"THE spiritual being.".....as written by Loong.
There is no ONE spiritual being. Children are all very unique. There is no spiritual being that describes all children. The spirit that resides within a child is individual to that child.
What I was indicating in my article is that there is an inner spirit within the child that comes through. Children do ask spiritual questions, and yes, they will be guided by their parents. The point is, children ASK.
They want to know to satisfy an inner curiosity about why they are here. They are already dealing with spiritual issues within themselves at a very young age. Of course this is developed over time, as a child matures enough to understand what is going on within themselves.
I am not going to paraphrase my entire article here. I have given instances in my article to show that children do show that they have spirituality. Not everyone will agree with my article and that is fine. It is just my view that I wanted to share with my readers, and everything I write is always open to friendly and respectful feedback.
