UNDERSTANDING YOUR SPIRITUALITY
Spirituality is often confused with religion and yet it is
everything but that. Simply speaking Religion is an organized faith aiming to
reach spirituality to every person irrespective of his/her education level,
wealth, caste, creed, nationality.
The need for religion arose when the people on earth
encountered the challenge of living in harmony under the growing pressures of
everyday survival. The prophets delivered the religious scriptures to people in
various parts of the world, in different languages and under different names.
That is how we have so many different religions although the original messages
of all are the same.
Some rituals were developed to make the rules of living
universally accepted for the believers of the particular religions. And if we
can leave apart the excesses and fanaticism, religion per say is a means to
help us get in touch with our spiritual.
However, as science grew on the world, and as some aspects
of religion were made into superstitions for personal gain of a few, man
gradually became distanced from his own spirituality.
