Religion and spirituality are entirely two different things. Religion is of the body – I am born into a certain religion and usually follow the customs and practices associated with it. I also have a choice of which religion to adopt. I could be born into one religion and choose to follow a different religion.

Spirituality is understanding the inner spirit- the self- the conscient energy which runs/operates this body. The more spiritual I am, the better I understand myself  as to who am I, where have I come from, where do I want to go, what is the purpose of my life, what are my core values and what are my weaknesses. When I have a complete understanding of my self I am able to understand and connect better with others too at a deeper level. Since we are all living spirits and spirituality is knowing the spirit, we are all born spiritual. Spirituality unites religions together and helps finish body consciousness /ego. Spirituality infact connects all human beings at the deepest level reinforcing the feeling of universal brotherhood.
