What is upliftment? It is the rising up of the soul to a higher level of consciousness. Who is it who controls this level? You do, for you have the free will to rise above the grosser levels and to manifest yourself at even the highest levels of consciousness. But few people make any serious effort to break away from the grosser material levels and the habits they have developed over so many years. It needs a sudden wrench, something traumatic to galvanise man into action. But it is never too late, and every day that man continues on the old path is a wasted day.
What an you do? Stop now and contemplate the past, the present and the future. Has the past been satisfactory? What about the present? And what will the future be like if you continue without change? It will just be a repetition of the same old pattern, a slow road to nowhere, and with no sense of fulfilment.
So if you want upliftment, spend more time in communion with the Lord, for it is in that state that you can prepare yourself for the future and then move onto new ground and reach the higher levels of consciousness. This is the only way to find true peace and happiness and achieve a feeling of fulfilment which will satisfy the soul.
It is a gradual process and it will only begin when you make the first move. The time for that move is now.
