Does The Ideal Human Being Exist?

With Dr. Moses Orobor

VARIOUS Qualities of character, moral and ethical standards clearly denote the true human personality, it is these noble characteristics which we should all strive to acquire, for in their expression we reveal the qualities of the divine inner self which we all seek and admire.

The True human personality seeks always to improve his character and to emulate the highest nobility of thought and conduct that he personally can conceive and visualize.

He never feels that he cannot achieve his aims, but realizes that all is possible to those who mentally create ‘their ideals and noble conduct, and whose consciousness is imbued with the love and harmony that result from the presence of God in their daily lives, and in their intercourse with life.

He is always constructive and kind. He seeks to help others by his positive approach to life and by his example. He seeks to build and create better conditions in his present environment by encouraging and inspiring others.

By the application of the principles he has learned, and fortified by the uplifting and practical philosophy he has acquired, he becomes an example of what each individual can achieve by a sane and practical approach to all of life’s problems. He also acts as an inspiration to those who recognize his sensitive and loving understanding of other people.

He seeks to demonstrate the qualities of tolerance, humility, cheerfulness, justice, compassion and love, blended in a trained and disciplined mind, and possessed of a powerful will. The true human personality is ever sympathetic, ever courteous, gentle and refined, and the steps to attain his ideals are his life’s greatest adventure.

Only through purity of thought and nobility of purpose can we hope to attain such higher consciousness. As we think, so we become. We will never reach beyond our present level of consciousness until we remove from our thinking all the impure things of life.

The Quest for True Happiness: The True human being seeks happiness; however, he recognizes the changing nature of all things, and knows that happiness is found only in the pursuit of knowledge and understanding in the true expression of the qualities of the soul within.

It is by expressing the real life of the inner spiritual self that he finds the greatest satisfaction and, therefore, the greatest happiness.

He learns to fulfill the will and desires of God within rather than his own personal likes and dislikes, and his own personal goals for achievement in the world. Through him, it becomes obvious that, true happiness, is obtained by becoming a channel of useful service for the benefit of others.

There is no real thought of self, but instead a real commitment to service, for this brings the greatest of satisfactions.

The truth of life will reveal itself to us only through the deeper insights we receive from within and then only according to our needs.

Truth is not found in books, but in an intimate response to life and by being actively engaged in living and thinking to the best of our ability. Books open the door to wider understanding; they evoke various responses from within, allowing the spiritual vision of our psychic consciousness to illuminate our minds with truth.

Meditation, contemplation, and the discipline of mind and heart will allow this central spiritual force to awaken and gradually reveal itself. But a persistent and active mentality is needed to stimulate and actively awaken it. Nothing is more important than the daily thoughts of allowing the God within to be ever present in our minds and hearts.

Wisdom is essentially experience; it is knowledge applied to practical and useful ends. As a True human personality, one is, therefore, seeking wisdom rather than knowledge, for in the application of the knowledge, we have acquired, we demonstrate our mastery of life and utilize the real knowledge that comes from within to serve and truly express the psychic and spiritual nature of self.

The true human being is always optimistic, thoughtful, and compassionate. His periods of attunement with the inner spiritual self have made their mark upon his personality, and his character is one which inspires confidence and trust.

He has a practical nature and is always willing to, give assistance to those in need, but he has also developed the will and faculties of mind to a high degree, and accepts life as a challenge. He realizes that through strife, opposition, and the trials of life, he can make the greatest progress of life’s ultimate attainment of illumination.

No goal is too large, no ideal is too remote or too difficult to attain if we sincerely desire and work towards it.

These goals and ideals are in no way limited to the material plane, but apply as well to our highest aspirations of the mystical life, and to our search for greater knowledge and the illumination of consciousness we sincerely seek to achieve.

The True human being knows that every goal and every ideal we seek to attain must be gained through a plan created in our minds.

Service has always been the center of the true human being. It is through service that we truly express the Soul Consciousness within, and as we develop and unfold the beauty of the divine light from within, and allow it to radiate from us, so do we express the divine will.

The spiritual life is one of service, expressing the will, the intellect, and the love of God in action. Whenever we devote ourselves to useful endeavours, the divine spirit seeks to express itself through us, and use us as a channel in its plan of service to man.

To negate love is to curtail our inner spiritual growth. To express love on every level’ and in everyday experiences is to allow the love of God to grow in our hearts, until after many trials and tribulations, love blossoms into the illumination of our spiritual consciousness, whereupon we are reborn into a new life of great achievement for the benefit of others.

Only when we enter into our daily life with a balanced outlook of heart and mind and try to see and understand others and ourselves, as well as the circumstances we find ourselves in, from the point of view of a deep, heartfelt contentment, can we see clearly the true meaning of life and all it has to offer us.

Then, and only then, will the spirit and harmony of pure love begin to grow within, because we will have made a sacred place for it. Others will see and feel this heartfelt sympathy that will prove so helpful to them. .

Love is the most sublime of all emotions, yet it never gained in its highest form without suffering and loss. The crucible of life must take its toll before we are enlightened as to the fullness and beauty of its great power. We must seek its perfection and strive for its attainment because it is the greatest of all goals in life, to become perfect in love when man and God become as one.

Looking at the various religions vis-à-vis the sectarian faithful in the world, can we say with confidence, that we can truly find the True Human Being?
