--events such as healing circles, Sunday services, Solstice
Celebrations, and so forth.”
“So consider being honest about all things in
life including your spiritual path. We need to stop justifying our petty
hobbies, addictions, and distractions as having any real importance. We can go
ahead and do them if we must, but we should call them what they are and must
dare not confuse them with the real path Home.”
Because of an altered state of consciousness
experience many years ago on a different timeline or in a different life or a
journey to another realm (whichever), I recognize Michael Mirdad as one of the
expressions of a Soul that is an Ascended Master. He is truly a Master Teacher who teaches at
the level each of his audiences as a whole can best understand (and they are
not all the same). To learn more about
Michael and/or find dates for his upcoming workshops and/or schedule a private
session, go to www.grailproductions.com.
