Many people of “faith” spend hours upon hours observing rituals without those actions resulting in the acts they were meant to bring. They might wash their hands in an act of purification but act in ways to others that’s full of dirt and disgust. These individuals might light candles to celebrate peace but act in a belligerent way to those around them. I believe it is better to neglect the rituals then act in a way that brings disgrace to them afterwards. Therefore when observing such faith rituals think what G-D wants them to mean to you and your path afterwards and follow through step by step otherwise there is no point in them in the first place.
