Spirituality can refer to an ultimate reality or transcendent dimension of the world; an inner path enabling a person to discover the essence of his or her being, or the “deepest values and meanings by which people live.” . Spiritual practices, including meditation, prayer and contemplation, are intended to develop an individual's inner life; such practices often lead to an experience of connectedness with a larger reality: a more comprehensive self; other individuals or the human community; nature or the cosmos; and/or the divine realm..

Spirituality is often experienced as a source of inspiration or orientation in life. It can encompass belief in immaterial realities and/or experiences of the immanent or transcendent nature of the world.

A. Spirituality is traveling the spiritual path... the path to our inner domain... our real self... the soul atman within! As per the Sacred Bhagavad Gita of Hinduism... the ultimate goal of life for every soul atman... the spirit within is reaching the end of cosmic life... the 8.4 millionth manifestation! The moment human beings reached the stage of enlightenment (kaivalya jnana) and finally salvation (moksha)... one is considered having reached the pinnacle of spirituality... the end goal of cosmic life in all aspects! Beyond the stage of salvation there is nothing farther to achieve. Following the path of religion... one never reaches God Almighty! Both Sri Ramakrishna Paramhansa and Maharishi Ramana initially took the religious route... [cont.]

Do the religious understand that spirituality is not secular?
Q. I've never belonged to a religion, and believe they do more harm than good. I'm also very passionate about my own beliefs and spirituality, but that seems to go unrecognized the second I say I'm not a Christian. Suddenly I'm a godless heathen or at best an ignorant who needs saving.

Spirituality concerns itself with matters of the spirit, a concept closely tied to religious belief and faith, a transcendent reality, or one or more deities. Spiritual matters are thus those matters regarding humankind's ultimate nature and meaning, not only as material biological organisms, but as beings with a unique relationship to that which is perceived to be Reality beyond the bodily senses, time and the material world.
