Just be who you are, let your light shine by doing right by your wife and children. Don’t stop loving them or try to change them because you’ve found enlightenment somewhere. Consider, if the shoe was on the other foot and she found a more traditional religious path…do you want her trying to convert you?
I agree... There is no conversion possible. Only her free choice to do what she pleases. You can read, let her know you like what you read. But everything beyond that must be her own initiative. If you try to put it on her, then you will be inviting her into ego games actually lowering the chance she'll follow you. If you keep this for yourself, and grow as big a lightbulb in your chest as you can she'll like it and start asking questions. She'll then be naturally attracted to the material through her attraction to you. (The most attractive quality in a man or a woman is that the person is genuinely happy.)
Also, here's a Sufi trick. If you speak to her, speak in her own words. Don't use the sometimes odd Ra vocabulary certainly if she does not respond well to it. Use her own vocabulary if you can. It's okay to let her know the other words exist. But it's more important to give her the opportunity to take what she likes and leave what she does not like than it is for her to intellectually accept the whole thing.
For what it's worth. My wife does not have a high opinion of religion new age or the Ra material. She has a stubborn streak like me and she fortunately won't accept it just because I say so. She used to be more into it. But she's a good person, she'll be fine.
