One way I think about this conundrum is: Does secrecy serve to perpetuate power; or it does it honor the mystery that can never be fully disclosed? Who am I to judge?
I think too about what Jung said that some secrets are important not to tell for the telling will flatten the potential potency of the seed secreted in the soul. It's like there are some experiences I have had in my life that should only be told to certain people, not out of shame, but out of my wish to have them as deeply received as they deserve to be; cherished. I want to keep them free of too many words. When experience becomes a "story," it gains in recognition, but it loses in depth.
