God consciousness is true spiritual freedom, or we can call it enlightenment or in a religious sense self realization is often used. Most of us remain in the human form to repeat the process (having a body) over and over, as it seems impossible to get it right, especially in a spiritual sense. Some may repeat the process in an effort to teach, as Jesus, and the Buddha along with many other prophets or masters, some enlightened and some attaining enlightenment at the death of one body. Many questions can only be answered with faith, secular or religious, or a mixture of both.

Uniting oneself, or the body with God, or the Universe is the true action of freedom in a spiritual life, actually the body, mind and spirit, or soul as some define it. True freedom of spirit can result from such a union, though today and years past also it has mainly resulted in the release of the spirit from pure consciousness into a new body, or vessel for the spirit, with the mind coming later, though if enlightened enough in the previous body or existence perhaps some memory stays with the spirit and is absorbed by the new mind. In reality, no mind is what may be the most positive in respect to the majority of a population. Think beginner's mind, which will allow the freedom to grow with the absence of an egotistical idiocy and usually a lack of any spirituality.

Spiritual life is not what can be called simple to accomplish, although it involves simplicity in actions. Love is the key to leading anything even near a spiritual life. Love is truth, or truth is love interchangeably, which is the only factor of spirituality absolutely. In the physical body, in order to actually free the spirit, love consists of the female and the male as the uniting factors along with the omnipotence of the Universe, or Natural law.

Uniting the female and the male in love in the truest spiritual sense, as in one with the Universe, the spirit(s) in between one physical body and the next will have the most pleasant experience in the fact that when the spirit enters the womb, after choosing to do so, conception of the new physical body begins. If the female and the male where in just the act of making love, the spirit, if it enters a womb at such a time it may find itself searching rather quickly for another womb as conception may not be something wanted by the couple pretending to be in love, although of course there may be many other factors involved, which is why it is said to choose the womb carefully.

True spiritual freedom is like doing something right the first time from the state of pure consciousness to choosing the most perfect womb and growing into a body with a mind and spirit allowing near perfection in finding the perfect love. Some say the perfect love and freedom in the spiritual life is only possible through the practice of celibacy, as in only loving God. Most mortal human beings, celibate or not do not have the will or discipline to actually achieve such perfection, which of course is why we have many problems needing to be solved, with few solutions.

Practice with a beginner's mind in all things and perhaps we can begin to sense just what the solutions are that have a true practical use in reality. Perhaps then we can all begin to sense a true spiritual freedom we can live and love with.
