Welcome back to our Spiritual Forum, where we explore the Path of Spiritual evolution on planet Earth.
Many Spiritual Lineages - from Christian to Pagan and beyond - all offer the same guidance:-
“Do good ... be good ...”
How often have you heard your Elders say: “If you can’t say something good, then don’t say anything at all”.
Yes, I know, sometimes when we hear something repeated over and over again it kind of loses value ... we think that it’s cliché, or even ‘Old men babble’ ... but seriously now, can you
consider, even for a moment, that things become ‘cliché’ because they contain some kind of ‘universal truth’ ... something that still has value and meaning hundreds of years later ... ?
O.K., so what’s the deal with ‘Being good’, and resisting the urge to say something bad about others ?
Simple - it reflects an Inner State of Consciousness ... basically, your actions and words tell the whole world the level of Light and Enlightenment you have reached ... in essence, you
reveal your whole Being through your statements ... no longer hiding behind wealth / status / or a pretty dress ... nope, you just showed everyone who you really are ...
Why is this important ?
Well, if you claim that you are in a ‘true Love relationship’, then consider how you speak to one another ... and what you may say or do behind the other’s back ... and ... what does this say about you ...
[and once you realize this, then ask yourself Why you want to be in this type of relationship ?]
None of this is judgment [though it may appear so] ... it is simply designed to get you to your proper place - one where you ‘fit in’, surrounded by people just like you, all with the same
values and outlook ... one where you truly belong...
If you are a carnivore, why are you dating a vegan ... if you absolutely love ballet and classical music, why would you date a heavy-metal musician ... if you embrace holistic healing
practices, why would you argue with western medical practitioners ...
It’s not about feeling superior to others, or thinking that we can teach them to be just like us [that’s just Ego on our part] ... remember - we all walk the Path at our own pace ... and that we blossom best when surrounded by like-minded people.
