Spiritual Practice
From across cultures and time
Ritual and ceremony and sacrifice.
Deities and holy icons and sacred symbols.
Drums and choirs and mantras.
Meditation and prayer and quiet reflection.
Blessings and healings and the laying on of hands.
What are you practicing to become?
Has your practice grown larger than its purpose?
If you don’t know … stop … examine carefully,
And only proceed
Once you rediscover your deeper intentions,
Then focus how you practice accordingly.
This is my journey
