The Internet is brimful with people selling good advice: what to eat, how to feel, how to sharpen a lawn mower blade, how to spot a psychopath, what will happen to you after your death, the truth about 911, vaccines, Putin's secret plans... On and on, endlessly. Everything is there - for sale. Views generate ads and money.
Spirituality is also a business these days. Like everything else, it's for sale on the Internet. Selling spirituality on YouTube is like selling snake oil at a country fair. This is why I don't tell strangers about my spiritual life and experiences. I no longer give to the dogs what is holy. I don't want to be mixed up with hustlers.
Artists should also keep their sacred artwork to themselves and close friends. True art is not a business activity.
It is okay to publicly discuss how to grow potatoes, sharpen lawn mower blades, what you think about the current political situation, and how to paint sunsets. Stuff like that. True spirituality, on the other hand, is a private thing. It is esoteric. This part of yourself should be kept sacred and secret.
