Questions for the night: How do we exist spiritually / express spirituality outside of the boundaries of institutional religion, in our everyday lives? Main modes: collection of sacred, holy, magical, or otherwise meaningful objects, the media we take in, the language we use and the messages we communicate. Our primary tools for communication today (apart from physical, face-to-face contact) is technology: computers (laptops, tablets, and others), cell phones, the Internet, etc. Through and/or with contemporary technology, like the internet, iPhones, tablet computers, etc, how can we expand / acknowledge existing notions of mysticism (the search for purpose and meaning in the universe) and spirituality? What kinds of applications could these things have for a personal spiritual practice, like this event tonight? Questions for Facebook audience: Do you collect anything that expresses your spirituality? What object or objects are part of your personal spiritual practice. If you don’t consider yourself a spiritual person, do you have an object (or objects) that is especially meaningful in your life? What is it? Why is it special to you?
