The Infinite Nature of Spirituality: A Casa Floresta Perspective

Spirituality is not something we seek—it is something we are. At Casa Floresta, we believe there is no separation between the sacred and the mundane. Everything is spiritual. Every experience, every challenge, and every moment serves as a mirror, offering insights into our journey toward truth and peace. By recognizing this, we begin to move through life with greater awareness, integrating different perspectives and learning from all that surrounds us.

Spirituality is Everything

At Casa Floresta, we understand spirituality as an all-encompassing reality. There is no way to step out of it because everything is spiritual—from the highest planes of consciousness to the most ordinary experiences of daily life. We do not separate spirituality from logic, nor do we see it as an alternative to rational thought. Instead, spirituality embraces all perspectives, allowing us to integrate different ways of understanding reality.

Observing the Energy Behind Our Actions

Spirituality is also about observing the energy from which we act in everything we do. Is there fear in this action, even if it’s something as mundane as walking or speaking? Is there self-judgment, insecurity, or anger behind it? By noticing the subtle energies that shape our actions, we can ask ourselves:

What is there to learn from this in terms of my desire to be free and at peace?
How does this feel in my body?
Is this serving me?
Is this how I want to live?

By bringing awareness to the root energy behind our actions, we begin to untangle old patterns. You can release these energies through various practices, and you will find what works for you. The main ingredient, however, is compassion and love. Merely observing the energy behind your actions with love—without judgment or resistance—can begin to dispel it.

The Process of Deepening Awareness

True observation means not judging and not pushing away. As you navigate this process, you may need to peel back layers of awareness. For example:

You may first recognize anger, but from the energy of distaste.
Then you observe the distaste and see that it carries frustration.
Finally, you observe frustration and it's from a place of compassion and love.

If you are not yet observing from compassion and love, continue the process. You may notice that the closer you get to compassion and love, the more each energy resists and reinforces itself. This is a pivotal moment where you can ask yourself:

Is this really how I want to live?
Does this actually feel good?
Do I want to be free, or do I want to be right?

From the perspective of these energies, they have every reason to exist. Their nature is self-preservation. Yet, through deeper awareness, we see that holding onto these energies is not worth the cost of our peace and freedom.

If the energy's resistance persists, you may find it helpful to have an internal dialogue with these emotions, acknowledging their purpose while gently guiding them toward release.

With patience and understanding, you can help these energies see that they no longer need to dominate your actions.

Planes of Consciousness: Understanding Our Journey

Consciousness exists on multiple levels, each with its own unique perspectives. These planes of consciousness serve as different vantage points through which we can learn about ourselves and the nature of existence. Some examples include:

Psychological Plane: How we perceive and interpret our reality based on our conditioning, beliefs, and personal experiences.
Astrological Plane: The influence of celestial bodies on our energetic and emotional patterns.
Spiritual Plane: A direct experience of unity and interconnectedness with all things.
Environmental and Social Planes: The ways our surroundings, culture, upbringing, and relationships shape our consciousness.

Within each of these overlapping planes, lie infinite constellations of nuanced perspectives, shaped by too many variables to fully list. These variables, however, offer a blueprint for disentangling ourselves from suffering by observing how they shape our perspective, and thus personalities—our model of being, perceptual world, and energetic frequency, and by becoming intentional about identifying and adjusting these variables, we begin to consciously form a constellation that is more conducive to our liberation, freedom, and inner peace.

For example, someone who grew up in an environment where their self-expression was discouraged may adopt a perspective that values silence over engagement. Their perceptual world might be one where speaking up feels unsafe, reinforcing an energetic frequency of hesitation or fear. Through intentional shifts—perhaps by surrounding themselves with supportive people, practicing self-expression through art or conversation, and embracing environments that celebrate their voice—they can begin to form a new constellation of variables that allow for greater self-liberation and inner peace.

Another example of shifting our model of being is by observing the variables involved in our entanglement and noticing the emotion present in our reasoning for continuing to engage with those modes of being. By recognizing these patterns, we can then give ourselves that which we believe those things were providing. Often, it is as simple as offering ourselves unconditional love. When we identify the emotional attachments we have to certain perspectives or behaviors, we create the space to consciously choose different variables that better serve our liberation, freedom, and inner peace.

Every aspect of our lives serves as a curriculum to deepen our self-awareness, leading us to

higher truths and greater freedom.

Learning from Relative Truths

Spirituality is the process of moving through different perspectives, or relative truths, with humility. It teaches us to observe our thoughts and emotions with curiosity rather than resistance. When we encounter a perspective that conflicts with our current understanding, we ask:

Is there fear here?
Does this perspective create opposition within me?
Does it prevent me from embracing another truth?

The goal is to integrate perspectives rather than becoming trapped in rigid viewpoints. True freedom comes when we recognize that relative truths are stepping stones to a broader understanding of existence. If something triggers us, it is an invitation to look within and ask, Where in myself have I not loved this part of my experience? This practice allows us to dissolve resistance and expand our awareness beyond duality.

A Practice of Integration and Love

At Casa Floresta, we invite you to embrace spirituality not as an abstract concept, but as a daily, and moment by moment practice of integrating all aspects of life. We encourage you to sit with your triggers, observe them without judgment, and ask what they are teaching you. You may be surprised at the insights that arise.

A simple practice to begin:

When triggered, ask yourself, where in myself have I not loved this part of my experience or myself?
Reflect on how your perspective has been shaped by your past experiences and conditioning.
Offer yourself compassion, saying: It’s okay. I forgive myself, and I love myself.
Recognize that everyone is on their own journey of awareness, and extend the same compassion to others.

By embodying this perspective, we walk the path of true freedom. Spirituality is not about avoiding or transcending life—it is about embracing it fully, seeing the divine in all things, and allowing every experience to guide us home to ourselves.

With love and reverence, may we continue to explore the vast, infinite nature of consciousness together.
