if you correctly understand, it is obvious that spiritual maturity is all that but not only. So what it is, from your point of you ? that's the unique question !

thank you for your answers. i have badly formulated my question. (i am french)
i only speak about the "spiritual maturity". What is this ?
2007-12-31 07:13:46 · update #4
i am talking about "spiritual maturity" englobing endless love, wisdom, emotionnal intelligence, ethics, intuition, non duality, mental quiet, awareness...

This is a good question. There is no "right" answer, just an understanding. Here are my "simple answers" to these.
- spiritual maturity ... reaching the full understanding of yourself and your relationship with the universe... not sure it can be done in the life-time on this earth.
- endless love ... is a practice of never-ending giving of yourself to others ... extremely hard to live this way.. includes forgiving even the worst treatment from your fellows..
- wisdom is what you achieve when you learn from your mistakes ... and imparting that knowledge to your fellows.
- emotional and pyschological understanding ... this is a tough one to master ... it is understanding everything about yourself, how you think, the why, the how, and growing as a human being as a result.
- ethics is applting your wisdom through your spiritual maturity and endless love and more....
.. those who do not believe in "god" have a hard time understanding their place in this universe. Believing in god is not a requirement, however, something larger than us all is "out there".
This is stepping from the physical realm of what you see, hear, and touch into the metaphysical .... too bad more people don't ask such questions .. the answers for these are not always teachable, but guidance can be provided to one who seeks these answers. Are your ready for it???

faith and a beleif in oneself, born from an understanding of the self, self awareness, an inner spiritual awakening,
Sometimes the blissful lack of this is equal in it speace and sublimity as the awakeing as long as the understanding and knowldge has brought light love and peace into you heart mind soul and little world...
God, ones conscience tha tinner greater good that leads the thought and behaviour of the good and supreme souls.
Mastery of self will requires a teacher, a guide, books...I wil try and find some to reccomend and post here shortly...some are however fortuned in having one that inspires evokes is trusted and understood. This negates the neccessity for the aforementioned...however, always remember that faith is fragile and a tender spun golden yarn that nbinds all thing si th erealm of our minds world, and once broken, all that understanding, love, peace can be dismantled bruatally if th eone we believe is found to be less than the paragon of all things noble and wise....Knowldege flows like a mountain spring coursing through our mind and beings, if hindered by something vile or undesirable , it can become polluted, stagnate and thereafter the beauty of knowledge and truth become marred with the benefactor thereof...
Be Protected from th eharshness of Life.
Be So Loved, sometimes it is enough to know that we are..

nicely that's no longer in easy terms filling our minds with understanding and getting to grasp. we could desire to positioned various attempt and proceed to allow God's be conscious to steer us. And if somebody is coaching us relating to the Bible, and something does not upload as much as question it respectfully until eventually we get a satisfying answer. To have religious understanding is as 2 Timothy 3:sixteen,17 says that we enable God to mildew our questioning with a view to enhance our information of the bible and this permits us to maximum ideas-blowing our questioning. in this way we earnings ourselves and others. So that's no longer in easy terms a school degree for even Jesus disciples did no longer bypass to the Rabbinical faculties of his day.a million Co 2:14.

hmmm...
i think
spiritual maturity ... means to be act like real human.
the basic thing is that we are human the best creature in the world. so act like human. we should do not act like animals.for example :live with out marriage in one house and make relationship without marriage this is done by animals. they have no any code of ethics , no diffenrce between mother,son,father,sister,aunt,uncle.
to make reltionship without marriage is not a modernism. it is wildessness. we are not created to be animals. we are human.
so this is spiriual maturity that act like for wat u r created.act like human. act on level of status of human not on the level of animals.
2:endless love........ do love with whom who never finish or die.
3: wisdom.... the greatest wisdom is to recognize ur status among all creatures. to be human.
4...ethics ,,, the rule of living is ethics....for example.. nudism is not ethics ..it is the job of animals ,,,we are human ,,we know to made clothes... so y dont we use it... y we like to be liek naked animals? is this status of human? the unchastness? for example ..incest ,, is not ethics it is the level of animals..not humans... we have power of thinking...
5:.....well if u wanna reach spiritual matuarity without believing in GOD u will crack down. who created u as human ? y we not born in animals? who give u thinking power? animal cant ask teh question like we do.
when the snake is starving he eats his eggs, we cant do that because we are human... if i help some one then wat i get?
be adopt realism.. wat u get when u help anyone? a feeling of joy only u get satisfaction..ok if some one kill u and the law cant capture him then who will capture him and when he will be punish and who forbid him to doing wrong things?
or if i sacrifice for my town fro example i save a child`s life from a burning house and i die when i saving him then why i do so? for whom? who reward me? certainly THE GOD......
and ask to me any question ? there might be remian somethings ..i m not prefect.
