Is Stoicism a Spiritual Practice?

Stoicism is a spiritual practice. It's not religion, but i do think there is something deeply spiritual about it. I like the fact that if you dedicate your interest, your curiosity to anythingi find people who find gardening to be almostspiritual. Psyche, planting plants thou not even congaing. Physics can be spiritual, you know what i meanand religion can be very unspiritual. And, yes, or you could do it for some, you know, evil reason too, right? So i think it's about what you bring to it. And i think it’s ultimately about how you practise it.
