The practice of daily rituals can become a very powerful way of experiencing the sacred.  A way to remember what we may have forgotten, but has never gone away.  It's a practice because it takes time and repetition and patience to begin the experience of feeling the sacred within, beside, and all around us.  It's taking the time to make a window within time, where we can feel at rest, peace, tranquility, serenity, and a presence, that could mean many things to many different people, yet it is all the same sacred light.
