The Purification of Intent

 

The spiritual practitioner must at some point involve themselves in the consideration of the purification of intent.   Like the raising of intent it is a multifaceted process which results in a progressively higher, more evolved level of being, or in other words, the progressive expansion of consciousness.   To purify an intention is to refine it.  This refinement may be likened to the honing of more and more useful tools from the raw ore of animal instinct and impulsive mind.  It is a return to the prerogatives of natural laws and goals which may be summed up as the achievement of successive steps of evolutionary progress.  For exactly the same reasons the spiritual practitioner refines their intention through a greater alignment with natural purposes so as to achieve a more evolved level of self.  The greater the purification of intent the more refined the self becomes.  Therefore, the purification of intent is closely intertwined with the raising of intent…they aid each others progression. 

 

The expansion of consciousness means the expansion of self as soul.  Self realization reveals the essential fact that we are not specific thoughts but the creator of thought itself.  We are not specific emotions, but the creator of all emotion.  We are not memories or memorized things but the keeper of all memory.  We are not the things done in life, but the doer who oversees them all.  It is this “Doer” that is the consciousness to which I refer.  Close inspection of this “Doer” reveals that it is composed primarily of intention as the motive and causal force of our lives, awareness as our secondary ingredient of soul as focusing agent, and energy as our third essential foundation which makes action possible.  Only in meditation can we witness the indisputable fact that we are intent, awareness and energy, and that these are the basis for the consciousness that we are.  Because intent rules these three it’s purification and raising is fundamental for not only all success in life, but the very attainment of Mastery and higher levels of being.  The expansion of consciousness is had, first and foremost, in the raising and purification of the intent that we essentially are.

 

To successfully grasp the concept of purification there is an implicit need to understand also that there exists something of greater purity to attain.  This is a fact of Truth and it is universally so.  There exists in fact, higher and higher levels of consciousness and resulting forms, which are increasingly in alignment with Cosmic Purpose.  That Purpose is of course, the evolution that results from expanding consciousness.  In order to purify our intentions it is necessary to intuitively and logically realize exactly what greater levels of evolutionary human progress mean.  They mean among other things, greater manifest intelligence, sharper clarity, increased levels of wisdom and intuitive understanding, physical health, mental balance and logic, truthfulness, honesty, social excellence and unification, as well as attunement with that which is called God and the intelligent purpose of nature.  These various aspects of the purification of intent are not divergent and seemingly diverse focuses, they are all the various fruit born by the same roots of self realization.  In meditation we See and refine the consciousness that we are, resulting in the enhancement of all these things.

 

The purification of intent implies not just the raising of ones state into higher levels of love, it implies greater dedication to the cause of love itself.  It is not just the raising of one’s state into higher levels of clarity, it is the greater dedication to the cause of clear Seeingness and accurate acquisition of Truth.  It is not the idle praising of God, but the embodiment of the intent and will of God in the expansion of what we centrally are as souls.  Purification means dedication to spiritual purpose as a first and foremost life priority.  Through such a purpose are all other things accomplished with greater ease and progressive result.  Purification of mind implies a logical thought process dedicated to the cause of truth, (synonymous with spiritual purpose) as a first priority in life.  Through such a cause we see all people not as members of nations, or races, or political systems, or religious ideologies, but as centers of consciousness who are the product of an intelligent, natural world that is driven by the purposes of universal consciousness. 

 

All that is required for this process already exists within the internal mechanisms of human body, mind and soul.  This is exactly why self realization is key to the purification of intent, and thus, the further evolution of our species.
