You wish for spiritual perception?  Close your eyes.  Shut out the outer world, which gives you the illusion that you are separate from all others.  It is a movie, passing before your physical eyes in rapid sequence of individual moments.  Shut them out and go within.  There you will find a treasure beyond measure.  You know this, yet you rebel against taking the time out of your busy outer world to test the theory, to put it into practice.  For many, the dark night of the soul is what is necessary to lead one to the light of your true nature.  There is no need to wait that long.  Five minutes a day of asking “Who am I” of the One within instead of immersing yourself in the many without will reap the rewards your soul has been nudging you toward all along.
