"Spirituality is the transcendent in our own existence"
“Nothing exists for its own sake, nothing is valid by its own right. What seems to be a purpose is but a station on the road. All is set in the dimension of the holy. All is endowed with bearing on God…This is what we mean by the term ‘spiritual’: It is the reference to the transcendent in our own existence, the direction of the Here toward the Beyond…It is impossible to grasp spirit in itself. Spirit is a direction, the turning of all beings to God: theotropism....

"Much on earth is concealed from us"
“Much on earth is concealed from us, but in place of it we have been granted a secret, mysterious sense of our living bond with the other world, with the higher heavenly world, and the roots of our thoughts and feelings are not here but in other worlds. That is why philosophers say it is impossible on earth to conceive the essence of things.

What was the most sacred experience in your life?
“Was it a moment of love? A moment of beholding the awe of nature’s beauty or being moved by a stirring song, the birth of a child or being in the presence of a wise person?”
In what ways are you devoted to a false god?

What is sacred to you? The sacred is reality, purpose, being. What is most real to you? What lies in the secret chambers of your heart, in your unconscious? Money? Family? Success? Happiness?
Look for the good. Think of the worst person you know. Do you say bad things about them? Do you treat them with contempt? Can you say one good thing about them?

Spirituality Challenge
Begin with humility. Assume that you are ignorant, that every one of your assumptions are incorrect. That everything constructed by society is false. Begin by admitting that you are bewitched, seduced by whatever you are most fond of. Fight the idea that the greatest thing in life is to satisfy your interests or needs.
Be quiet and still, like a leaf at dawn, just before the dawn, when silence fills the air and drops of dew are forming around you. The world of brute matter, of grasping, seething desires, don't affect you anymore. Everything extraneous has blown away.
“By foregoing beauty for goodness, power for love, grief for gratitude, by entreating the Lord for help to understand our hopes, for strength to resist our fears, we may receive a gentle sense of the holiness permeating the air."
Abraham Heschel

"Spirituality means aliveness. Spirituality is never a private affair. Grateful living is a building of networks upon networks. It’s a communal affair, and it’s revolutionary."
