Lets start with the definition of Spirituality: the quality of being concerned with the human spirit or soul as opposed to material or physical things. When you think of spirituality is this what comes to mind for you?
For me it is so much more and can be very hard to put into words sometimes. Have you ever went for a walk in the woods and just lose all track of time? Just becoming surrounded by the sounds, smells and sights around you. Like you are almost in a trance? For me this is a spiritual event. You are connecting with the plants, earth, air and all that surrounds you.
Spirituality is not about some all powerful being you have to try and please by being "good" and following his rules. It is a much bigger and encompassing feeling and experience.
No one's spiritual journey will be exactly the same as anyone else's. We should never judge anyone for their path. If we are judging others it says a lot more about our own journey than theirs.
If you are looking to either start or know which way to go on your own path I always tell people to begin with meditation. You can do guided meditations for specific things as well as just set a timer and start your own. Take notes on what happened. How you felt before, during and after. What colors, smells or sights did you see. Doing this 5 minutes each day for a week can help you see what should come next.
Just remember to always reach to the light and it will grow. Have a blessed day. Please let me know your thoughts as well.
