This is the most common misconception of people, as they have been brainwashed into having a predetermined mindset about what spiritual people should look like, sound like and move like. From a personal experience, I have received shocking comments and reactions because I don't look like what I write. People have a hard time associating me and my writings.
Being spiritual doesn't mean we are covered in rags or crystals sitting on a mountain top. Being spiritual doesn't mean we don't follow the trends of normal life. Being spiritual doesn't mean we don't use abusive language or slang. Being spiritual doesn't mean we take your shit. Being spiritual doesn't mean we are positive at all times. Being spiritual doesn't mean we don't make mistakes.
Spirituality has got nothing to do with exterior looks, beliefs or methods; but more to do with knowledge of self, balance of energies (negative/positive, inner/outer forces) and your state of consciousness. The Awakened ones walk amongst you, who look like you, talk like you, walk like you, eat like you, but DON'T THINK LIKE YOU.
We all are one form of the myriad of manifestions, of the infinite force called GOD FORCE or CONSCIOUSNESS, that is one at the center of being. We can willingly channel/access higher beings or entities that are assisting us to raise the consciousness of earth.
We live this life of duality daily, by coping up with the constant tension between the revolution of the spirit and hunger of the ego. This makes us seem to have contradictory behavior, imbalances of spirit and mind that fight for power. We have to satisfy the ego to function effectively in this realm.
We are not perfect, we are learning too, but at a different rate, different frequency.
The most common gift of the Awakened individuals is that we realize we are instruments that play divine music. Through us, the universe speaks, in all forms of art (writing, teaching, dancing, singing etc). Don't judge the "spiritual human" for not knowing what the spirit knows.
Don't be surprised the next time you see a ravishing personality adopting a modern lifestyle who IS spiritual.
