“Somewhere just at the edge of the apparent end of a matter is a door to a place where we might put a breath into the sentences of our lives – a place where we are stripped of all questions where more than we can imagine takes place.” - Rob Wykes in Pause - A Spiritual Power Opportunities to enter a spiritual place are all around us but we often don't recognize them, opting instead to move on to the next thing. In his book, Pause - A Spiritual Power, author Rob Wykes helps people to identify those moments and enter places of ‘spiritual pause’ which exist ‘just at the fingertips of our mortal grasp.’ A former builder turned Chaplain and then charity Chief Executive, Rob trekked through Europe, India, Iran, and Pakistan as a young man, where he awakened to the deep and profound experiences that cross cultures. While he is a practicing Christian, the power of pause is not confined or defined by any one faith tradition. In this episode Rob defines pause as a spiritual power, talks about the importance of attending to the spiritual life, and shares his own pause experiences. Some of the things we talk about are: •There is much more to us than meets the eye •What is spirituality? •Categories don’t apply to our spiritual nature, so words can’t describe •God inhabits the spirit not the mental or emotional •Pause is when we get to the edge of the material •Why pause is a spiritual power •The spirit within us is fixed and needs no improvement •The soul, like the body needs feeding too •How prayer can be an internal conversation in our head •What ‘ask and it will be given’ really means •At the end of our mortal grasp is the spiritual realm; at the end of our prayers, we discover God •Unity and individual experiences •The importance of being expectant, waiting and listening Links: https://youtu.be/J8b9ho7vL0s https://robwykes.com/ https://www.facebook.com/rob.wykes.1 © the spiritual forum 2023
