Getting better is good. Though the application of spiritual principles “I” get better as a self until things don’t go my way. At this point, I am driven further into self and away from God consciousness.  How do we go deeper? Further? By uncovering how self plays God and the logical interweaving of prayer, meditation and self-examinition (contemplation), we begin to see common manifestations of self and ask for thier re-moval. This builds an unshakeable foundation for life.
