Stages of the Soul

As we advance along our Spiritual path, through our physical incarnations, we carry within our souls and demonstrate all the major developmental stages that we have passed thus far as we have travelled along on our spiritual journeys, both individually and collectively as part of the group consciousness. During early embryonic stages, mammals manifest the gills of their predecessors and this principle operates in terms of human consciousness as well as in a physical sense.

Within every one of us, is the entire map of our growth in consciousness through the ages and this is re-enacted emotionally and behaviourally during our physical development from infancy and childhood, through adolescence to adulthood. This is exemplified during the stage of development in male children where their play activities revolve around weapons and mock battles to the death. During this period in their development, male children will use anything available to represent a weapon and this is a healthy expression of a normal stage of development which basically recaps the evolution of physical courage and prowess in the human race.

Even the most peaceful adult males pass through this natural stage of childhood, but not every person matures into someone capable of expressing humanities highest attainments as that capacity depends on several factors including the individuals own stage of conscious evolvement attained through their completed lifetimes, the strengths and limitations of the present physical, astral/emotional and mental bodies; and determining factors of the current incarnation including the individuals family, their overall social group and the general population. Each of these factors individually will either encourage or inhibit the complete physical and spiritual expression of what the individual has achieved at a soul level.

Every incarnation presents greater or lesser degrees of challenge, all of which serve to transform our spirits constantly. Low impulse control, lack of judgement and the capacity for reckless violence may be attributed to a chaotic childhood, however in many of these cases, it is likely that the soul of that person is at an early point on the outward path away from the Universal Consciousness.

A persons point on their path is not easily discerned from the circumstances of their birth or the degree of education that they undertake during their lives. Nor do the labels that they may have received such as "convicted felon".
