Spiritualism is not about acquiring but of letting go. Life that begins with acquiring things, concepts, etc has to end empty. If we had acquired every material possible right from the very cells to a body and attire and position and respect, money and fame, properties and achievements, all these has to go either forcefully in death or willingly before facing death.
It is not that we should not taste life and the pleasures that it has to offer but to be ready to drop them when called for. It is about not getting attached. For one who has emptied himself what appears eventually as darshan is his soul. This is Atma Darisanam. He stands naked and uncloth having dropped the numerous veils and layers. He has entered emptiness or Vetavezhi loosely translated as Eternity.
