Spiritual Enlightenment: The Narcissist’s Barrier
Some of the most dangerous narcissists you will ever meet are the religious ones, the ones who wear holiness like a costume. They know every scripture quote, every verse, perform every ritual, but they do it like a performance, not to serve or surrender, but to control. They are not trying to connect with God; they are trying to become Him.
True godliness is built on humility, on accountability, on deep reflection. You look in the mirror and ask yourself, “Where am I wrong?” You bow your head not just in prayer, but in surrender. You seek truth, not validation, and you change over and over because growth is a fundamental part of spiritual maturity. A narcissist cannot do that. They cannot kneel in front of anything bigger than their ego. Their ego is their god. They cannot handle the idea that they are not the ultimate authority. So, instead o
f submitting to God, they use God. They twist holy words to follow their ego. They weaponize faith to shame others. They put themselves on a pedestal and demand worship, all while pretending they are just servants of God. But nothing could be further from the truth. A true godly person feels love, compassion, and remorse. They are moved by the suffering of others. They are grateful for the blessings they receive. A narcissist does not feel any of that. They do not want to serve God; they want God to serve them.
And that is why they will never attain true enlightenment. They may fool people; they may build a cult of followers, but they are completely disconnected from the divine because the divine does not reside in pride, performance, or power. It lives in truth, and narcissists spend their entire lives running from it. They remain spiritually blind, no matter how holy they pretend to be.
They can read every sacred book, attend every sermon, lead every prayer, but they will never know God because their hearts are closed, their intentions are corrupt, and their version of religion is just another mask. That’s why they stay lost forever, seeking something higher while being unable to leave the prison of their ego.
