You are a spirit.

We are spiritual in essence.

We have a body, we have a mind, we have emotions and thoughts, but we are none of these. So what are we? We are spirits. We are aware of being aware.

As spirits we are separate from all energy and mass. As spirits we are not part of the physical world. To understand this, a person needs to detach from the body and mind – both of which consist of energy. All that is physical must be ‘let go’ and at that point of ‘detachment’ we will regain our natural ‘spiritual abilities’ and view the physical world in terms of its cause and effect.

The purpose of the spirit in life is to understand and detach from the viewpoints of the human by accepting the human childlike viewpoint as its guide to sanity.

All religions, regardless of denomination, teach us that we are a spirit, and are ultimately responsible to a spirit for our thoughts, actions, and the mental and physical health of our bodies. All native cultures around the world also independently acknowledge that we are spiritual in essence.
