Studying "spiritual" matters is always connected to a consciousness-related process. Every individual must be mentally prepared to confront himself with truth, and he should also get the chance to work for this preparedness himself.
The awesome respect for all life is an awesome attitude towards life that harbors only within itself the key to knowledge, truth and all realization.
Never let yourself be enticed—because of sheer enthusiasm for truth or a craving for recognition, among other things—to perform propaganda or missionize in order to win or convince other people of your own learnings. In doing so you can do great harm to yourself as well as to others.
Do not turn the study of lessons into a secret or impart a feeling into the fellow-man that he has not progressed far enough in order to understand this or that. Such behavior would not only represent an unjustified self-exaltation of the own person but also a lack of respect and awe for another individual. Likewise one should always bear in mind that one isn’t all-knowing and that one’s own understanding of lessons is always more or less limited.
It should be considered by everyone that oneself and the fellow-men are led astray with half- or false-truth and, because of this, the path to and the finding of truth is impeded.
Of course, no person shall hide his light under a bushel, and if any information is necessary or appropriate, or if interested people ask questions, then obviously they can get explanations—within reasonable limits and according to one’s best skill and abilities. Consequently, if one is talking about their learnings it shall always be in a general manner and according to one’s own understanding. Talking about all cognitions, assumptions etc. right from the start should be avoided.
