When Spirituality Becomes Performance

Performance is not the same as liturgy. Liturgy is a shared form. Performance is a self being watched as spiritual. The tells: a voice you only use for the sacred, a feed of dawns, an inability to be unimpressive.

CapSage's paper-and-red house is a bias against this. We still like beauty. We do not like a glow that cannot do the washing. If your practice needs an audience, try a week of the same practice with the door shut. Survive the lack of evidence that you are the kind of person who practises.

A path that cannot be ordinary will eventually be fake.
