Thought Adjuster:  “Experiences are sensations which are being registered in your being at multiple levels.  Whenever you go through a new life experience, you experience it through your five physical senses that are here to guide your physical body but also to provide you with pleasant sensations. 

“Beyond the physical experiences that are memorized in your cells, there are other levels of experiences which are relevant to the other layers of your being.  A spiritual experience expands your mind and your understanding of spiritual values. Intellectual knowledge or projection does not constitute an experience.  The data has to be filtered through your being so that you can integrate it through the phenomena of personal experience.

“Relationships—including the one with the Divine--are experiential, not intellectual.  You may get a vague idea through the testimonies of others who are sharing their own experiences.  Yet, just the same as you need to taste a dish to experience its flavor, you need to experience your own unique relationship with the Divine, involving your unique personality traits. 

“Others can whet your appetite by telling you about possibilities, yet you are the one who needs to diligently gather personal experiences during your life span, in this world and beyond.  As you validate for yourself that you can be in a real relationship with the Divine, you can encourage others to make the free will decision to engage themselves on the same experiential quest.  Once this decision has been made, the Divine will for sure meet you in the manifestation of that intention. 

“As you progress in your own spiritual relationship with your Divine and celestial counterparts, you know that it is real for you.  You get to taste the reality of the relationship and you acquire a more steadfast motivation to persevere on that relational quest as you experience for yourself the fruits of the Spirit that start embellishing your life.  The fruits are the intention behind the creation of a tree.  They are the reward of the growth process.  They are nutritional and they can be shared to impact others in a positive way.  They are visible for all to see and thus, they may decide that they want to taste such fruits in their own life.”
