Yes I do. However, some people think that spirituality is based on "faith" in an ideal or ideology. They must discipline themselves to validate and keep alligiance to their faith by whatever means. Others, like myself, think that spirituality is based in realization of a greater truth about the self and about "being." They must engage in contemplation, experimentation, and transformational practices to alight on new insights and then go beyond conceptualization and insight to rest in being. In the East, the faith-based path are called Bhakti yoga (the path of devotion). The knowledge-based path is called Jnana yoga (path of gnosis). Both are considered valid means to the same goal.

Take your place as Master over your mind or you will be it's Slave. You will not "Know" as long as you permit the mind to formulate beliefs and color all that you are experiencing. Mind will not allow you to be full present, in the present. All it's time spent in interpreting what is happening, is all the time you are missing " What IS Happening.
