Overview

Unfortunately, an idea that has taken root in the Indian psyche over theast 1,000 years is that spiritualife and worldlyife are poles apart. In the busy worldlyife in which one is simply moving from one concrete task to another, ""where is the time for spirituality?' is a common complaint. What we forget is that spirituality can enter everything that we do. Hence, without neglecting any of our obligations and responsibilities, and without spending any extra time, we canead a spiritualife. Spirituality enhances, enriches and ennobles worldlyife. Spirituality bringsove, peace, joy and fulfilment toife. Spirituality helps us discover and realize the true purpose ofife. Spirituality makes the world a better place toive in. In recent times, Sri Aurobindo and the Mother have been pioneers in not only expounding a stronglyife-affirming spiritual philosophy but also demonstrating in their ashram at Pondicherry that the philosophy can be put into practice. What Is Spiritual about Being Punctual?, based on their philosophy, has more than 30 essays on topics ranging from punctuality to photography, topics which would rarely be considered to have anything to do with spirituality. Yet, these essays show how each of these has a spiritual angle to it.
