REALITY CHECK

The Talmud reads, "Never pray in a room without windows." Never pray without the world in mind, in other words. The purpose of the spiritual life is not to save us from reality. It is to enable us to go on co-creating it. - Sr. Joan Chittister

Well said.

I'd like to see a stronger emphasis of this aspect of faith. Often what's been made of religion is a personal reward/punishment system.
