Sadhguru - spirituality is not speaking kindly to everybody

Oct 22
Woke up just before alarm. Body is awake but no as fresh as previous days. Possibly pre-sleep Samyama was not involved.
Practice my Guru pooja Asanas were fine. Shakti was good with full focus except for second half of third cycle of Kapala. Shambavi was good, head shaking non stop almost at every steps. Towards the end just feel peaceful.

Got this from FB.
Assertiveness for earth angels by Doreen Virtue
If u don't let people know how u feel, they'll incorrectly assume everything is okay. People won't know how you really feel or think unless u tell them.
Assertiveness means u r clear, honest and direct with others. Hinting and hoping the others get the hint never works. This is a guarantee that u always feel ignored and misunderstood. Instead of hinting, u have to clearly communicate ur feelings.
You may worry that if u are truthful, people will leave u. But the truth is you be the one to leave, if u don't muster your courage to be honest. If you don't tell the other person how you really feel, the relationship will be unbalanced, unhealthy and you, as a highly sensitive person won't want to stay.
Being conflict phobic also blocks you from fulfilling the very important mission u were born to do! In order to do light work, u need to reawaken and own your power.

Yeap. That's my motto; to be direct in personal and romantice relationship. When I m truthful I get the real thing or the false thing will leave. Either way is good.

Mystic Musings
If you have made the conclusion that being spiritual means speaking kindly to everybody, you are mistaken. If someone is communicating with different aspects of life in different ways, out of their understanding, out of their sensitivity, out of their experience - they know how to communicate with a baby, a buffalo, a mountain, they know how to speak to the bus driver - they know this out of awareness, then it is wonderful and fine. That's how life should be.
If someone, out of their so-called spirituality, is trying to speak with whatever they believe is kindness or goodness, to every aspect of life, they are just moralistic and stupid. Maybe they are good people but they have no sense of life. There's no inner experience, it's just coming from their goodness and morality. They make good citizens but they won't know anything of the beyond.
Now if one is communicating in different ways with different aspect of life because of their unawareness or because of their prejudices, that's a different aspect altogether.
So how one talks to the bus driver may be a way of seeing where that person is or may not be at all. It is best u don't judge a person by the way they are speaking to a bus driver or to a man on the street at a certain moment.
Now if one has a pattern of addressing something kindly and another aspect of life rudely, then u know It is coming from ignorance. It has nothing to do with spirituality.

Spirituality is not a moral code. Spirituality means you are beginning to experience that which is beyond the physical. It  has got nothing to do with the way u communicate and handle the world around u. The way u do that is just a question of ur capability, ur intelligence, ur exposure, ur inclination and what kind of objectives u have in ur life. So how u communicate is in no way an indication of ur spiritual process.

Soul
So timely. I needed this.
Father, such irony. I tot I was assertive but actually I m not especially in personal and romantic relationships. The next time La throw me shit I will give it back to her.
