A majority of people are uninformed about the exact kind of spiritual practice they should perform from amongst the thousands prescribed in the Scriptures. Consequently, those not performing spiritual practice, as well as those who perform spiritual practice inappropriately, benefit little by merely listening to information on Spirituality. On the contrary, their faith in Spirituality may begin to waver as they do not get spiritual experiences due to practicing inappropriate spiritual practice. Many people who religiously attend kirtans (Narration of the glory of God through stories, punctuated with devotional songs) and pravachans (Spiritual discourses in places of worship such as temples), think that they are performing spiritual practice. Similarly, those who read or study Scriptures or Texts on Spirituality consider that they have attained a fair amount of knowledge on Spirituality. In both the cases, however, this is not true. Those attending such kirtans and lectures or reading Texts on Spirituality mostly do so as a pastime or as a hobby.
