Over the years, I have heard A LOT of misconceptions and “lies” about spirituality and being a spiritual person. I will address some of those misconceptions and lies in this article.
Growing up in a family where everyone is open to spirituality, and all have some sort of abilities, I have always had a very neutral view on spirituality and being a spiritual person. We talk about spiritual events and experiences like other families talk about the weather and what’s going on in the world. In other words, It’s COMPLETELY normal to talk about supernatural activities when we are out and about… or sharing something that popped in on our psychic radar.
I started my first spiritual-based business in 2008. The public view on spirituality and how a spiritual person should behave was slightly different from what it is today. Thank God we are moving in a direction where non-spiritual people get less judgmental. As a professional Spiritual Teacher and Spiritual Counsellor, I have heard so much bullshit you won’t believe it!
My grandmom often told me that it’s best that we keep anything spiritual within the family and the house’s four walls because people outside won’t understand. While I don’t believe it’s healthy to hide who you are, I will admit that I understand why she advised me not to practice spirituality in public.
People can be really mean toward anything that is different from what they are comfortable with. I think the difference between my grandmom and me is that I don’t really feel I have any other choice than being a Spiritual Teacher and helping other Lightworkers to heal and create a life in Light and Love for themselves.
It’s not a choice – it’s a call – the purpose of my incarnation!
… and because I don’t want to let others succeed in bullying me into being “normal” or being the way they think I should be! I don’t want to live like a shadow of myself so random people feel more comfortable with their limiting beliefs and lack of tolerance for diversity. I’m not going to play that game!
Let’s get started…
Lie #1: Spirituality and Religion are the Same Things.
You can be religious and spiritual at the same time.
You can also be spiritual without being religious.
Or religious without being spiritual.
It’s a common mistake to mix those two terms together.
Religion is a set of rules, principles and dogma people choose to live by and some view it as the only Truth. The thing with religion is it’s human-made.
Every religion that ever existed, exists or will exist is made by humans as a guideline of how to live a better life and get to Heaven when we die.
Spirituality, on the other hand, is the acknowledgement that there is something more than the naked eye can see.
It’s the acknowledgement of Spirit – which really is another word for Energy.
Spiritual people are often open-minded and focused on living a life in Light and Love and having Peace of Mind. We use whatever techniques and tools that feel right for us… shopping around, and picking and choosing from all the opportunities there are. This is why some spiritual practices are inspired by certain religions.
Religious people tend to stick with one way of doing things, and that’s what is written in their religion’s Holy text!
