Giving advice

[kristina]

Is it wise to tell someone to stop seeing a person that you think is bad for them?

This could be a friend, mate or even a family member whom I find dishonorable or maybe out of ignorance, insecurity, ... hurts the one who has requested council.

The main intention here is to prevent them from getting hurt by that person and also not take in their energies/distortions. a kind of disappointed and cold separation would achieve that. yet somewhere in my heart I wouldn't want people to part.. u know.

One may think it's reasonable to tell another to do as he himself would have done. but I think a better choice is to tell them what is deemed to be proper for them. but what if we're wrong?

If they have requested council you can offer the best advice you have to offer in my opinion.
Although, I feel how can one clearly see what is best for another's journey spiritually speaking? I know that it's wrong for someone to deceive another but I have actually seen a lot of healing come from deceit. This is very touchy actually as you would never advise someone to stay in a dangerous situation so you would naturally tell your friend to leave because you wanted them to be safe. Happiness, content and joy must be sought after by the person who feels otherwise and cannot be taught by a friend or a loved one. Those are spiritual lessons for the self to the self. Well, and even safety as you can advise someone to leave and they remain. I hope all works out for the person in question and because you are asking, I am sure that you are a cherished friend to this person. Hope all is well. good question
