Today, many people flaunt everything that is most intimate: personal life, good deeds, family problems … And, meanwhile, as the wise men advise, it is better to keep silent about some things:
1. The first thing to keep secret is your long-term plans. Keep quiet until this plan comes true. Any of our ideas are not only not ideal, they have a huge number of weak points that are very easy to hit and destroy everything.
2. The second thing the sages recommend is not to share the secret about your charity. A good deed is a great rarity in this world, and that is why it must be protected like the apple of an eye. Don't praise yourself for doing good. Pride will immediately see and take away all the good that came as a result of this charity.
3. The third thing the sages do not recommend spreading about is their asceticism. Do not talk left and right about your dietary restrictions, sleep, sexual relationships, etc. Physical asceticism is beneficial only if it is combined with the emotional component.
4. The fourth thing to keep silent about is about your courage, heroism. Someone gets external tests, and someone internal. External trials are visible, so people receive rewards for them, but no one notices the overcoming of internal trials, therefore no rewards are awarded for them.
5. The fifth, which is not worth dwelling on, is about spiritual knowledge. Spiritual knowledge has different levels and should be revealed only upon reaching a certain level of purity of consciousness. The main mistake of a beginner bearer of truth is the desire to share too high spiritual knowledge, which, instead of bringing good to a person, only confuses and even frightens him even more.
6. The sixth thing you shouldn't share with others is to talk about your domestic conflicts and your family life in general. Remember: the less you talk about problems in your family, the stronger and more stable it will be. A quarrel is getting rid of negative energy that has accumulated in the process of communication.
7. The seventh thing that is not worth talking about is the ugly words that were heard from someone. You can stain your shoes on the street, or you can stain your consciousness. And a person who, having come home, tells everything that he heard from a fool on the way, is no different from a person who came home and did not take off his shoes.
