WHat is spirituality to me? The highest hgoals that humans can achieve that are removed from base pleasures - self denial. A cosmic purpose to life.
1. health - fitness and diet
2. non-violence and controlling of anger
3. kindness and goodwill - helping others
4. doing good work - acheiving things
But why couldn't spirituality be about humans NOT being the ones who do perfect things? HUmans are flawed and imperfect. Maybe an android could so thiese things. Do we look to God's will to help us be more godlike? But how do we measure? If its God will are we at all at fault?
1. laziness and eating junk food
2. violence and expressing anger
3. meanness and badwill - harming others - self preservation
4. not accomplishing anything

Getting away from base pleasures is not self denial unless you think you are wholly defined by your base pleasures.
I think spirituality is basically about trying to see the world objectively, walking a day in your neighbor's shoes rather than your own, realizing that you are NOT the center of the universe. This can extend from simple charity to experimenting with consciousness.

Have you heard of the secret Book of Dzyan?
Generations of Truth-seekers have been searching for this mysterious manuscript of untold antiquity that conceals the entire wisdom of the world, yet only a chosen few have ever gained access to it. Thus, in 2015, Zinovia Dushkova, Ph.D., published a new excerpt from the Book of Dzyan in The Book of Secret Wisdom that revealed the future and destiny of humanity. At that time, however, she was not allowed to disclose anything more about the Book of Dzyan than Helena Blavatsky had already done in her time.
But now, for the first time ever, Dr. Dushkova has been permitted to cast more light on the Book of Dzyan and answer the following questions:
Who are the authors of the Book of Dzyan?
Where was it stored in the past, and where is it now?
What are its structure and contents?
When was the Book of Dzyan written?
Why is it now of such great significance, even in your own life?
In addition, you will also learn about the attempt that the Masters of Wisdom made to enlighten the world in the 20th century and what challenges face humanity in the 21st century.
