No Spiritual Practices are Required - Penance

Penance

Why do you punish yourselves for nothing by doing penances and restrictions?
The Self cannot be realized through penance.
Work is penance, indeed. The only penance is to brave the outrages of Prarabdha (destined unfolding process of one's life).
Penance (work) is necessary for Existence in this world, and not for Him.
Egoless work is the only penance.
Silent love is Tapasya or penance. Let not anybody know of this love. If the next person knows of this love, this Tapasya becomes ungenuine, loses its integrity, and becomes affected.
Patience is the highest penance.
You must understand that whatever one does in daily life with utmost sincerity, remembering Him or His Name while practicing patience, becomes real penance (Tapasya). This is the highest offering to Him. So go ahead in your work with Him. You will find He has already arranged right things for you in the right time, which the egoistic person cannot achieve.
