I like this thought on the expression of spiritual practice, from the book I am reading this weekend - Jack Kornfield ' A Path with Heart: A Guide through the Perils and Promises of Spiritual Life '.

" We must begin with ourselves. The universal truths of spiritual life can come alive only in our personal circumstances. This personal approach to practice honours the timeless and mysterious dance of birth and death, and also our particular body, our particular family and community, the personal history and the joys and sorrows that have been given to us. In this way, our awakening is a very personal matter that also affects all other creatures on earth ".
