538: Defining “Spirituality”

what people think of as spirituality - crystals, dream catchers, burning sage / spirituality from the sacred texts - recognizing and respecting the soul & Supersoul within every living being and becoming free of fear & lamentation / spirituality is the awareness that we're all in the network of God’s energy / yoga means focus - sadhana is the practice, sadhya is the goal / the principles of spiritual practice are simple but the application involves nuance / practices of fasting & silence / solitude creates an opportunity to connect to God within / clear the mind so it can focus on service to Krishna / Bhakti is about what we hold as sacred in the heart & mind
