Practical Spirituality: The Art and Science of Conscious Living

This essay argues how practical spirituality involves the art and science of conscious living. Conscious living involves silencing the continuous chatter of the mind in a relaxed playful manner and looking within to connect with what is going inside us. At the same time being in touch with what is happening outside. Then putting together both these aspects in such a manner that neither is overpowering the other; and experiencing a gentle flow of events that happens naturally, without deciding or fixing anything ahead of the time. The essay argues how conscious living is a reality and possibility in our every day life and relevant for everybody rather than only for the so-called spiritually enlightened.
