You Call That Spiritual?!!

[Guest guest]

Over and over again, I have seen that when someone gets sick,

especially when they are really sick as with cancer, the first

response from their " spiritual " friends is, " What's your unfinished

business that's causing this disease in you? " It is a rush to blame

and to demonstrate that ill affected person's incompetent handling of

their life and their irresponsibility regarding their deeply unhealed

pain.

 

Those " friends " seem to scream, " It's all your fault that you got

sick! Now just do a lot of meditation to cure yourself. And if you

don't cure yourself, well, then perhaps it's your fault that you are

not strong enough, spiritual enough, or developed enough to heal

yourself! "

 

I even know of one fellow who didn't tell any of his friends that he

had cancer! He realized that he would not get the support he needed,

so he chose to not be burdened by their really hurtful lecturing and

subtle blaming. Instead, he traveled that very difficult path to

healing alone! Imagine!

 

Oh, my heart thuds on the floor every time I get a whiff of this

ugliness!!
