The predisposition of
the mind and heart
to enjoy the symbols
that lead to faith
demands among other things
a freedom from automatisms
and routines and candid
liberation from external
social dictates, from
conventions, limitations,
and mechanisms which
restrict understanding
and inhibit experience
of the new, the unexpected.

I think I know what you’re saying here, Tony, but I think you’d agree that routines that make time or space for us to let go, like quiet or walking meditation and prayer, can be helpful, restorative—if not critical—to our relationship with God. -Glen
