Why are we attracted to beautiful things - that are dangerous

Just because I use the word spiritual, what it manifests in a person need not be other worldly. A spiritually evolved person is still a human being but one whose mind is balanced. This is reflected in his thoughts and actions, in his strategies, in his objectives and so on.

Srinivasan Vaidyaraman

devotion is a type of emotion, recently MR. GOPALA KRSHNA GANDHI @ Krishna gana sabha echoed his grand fathers words intelligence needs to be mixed with gnana to get the appropriate emotions.

BTW, i agree with SV, eastern psychology stresses on the need for spirituality to diminish anxiety ... while the western psychology fixes perfectionism as one of the cause for anxiety.
 
The above are some of the traits I can think of in a spiritually evolved person.

Not really Sravna.....

We always need to keep options open cos we might be good today but who knows what we might do tomorrow..so if we are not confident on how good we can be..the best thing to do is not think bad of others and act Holier Than Thou....its just playing safe...so no one can say "OMG look at him/her acted so good before but now look at him/her?"

so if we play low profile..no one can ever guess what we really are..so even if we do turn bad no one can taunt us cos we never had the Holier Than Thou attitude.

So do you still really want to think that this sort of thinking is spiritually evolved?? I call it the "Disclaimer Thinking"!LOL
 
Phoolan Devi.

In case of the bandit queen it was a revenge killing...She was recklessly fearless without using her brains...When she was targetting the Kshatriyas in her earlier Avatar, she should have known the consequences...Without any plan she gave up weapons!

I feel that being educated helps in the endeavor along with the traits mentioned

Rji I like the comment about keeping a low profile .most will give us the benefit of doubt in the event we fall into disrepute for some reason or other. one can remain reserved and uncommunicative ,most most will consider us even spiritually evolved
 
When we are keeping a low profile it will control our ego. …We will not get boastful or talk ill about others…We will not go for a powerdressing…..We will be a better listener…May be pick up a new hobby such as gardening or music…We will not be aloof but we will not become a topic ofdiscussion..We will find less of rancor and more of peace with this approach
