What religious/spiritual practices do you do?

[metis]

Do you meditate, dance, pray, read scripture, use a rosary, pull cards, throw lots, lucid dream, use entheogens, walk labyrinths, fast, chant, perform rituals, etc etc?

What are your practices?

I read scripture daily, plus meditate (especially walking meditation), but my emphasis more is on doing that which can help others, especially the poor and/or disenfranchised. .

 

[Mock Turtle]

Listen to Dead Can Dance regularly - amongst many others.

 

[Jainarayan]

What are your practices?

A basic, relatively quick (20 mins. or so) Hindu worship ritual at home at my little shrine. It consists of prayers and mantras, and offerings of the flame of an oil lamp, flowers, fruit, incense, water. I also occasionally attend temple, but not nearly as often as I used to, due to personal circumstances. I try to live as dharmic ("righteous") a life as possible, but I do fall short.

I'm hoping the OP is keeping religion separate from spirituality. Religion has no legitimate claim to being THE authority on spirituality.

My #1 practice is what is called "karma yoga" in the east and "volunteering" in the West. My other practices are repeating the name of God - supposedly for 30 minutes a day but I fall way short and meditating on an image of God.

I try to practice what Ram Dass taught me: Be Here Now

What are your practices?

Simple, heartfelt prayer.

 

[Marcion]

Astaunga Yoga, e.g. Following do's & don'ts (Yama/Niyama) such as Meditation, Yoga exercises, regular Fasting, Yogic Diet, Selfless Service, Scripture Reading, (actually there are Sixteen Points to be followed, including weekly collective meditations (Dharma Chakra), single and collective spiritual dance (Kiirtana), devotional singing (Bhajans), attending seasonal meditation/yoga retreats, dancing Tandava and Kaoshiki).

Go to church on Sunday to sing and worship the Lord, and try to receive Communion when I can. It aligns my life spirit to be in a 90 degree perpendicular with the plane of the Earth like that of the tree of the cross. Receiving communion, I am humbled to remember the sacrifice of Jesus and to look forward to his glorious return in the future.

ETA: I have to add for the flesh, to partake in a grand cup of coffee and a pleasant dessert like a donut afterward isn't that bad, either.

[Hermit]

I've done some lucid dreaming and it was a valuable experience for me. A lot of the time I'll read from spiritual related books or watch videos on that sort of a subject.

 

[MonkeyFire]

I judge the hope of life and the trust of the peoples about to receive it through passive faith.

Namaste @Galateasdream

Welcome to RF.

Over the years I have practised all the ones you described.

"Surrender to God" is all I need

Wish you all the best

It's to be interpreted to suit personal taste

What are your practices?

I am a Jew. I live as a Jew each and every day, from the moment I open my eyes in the morning and say “Modeh ani...” until the moment I prepare for sleep and recite the Sh’ma.

How I fill the hours in between, as a Jew, would take more time to describe than I have available.

No tip of the hat to @rosends?

He gets quite a few when he's online. He has a dogged determination I can appreciate.

I've got no problem with that. It's when a religious person claims that spirituality is always in the domain of religion that I get cranky.

Most days, it is little things.

Saying hello to Squirrel if I see them on the walk into the office.

Smiling at the glory of Sun as they beam their light down upon this beautiful Earth.

Dancing in Snow and marveling at the chemical symmetry of crystalline Water.

Talking about plant friends to anyone whether they are interested in the Green Ones or not.
