Personal Guidance
Banyans, jackfruit, asafetida — even pungent and ordinary trees decorate Kailāsa. Holiness doesn't reject the unglamorous; it integrates the practical right alongside the beautiful.
Reflection Questions

- Where am I editing out the practical in pursuit of an aesthetic of holiness?
