One way to avoid a spiritual path or any inclusion of a God in your life, is to have the attitude that whatever you do, you will "run the show" yourself. If you have any character defects, and we all have some bad habits or attitudes, then those defects will become the guiding energy. Selfish? Selfish people run the show selfishly but they generally do not think they are being selfish. They just avoid any second opinions. No listening ear. Running the show yourself eventually leads to misery for you and others. Loneliness is sure to enter the picture too. I try to remind myself to be open to second opinions, especially God's opinion, which I will only hear in a prayer of silence and uncluttered mind. Meditation helps lots here.
