 On a scale of 1- 12, what is your
                   academic level of achievement?  Now, what would you
                   guess is your spiritual level of achievement or spiritual index?    We are
                   all aware of the academic system and how it is structured with tests and grades to determine
                   one's progression and intellectual level of achievements. The level you achieve determines your
                   degree of academic success. Often this is relative to determining the job that you qualify for
                   and the amount of money you will be paid for your knowledge. However, this has nothing to do
                   with your minds perception of your spiritual index level. From a
                   holistic perspective, there are two sides to education. There is the academic or intellectual
                   side of learning associated with the brain and there is the less popular and non mainstream
                   spiritual side of learning associate with the mind. Even though the world does not acknowledge
                   it, spiritual education or your spiritual index is the most valuable knowledge in the world.
                   This is the reason that Jesus said:  "But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things shall be added to
                   you." [Matthew 6:33]   On the spiritual side, there are also levels or grades that
                     determine your spiritual index or understanding of spirit and truth. Just like on the
                     intellectual side there are levels of progression. Another way of wording this is that there
                     are levels of consciousness and awareness or faith. The more you remove the blockages or
                     programming and conditioning of the world, the higher you advance in your spiritual index or
                     levels of spiritual awareness or faith.
 Believe
                   it or not, the level that you are at determines whether your life is full, mediocre or lacking
                   peace, joy, happiness and holistic success. When your spiritual index is at a lower level, you
                   experience emotions like worry, fear, lack, limitations and life challenges. People who are not
                   thriving at all are at the lowest levels.   At lower
                   levels or grades (1st – 6th, our elementary spiritual index level), we block most of the wisdom
                   and power of the Holy Spirit; therefore, pain, stress, limitation, fear, anger, blame and doubt
                   occupy our lives.  But, as we progress to higher
                   levels (7th - 12th), love, joy, peace and abundance are gradually more easily attainable. The
                   pain, stress and struggle no longer challenge you and you live the life you truly desire, with
                   grace and ease.  The good
                   thing about life and where you are on your spiritual index level is if you don’t like it, you
                   can change it. You can always increase your faith or energy vibrations. This will put you in a
                   different mindset or place where the worry, fear and lack of happiness minimize and eventually
                   ceases to exist. The further you grow to higher levels, the less you experience the challenges
                   of the lower vibration levels.  If you want to
                   experience more joy, better health, harmonious relationships and prosperity, the key is to raise
                   or increase your spiritual index, energy vibrations or faith level of
                   awareness.  Therefore, be honest
                   with yourself and ask, "What is my Spiritual Index Level," at this very moment?
