Spirituality is what that directly
connects our soul with the God. It is an effective practice which has been
considered as a true source to understand the power of God. But there are
hundreds of religions that make us to forget that one spirituality. If an
individual born in any particular religion, then he has to follow all the
spiritual activity related to that Religion. Therefore, Spirituality is Chosen
while religion is often times forced. Here, I am not saying to quit your
religion, I am just trying to establishing a meaning of True Spirituality.
We all are bounded in such a restricted mentality that we never gave a chance to understand a spirituality which has been a prominent factor for humanism. We have to come out of the shadow of religion and should eliminate the difference between caste, creed and Religion and follow a path of true spirituality. Spirituality itself means an evolution of a spirit, and spirit has no religion. Then why we wander in search of spirituality in religion. A true spirituality is what that is found deep inside you. It is your way of loving, accepting and relating to the world and people around you. It cannot be found in temple, Mosques and Church, because it is in our soul.
It is true that Religion is
inevitable. The origin of spirituality is established by a religion. You are engaged
in a spiritual activity with a start kick of your specific religion. Both,
Spirituality and Religion takes you to the path of God, but the difference is
in their approach. Religion tells you that God is in temple, or in heaven,
while, spirituality clearly specifies that God is in our own heart, it is in
our soul.
Religion is often concerned with Sin,
guilt and the concept of a God who punishes. While, Spiritual approach to God
is through the path of love. The theory of love in Spirituality is not only to
take love but the more you give, the more you come close to your soul. Religion
is often about loyalty to institutions, traditions and rules. But Spirituality
is about loyalty to justice and compassion. Religion talks about God but
Spirituality help us to make us godly. Religion feeds the ego while Spiritual
makes you transcend.
Through,
this blog, we could reach into a mental status where Spiritualism leads us to
the path of harmony and unity among the religion. There is only one god then
why we are making feign that we are from a specific religion. There is no need
to surrender or abandon the self, only the need to place it in its proper
relationship with Self.
