>>Is there anything like a secular ritual or

ritual, i venture, breaks down--and perhaps even
deconstructs--the binary of sacred/profane . . . when
one does it [no matter what "it" happens to be]
simply because that's the why it's done and that's
the *right* way to do it, then the larger frame of
reference [secular vs spiritual, more or less] pretty
much vanishes and all there is is the practice itself
