Spiritual Correctness & How to Snap out of It

Do you ever find yourself stifling your own free speech, your own freedom of expression for fear of what others might think?

There exists an attitude of mind that silences us, makes us shrink, stifles us from expressing ourself.

We might think, "So and so could find it offensive so I won’t say anything," "I should only speak spiritual words of love and beauty dipped in sugar and fairy dust," or "He or she won't like me if I talk about this," and "Don’t bring that up, it’s negative," and a whole array of stop signs our minds can drudge up about our spiritual and personal development path and who and how we should be.

Creating Blocks

What is happening at the level of energy, is the creating of a psychological box to limit ourselves in. An energetic wall we are building up which has the effect of blocking our creative energy from flowing free.

Little prisons we create with which to suppress the expression of our free and independent thought as an appeasement of our own fear of looking either good or bad in the eyes of others.

It is clear to me that political correctness has not served to better or improve any situation to which it is applied.

Political correctness operates on you not speaking out, you declining to point out, you not examining out in the open something which is accurate and factual for fear of someone out there opting to be offended.

Sometimes we try to impose that same prison on others.

This attitude of mind called political correctness crosses over into the realm of spiritual ideas, practices and beliefs.

Spiritual Correctness

We refer to it as spiritual correctness. When this attitude of mind rears its head into your affairs, left unchecked, your heart will wish to express one thing but your mind and its story that it should be spiritually correct stops you from expressing that which you desire.

The fact of the matter is, you cannot control how people hear and receive your message. And further, you are not existing on the planet to please and appease everyone. I believe you are here to develop yourself, share yourself, express yourself and bring your unique perspective and your gifts and talents to this world.

What you do have control over is the most important thing you could have control over anyway, and what you have control over is how you deliver your message.

You have control over the state of consciousness you are delivering your message in, you have control over the energy and words you use to convey your message. You have control of your internal mind and spirit/energy atmosphere and when you make adjustments from there, from the level of Cause, you will see corresponding effects that follow.

Conscious Delivery

The way you deliver your message is everything. Your motives behind why you are doing what you are doing, your motives behind why you are saying what you are saying, will determine your approach. And your approach, the energy of your approach, will attract to itself similar energies.

If you have something to say and the message you have about a topic might be considered controversial to yourself or others, this is an opportunity to expand and practice your approach. To practice your delivery, practice setting your mind and spirit/energy atmosphere before you approach anyone with your message.

You can express yourself in a way that is fulfilling to you at all levels and that imparts the essence of your message to another clearly and effectively. You can deliver your message in a way that is authentic and true to your curiosity or your conclusion.

If your intention is to share and help harmoniously, that energy will come through your message and influence others in that direction.

If your intention is to convert by fear manipulation or other type of inharmonious force, that energy will come through your message and influence others in that direction.

And each approach will mirror back to you in some fashion what you projected by and through your approach. Whether speaking with an individual in a casual conversation or to large groups of people, that same principle applies.

The key is to pause prior to your expression, and set your own energy to the vibrations you want to emit and attract, and then go for the gusto. Be you and be you confidently, knowing you’ll reap the very essences of what you’ve sown.

Now go on and express your beautiful self!
