About Eucharistic Adoration & the Divine Presence
Eucharistic adoration is the act of worshipping God as He is present in the consecrated Eucharist. Spending time before the Blessed Sacrament, in prayer and devotion, is the same as spending time before the living God.
Adoration occurs whenever someone kneels in front of a tabernacle that contains the Blessed Sacrament, genuflects toward a tabernacle, bows before receiving the Blessed Sacrament at Mass, or, in a more focused way, when the Blessed Sacrament is exposed for adoration. The purpose of adoration is to highlight the presence of Our Lord in the Eucharist. When a consecrated host is placed in the monstrance, it is said to be solemn adoration.

If ever you fear, even for the slightest moment, that God does not remain with you,  that somehow you are all alone in this world, you have only to look towards the Tabernacle, and the small flame that signals what lies within it, to be assured of the presence of God.
Fr. Sebastian White, o.p. Editor-in-Chief, Magnificat

Consider a technological examination of conscience during Adoration
Take a break from the hustle-bustle of ordinary life, sit in adoration and think deeply in God’s presence.
This is an Ignatian-themed adaptation of a spiritual examination of conscience for technology. You might start by asking yourself “What sort of person will the use of this technology make of me?” Followed by “What habits will the use of this technology instill?” St. Thomas Aquinas might ask us to consider “every choice of our lives, whether it’s what technology we purchase, when we use it or how, has a moral and ethical dimension to be considered. Every action is a moral one.”
I call to mind a particular kind of technology that I like to use, asking God to bless my reflection, that I might see my experience of that technology more clearly.
What kinds of feelings does use of this technology generate in me? How do I feel while I use it, and after? Does the technology leave me consoled or confused?
 What sort of habits or desires does this technology instill in me? Do I find it inviting me into greater generosity, openness, hopefulness, charity, curiosity or friendship?

But what do I DO at Eucharistic Adoration??

Special vocabulary:
Monstrance: Sacred Vessel used for the exposition and adoration of the Blessed Sacrament
Luna: Glass enclosure that holds the Blessed Sacrament in the monstrance
Cope: Ornate cloak-like vestment worn over a white alb and a stole by clergy at Benediction and processions
Humeral Veil: Scarf-like liturgical garment about eight or nine feet long and two or three feet wide, worn over the shoulders. The minister covers his hands with the ends of the veil so that it, not his hands, touches the monstrance at Benediction or during the procession of the Blessed Sacrament.
Incense: Granulated or powdered aromatic resin that, when sprinkled on glowing coals in a censer (thurible), becomes a fragrant cloud of smoke to symbolize prayer rising to God. Incense is used whenever there is Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament and during processions with the Blessed Sacrament.
