  yeah rereading your post I gave you the opposite of what you wanted. Your title and posting sorta contradict each other. If you just want to get spiritual I would say breathing and meditation but it won't necessarily make you smarter in the common usage of the word.

    I know, smarter generally means better at brain stuff. Better thinking. Having a lot of good knowledge stored in your head too.

    But there is infinitely more the the world than thinking. And having ideas about the world is a pretty shallow form of understanding. Ideas are like shadows.

    So a better kind of smarter would give you better understanding of this larger world. That’s the kind of smarter I’m looking at.

      Yeah I was just explaining my confusion. I think I get what your looking for and I doubt I can help you.
