Basically it is your choice. No matter what spiritual path you have taken, no matter what experiences you have had, choice is still choice. Spiritual development doesn’t happen automatically. It is choosing the eye of Tao that sees both the whole view of things from a distance and the core of reality from deep inside.Ilchi Lee

The word choice has many meanings. It is our ability to choose what we do and who we are, or it can mean choosing the best option. A similar word is chance. Chance is used to describe how random things occur.
So, spiritual development happens when we make the right choices. Choice means looking for meaning in life, meaning that validates our existence and purpose.
