My 'spiritual practices' would seem very weird to most.
Sure, I have studied Sanskrit, Meditation, The Yoga Sutras, the Bhagavad Gita, Ramayana, Shiv Puran and other things.
I have taken a lot of my teachings from these, but no matter how much I go into these things, I feel like I am no better off than before I started....maybe I wasn't meant to really understand it...thus, I started listening to my 'inner Guru'.
So, I was talking about Trataka, which led me into a very weird practice I was totally addicted to for many years.
Rather than explain it, I'll give you some examples to meditate/do Trataka on.
Many more of these can be found all over the internet.
Enjoy.
