Spiritual shenanigans get me thinking rather a lot these days as I realise that much of what is presented as truth is smoke and mirrors; not necessarily untrue but, unnecessarily knotty.
Concepts are, often, overly complicated to bamboozle, astound and confound.
Much of what is offered is verbose and convoluted as some teachers appear to delight in their own intellect and are, perhaps, motivated by selling you their own particular flavour of spirituality.
My team in spirit often remind me;
”Beware the false prophet.”

Words have the power to clarify or confuse and in spiritual buzz words such as dualism, paradigm, exponentially and paradox are oft overused and, I find, mightily peevesome, (a worm I just made up for the craic!), as they cloud the purity of message.
My point here is why crap on, using big words - over complicating and gilding the lily!
Why use a 1000 words, and some, when a smaller gathering of well-chosen and grouped consonants and vowels will suffice?
Is it not a little arrogant to ramble on and presume upon any readers precious time?
(This point is pertinent across all disciplines and, I note, Steemit has its fair share of grandiose wordy warblers. ~ No judgement there then Linda! Humm.)

Thinkers abound and often have a propensity for verbosity which risks alienating any audience and leaving them cold and confuddled in their wake.
My particular spin on spirituality, which I have termed Kitchen Sink Spirituality, is a bare-bones deal, easily accessible to all – perhaps too simplified for some.
Huge tomes exist on the subject of Spirituality with intelligent arguments drawing from historical wisdom, religious doctrines, bright minds and acknowledged sages to substantiate and put forward convincing arguments for leading principles. This is all nice and nifty but can be a little highbrow.
I see a need for straightforward spirituality which is readily accessible to all.

Enter – no nonsense, simple language Kitchen Sink Spirituality.
With the help of my, in Spirit, Spiritual Team I am drawn to brevity and non-denominational spirituality and look forward to sharing more with you in the coming weeks and months.
With Love.
