Redefining Spirituality

Redefining Spirituality

I have always felt that spirituality is spoken (actually meant to!) in the same breath as religion.

When we say a country a person sect etc. etc. is spiritual, what we actually mean is that the country or person or sect etc. is deeply religious!?

While it is quite natural to assume that a spiritual ‘aspect’ is closely linked with GOODNESS (read GODLINESS) and it is true as well it might be too far fetched to assume that an ‘aspect’ that is religious would be spiritual.

Then what is spiritual(ity) ?

There are many established definitions and I would leave that to the readers imagination/scholarship.

But I would like to redefine SPIRITUALITY as :

A LOVE AND RESPECT FOR LIFE, An unflinching FAITH in the universal code and an awe for the creation and passion/honesty in one’s work.

Lets see how you feel about this.

Whatever but one thing is most certain SPIRITUALITY IS NOT RELIGION !!!

While we are talking of need for redefining spirituality, I would like to present my take on a common man’s view on spirituality.

A take on every day spirituality from a 'non-spiritual' person

What do I know of big big words
what do I know of philosophy or theories
I only know of simple things like these :
I live want to be happy wont hurt anyone don’t hurt me please !!!

We all own a beautiful world
lets not play the game of hit and miss!
lets spend our stay here living and giving.
And for this we don’t have to know more than this!!!
