„Spiritual but not religious“, was my answer, when my student asked me today.
The word „Religion“ is being tightly associated with a Church (e.g. Christianity), which historically failed in the eyes of many. I do not reject any religion as such, but i resonate much more with the concept of „Spirituality“. It is an individual inner thing, which extends beyond religion (as we understand it nowadays).
Spirituality is a natural human´s need to connect to the Higher, find the strength, meaning and purpose in life, and to live life by actively creating own future.
And the best about it, you are free to choose your spiritual path, create your own image and form of the Higher, and follow your own rituals and practices.
Basically, whatever you regularly do to be a better and happier person - is your spirituality.
Do you agree?
