Spirituality is not about beliefs

I promote experiential spirituality. Christianity (which we all get steeped in) is uniquely obsessed with belief, but it’s not actually necessary to believe anything in order to experience what is bigger & beyond, or deep within. This experience is not a mind thing anyway–that’s the whole point. You can’t fully understand, map, dissect, analyze, or measure it. The Tao that can be named is not the eternal Tao. Spirituality is about learning to see and feel what is outside ordinary awareness, but always present. I am fiercely protective of your right to do this in any way that works for you, because it’s nobody else’s business what your path looks like. Spirituality is your own relationship with Reality and it’s up to you to build it, it will be unique to you, and it doesn’t have to look like anyone else’s.
