Do human beings truly develop virtues, morals, and spiritual qualities through playing the sport of basketball? Or is basketball just a trivial pursuit and waste of time?
In Episode 2 of "Elevated Conversations" I explore the Baha'i Writings; the reflections of the inventor of basketball, James Naismith; as well as my own personal experience to share how we can practically develop virtuous qualities through the sport of basketball.
5 Virtues I've developed through playing basketball:

Excellence
Truthfulness/Reconciliation
Encouragement
Humility
Contentment

5 Virtues we can understand through the metaphor of basketball:

Spiritual Initiative
Spiritual Agility
Spiritual Accuracy
Spiritual Skill
Spiritual Muscle Memory
