You can believe that snakes visit Shiva temples by themselves because they know what a Shiva statue is...or you can believe that people put them there, but logic dictates the latter is more plausible.
Just like the case of statues drinking milk about a decade back...you can believe that the statues actually DID drink milk, or you can believe that capillary action caused the milk to seep into the cement/rock structure of the statue, making it appear as if the milk was being 'drank'...my rational mind likes to believe the latter.
I guess I'm just not a 'miracle person' and I don't believe in them because there is an explanation for everything, if one discounts all personal beliefs....but if people want to be superstitious and believe what they see to be concurring with their own beliefs coincidentally, that's fine.
Aum Namah Shivaya

But I think 'spirit' is, or at least the
actions of 'spiirit'
are magical - as implicit in:
"Not that which the eye can see, but that whereby the eye can see: know that to be Brahman the eternal, and not what [most] people here adore;
Not that which the ear can hear, but that whereby the ear can hear: know that to be Brahman the eternal, and not what [most] people here adore;
Not that which speech can illuminate, but that by which speech can be illuminated: know that to be Brahman the eternal, and not what [most] people here adore;
Not that which the mind can think, but that whereby the mind can think: know that to be Brahman the eternal, and not what [most] people here adore."
Though, of course, as in AI,
magic can be 'faked'!
