For centuries humans have connected with the divine in a myriad of ways. In today’s world, more people are embracing the need for a spiritual connection with the divine, or gods. Whether or not one believes that these Gods actually exist, a growing body of evidence suggests that connecting with them in the form of prayer, meditation or rituals can produce beneficial results.

One of the most obvious benefits of connecting with the divine is an increased sense of purpose. Connecting with the divine shifts our focus from problem solving to a clear-eyed view of the grand design of the universe. In doing so, we can increase our understanding of ourselves, as well as our place in the world. This can lead to an enlightenment, a potential increase in confidence, and a deeper level of creativity.

Second, connecting with the divine helps us to be more mindful of others and of the environment. We become more conscious of our ethical obligations and respect the rights of others. We become sensitive to the needs of the planet, and can take action steps to protect it from further damage.

Third, connecting with the divine can also bring about feelings of peace, joy, and love. In connecting with a source that is higher than ourselves, we become open to self-improvement. We cultivate balance, understanding, and patience and come to gain a deeper appreciation for life.

Finally, when we connect with the divine, we may open ourselves up to spiritual gifts. We can receive spiritual insight, divine wisdom, and the strengthening of our connection with divine power. This power can help us overcome difficulties, move on from oppressive situations, and even achieve great success.

Ultimately, whatever your beliefs, connecting with the divine can have positive benefits. Whether it’s an increased sense of purpose, improved mindfulness, or access to spiritual gifts, this connection can help us live our best lives.
