I think you are referring to the same thing I refer to as "the essence of being"...
Isn't "essence" something inherent... If it's inherent, it's not something that needs to be (or even CAN be) attained or learned...it is not something we can become. We can not change essence - it is as it is.
So if spirituality is "bringing that essence into the physical world, via the physical body, through the use of words, actions, etc.", is it possible to bring forth ANYTHING that is NOT essence? Isn't "essence" EVERYTHING? And, therefore, isn't spirituality the bringing forth of everything into the physical world? Or perhaps it's the awareness that EVERYTHING IS 'the essence of being'. There is NOTHING that is NOT "the essence of being".
So, isn't the "real recipe for happiness" simply being aware of being here on this planet, and being aware that EVERYTHING here on this planet is a physical manifestation of "the essence of being"?

Huh? Could you give me a specific example of that? I need an example to ground me, thank you.

In one of my PEAT sessions for the first time I realized the Static or Unpotentiated Potential or Un-Essence (lol) and then when the PEAT instructor had me come back to where I was here, it felt like a child always knowing that mommy was there.

Have experienced similar a few times since but not often enough to attempt to express "what cannot be expressed" as the TAO would put it.

But it is real enough and feels like home where you can just relax and be yourself.

Once one has experienced this state a few times the goal post gets moved further back: No longer am I disproportionately concerned about upgrading my mediocre life here on planet earth -- riches, fame, doughnuts.

Eternal awareness of eternity and myself as a sovereign being, Prime Mover Unmoved.
