Having just returned from spending nearly a month in India, a country widely known for it’s contribution to spirituality, I witnessed the shamelessness of the people’s practice of spirituality throughout their everyday lives. Rather than being compartmentalized to just one time or place, e.g. one-hour devotional worship on Sundays, spirituality appeared to permeate the various domains of their lives. While collaborating with my Indian friends on an educational mission, I realized that they indeed practiced a “well-integrated” form of spirituality that Pargament described as positively impacting well-being.
