Happy Halloween. We are a day ahead in the Philippines.
--"How many lifetimes more will it take for my soul to evolve like yours? or
What does it take for my consciousness to mature?"
Everyone has his/her own pace of spiritual evolution. The elevation of spirit is gradual, like the sequential progress of a work of fine art. Patience and tolerance, not scrupulousness and obsessive-compulsiveness, are of utmost importance.
The maturity of consciousness is directly correlated with compassion for others, empathy, and charity. War is its direct antithesis.
--"Is this something you ask the Divine, and if not, is there a way to expedite the process?"
It is not something you need ask, because everything is already set in motion, and all you have to do is fulfill it to the best of your ability. Walking from one distance to another is expedited by taking a taxi, but walking can be far more pleasurable. It is, therefore, how you take your journey that matters, not how fast you can make it.
--"How do I come to a state of only being mindful of what is right? or
How do I completely banish my lower proclivities?"
Listen to your heart. Hold fast only to truth. Your dreams should be clear objectives and not surreal illusions.
Acknowledge your weaknesses and do not deny them. Identify channels that can relieve you in private and without involving other people. These channels then function as your safety valves.
I often think about you, and I wish you all the best.
