Following are some ways that can help one start living a more spiritual life. I would like to emphasize the living aspect, as opposed to thinking about being more spiritual. I feel that a lot of these actions are steps toward a healthier, more peaceful life in which one feels more whole.* I think of these sometimes, but always have to dig out my book to look at them. Maybe now they can be of better help to me and to whomever happens to stumble upon this site.
*a feeling rather difficult to come by in our modern times.
