    Hi Guys and Girls.

    I have a question regarding the Seal of Silence.

    I have been practising IIH for the past year and a bit. Obviously to
    take it seriously, I've had to introduce some major (but positive)
    aspects of my life.

    Now, when my friends used to say "Come out and do xyz with us", I
    could get out of it by saying I had 'meditation' to do, or I could
    plan my exercises around my friends engagements.

    But now I'm busier, so I have less time to go to all my friend's
    get-togethers. This means I can't usually move my exercises around
    because I have work, or want to see my partner etc. So all I can say
    is "I have meditation to do".

    The thing is, I feel kind of guilty about this, because they assume I
    'meditate' maybe an hour or possibly two at the most, each day. In
    reality, it is more than this, so it comes out looking like I am using
    meditation as an excuse not to see them.

    What I really want to say is;
    I'm pursuing a path of enlightenment
    I'm still friends, but sometimes enlightenment will take precedence.

    Is this revealing too much? I wouldn't ever tell them about Bardon,
    Magic, or any techniques/experiences. And if they asked I would tell
    them it's personal and I don't wish to talk about it specifically.

    Has anyone else gone through this, and what did they do?
    All suggestions are welcome. Please don't hold back, as I am in need
    of some inspiration.

    Thanks, and take care

    Kurt
