SiP is always a work in progress. While perfection is the goal, we need to keep the “I” or ego in check to gain the most of it. This website is named “Sipractce” intentionally! We become more spiritual and less self-centered or ego driven, when we sublimate the nation of “I” and become one with nature! To remind us of this simple but profound principle, the letter “i” has been dropped from the title of this website !!
There is a page with blog posts for those interested in reading essays on life in general. Now there are over 200 essays and growing!
In our rush to do better, feel better and be happy, we tend to miss a large part of who we are, what we already have and the happiness which is natural and within us all the time. When we stop, look around and “smell the roses” on hand, then it becomes easier to do better in whatever we are doing. Good feelings and a genuine happiness also comes forth as naturally as the water flows down stream or the rain soaks the dry earth, thus making things grow on their own! This is Spirituality in Practice!
