Perhaps the most "spiritual" thing any of us can do is simply to look through our own eyes, see with eyes of wholeness, and act with integrity and kindness.

Just watch this moment, without trying to change it at all. What is happening? What do you feel? What do you see? What do you hear?

The only time that any of us have to grow or change or feel or learn anything is in the present moment. But we're continually missing our present moments, almost willfully, by not paying attention.

From the perspective of meditation, every state is a special state, every moment a special moment.

When experience is viewed in a certain way, it presents nothing but doorways into the soul.

Perhaps ultimately, spiritual simply means experiencing wholeness and interconnectedness directly, a seeing that individuality and the totality are interwoven, that nothing is separate or extraneous. If you see in this way, then everything becomes spiritual in its deepest sense. Doing science is spiritual. So is washing the dishes.

Perhaps we just need little reminders from time to time that we are already dignified, deserving, worthy.
