Spiritualisation of the Material World

The discussion was on the creation narratives in various religions. “Why is it said in the Bible that God created human beings in 'His own image and likeness' and why are we created at all?” asked one of the disciples. "The spirit that dwells in each one of us is in the image and likeness of God the Supreme Spirit. Human beings are thus the 'children of God'. They are divine in essence. We are spiritual beings with physical bodies. It is in the human person that matter becomes conscious and spirit displays its' divine nature. The human person is a conduit and catalyst for the divinisation of matter. "Spiritualisation and divinisation of the material world is thus the common goal and mission of every human life on earth. This is done in, with and through love. "Each one of us can choose an area and field through which we can contribute our shares towards this common mission. Some can be engineers, some can be doctors, some can be managers, some can be politicians, some can be farmers, some can be businessmen and so on. The only thing essential is that one needs to do things with love. That is how we can spiritualise and divinise the world and realise the purpose of life" said the master.
