I don't like to sound arrogant which i have been accursed of in the past, this inner knowing that i mentioned, is a knowing that is felt deep within, its not a knowing of say, I know more than you, because you probably know a hell lot more than me, so this inner knowing is really a knowing that i cannot even describe, its really useless to the one who wants to know this inner knowing intellectually.

Perhaps you are not so much losing interest in spiritual matters, but perhaps just needing a break from thinking about them ? Happens to me now and then, and when it does I just leave it be and focus on something else... at those times when taking a break from things spiritual and/ or psychic, seems to be my more creative interests needing attention.

What I found was a heck of a lot of attachment and ego tied up with the vallance of the spiritual seeker. All the thrill of the hunt for knowledge and acquisition of understanding was imvested in this illusion of what I thought was me being spiritual.
But there was no end to it. Always another book to read or something else to work on. Then one day 'poof' !!! All gone.
It really surprised me, as what moved in was a huge indifference with the old ways of doing things coupled with a more grassroots simplicity of understanding.
It really never plays out as you expect it to eh mate?

Yea, I see what you are saying, and that is probably all that is needed, but still i am starting to question what is called spiritual, like what is it really ?.

Now that would be a good question for the beliefs section, I am sure you would get a variety of answers, and then some !

Yea, we all throw this word around like a Frisbee, but do we really know what we are going on about ?.

It is equally good to know that someone else shares a similar experience. So either this is a natural part of the journey or we are both just lazy sods LOL

I like that " throw this word around like a Frisbee " , actually that could be said about alot of topics.

I was just trying to remember, what is it Tzu always says ? ...." be still and know " ? maybe that is the answer
