Should you tell your partner, your friends and your co-workers about your spiritual beliefs?

When I first learned of the Law of Attraction, I kept insanely quiet about it and did not let on to any of my friends or family about it. I studied in silence as my inner-being was awaking to something that felt so right to me.

My immediate family do know about my spiritual beliefs and so do my closest friends, yet I don’t believe its always right to go out and tell anyone about your beliefs.

As humans we have a desire within us to share something that we believe to be “right” and “true”. What we are really seeking is validation. We want someone to agree with us and tell us we’re doing a great job and you’re on the right path. Of course, someone else’s opinion should mean nothing to you – what you think is the only opinion that counts.

Many people just aren’t ready to hear about spiritualism. There will come a time when it is a necessity, but right now the majority of people are still stuck in their habitual thinking patterns and overruled by ego.

My personal family are quite the same and are firmly rooted with their ego’s. The fact was and is, that they are just not ready for what us “Law of Attraction practitioners” know. (If you practice the LOA then I call you a practitioner.)

That’s not a bad thing, nor is it a good thing. It “just is”. I don’t try and change anyones beliefs unless they seek the change themselves.

Coming back to the point of this blog post… should you stay silent or should you let on about the spiritual side of you? I say follow your gut instinct in every instance. If you feel compelled to share and it feels right for you to do so, then do so! Even if the initial response you get is not what you were expecting, you’ve probably just planted a seed that will continue to grow for that person.

On the other hand, if it doesn’t feel right for you to say anything about it, then that is the right thing for you to do. I was like this with my family for a long period of time.

Eventually, I stepped up the courage and followed my gut instinct to share the film “The Secret” with my brother. He responded to the film just like I did when I first watched it and he felt a new awakening within. Although he hasn’t taken any action to further his development, the seeds have been planted. I’m certain that when things become too miserable for him to handle, he’ll turn to that side of him that was awoken for just a few minutes that day.

Pain and misery are responsible for so much conscious awakening that it can’t possibly be considered “bad”. Investigate all of the “gurus” and their pasts… you’ll very quickly realize that it is the pain and misery that pushed them to where they are today.
