1. Sometimes we may need to shift our medium completely. Not changing one's attitude from 'rock' - to 'pop' - or later on, to 'instrumental'. But sometimes we may realize that we need a radically new medium to be in, to express ourselves - that we may need brushes and pencils and colors to bring to life certain 'ideas' - and music may not do us any good anymore. Sounds meaningless but it's metaphorical.
2. The word 'spirituality' is a ghost. Spirituality doesn't exist. Only we exist. But we seem to display certain common (internal) 'forces'.
3. There is a common (internal) 'force' of goodness, worldwide. And there is a common (internal) 'force' of evil, worldwide.
4. I may speak mouthful of spirituality and impress a group of people. But if they have no money in their wallets, their spirituality will be as good as being hungry and sleeping at the corner of a street.
5. But we need the word 'spirituality' - as a tool to indicate these common (internal) 'forces'.
6. The true spirituality is the one that feeds hungry men, women and children; gives them a shelter amid a cruel, heartless world.

8. Said easier, than done. Collectively, worldwide, human beings are caught in a complex (or, more precisely speaking, 'compound') web of karma.
9. It's within our power to cure a physical disease (for example: viral fever). But we may not purify someone's karma no matter how hard we try to.
10. Perhaps only a radical change of values, understanding, and awareness - will possibly purify the world. And that's spirituality too.

1. The world is round and thus it doesn't have any edge - so to speak. The only edge is the blue sky and the limitless emptiness2. We are all closer than we 'think' we are3. Maybe we are all living like in different rooms of the same house - having separate exit doors for each room so that we never...

How would you describe your spirituality?
by Reena Daruwalla 14 years ago
And what does spirituality mean to you? For me it is about being in harmony with my inner self as well as all those around me. Nothing more complicated than that.
by Phyllis Doyle Burns 10 years ago
I am a spiritual person -- this does not define my beliefs or my religion. What it does mean is that I am true to myself and my beliefs. I was raised a Christian and still have the basic beliefs, that God and Jesus do exist. I pray to God and I talk with Jesus for guidance and healing -- I also...
