Family In DISAGREEMENT On My Spiritual Path - What To Do? | Q& A With Swami Mukundananda

In this podcast, Swami Mukundananda answers a question related to progress in the Spiritual Path of a seeker when his or her family is in disagreement with the Spiritual Path the person is undertaking. While our family and friends may or may not encourage us to progress in our spiritual journey, the way reacts to it is completely within our control. The goal is to continue progressing in our journey despite any obstacles in our life. When our family members express their disagreement on the spiritual path we are undertaking, we should give them the benefit of the doubt. We should also be more intelligent in handling things with them, knowing what we can and cannot change within our family with regard to spirituality. Once we have this understanding, we should try to help them by giving them the knowledge of the spiritual path and its importance, while moving on with the things that we cannot change. This way we will be undisturbed in our spiritual journey despite any disagreements. The good news is one person progressing in spiritual path has the potential to transform the complete Family into getting into this path and attain the divine bliss of God.
