Hi everyone, happy New year and new season of greatness. This is my first post here and I've literally read alot about this community. I came across this contest while scrolling and reading alot of nice and interesting contents. So I told myself I have to write about this great topic.
Meaning of spirituality
My definition of spirituality is reaching out to the unseen world beyond human physical reach and having a deep connection to God.
However, the true way we can attain or connect to God or whichever spirit world is by prayers, calling out gods through any sacrificial way.
Spirituality is something way more deeper than we understand in our human knowledge capacity. Spirituality is a kind of a personal belief that involves you having a deep belief about something special.
There are different aspects at which we can express spirituality, but the common expressions are; by religion, social spirituality, mystical spirituality etc.
- RELIGION SPIRITUALITY
This kind of spirituality is practiced majorly everywhere, it's mostly practice by the christians, they express their spirituality by praying and connecting to God. A religious individual is someone that's devoted to a belief or God.
Religion and spirituality I believe they are different phrases, I'd say religion is a way of believing or having a relationship with a group that has some based belief.
However, combining this words gives us a meaning and it's having a strong believe about something supernatural in an unseen word or in a spiritual realm.
- SOCIAL SPIRITUALITY
It involves more than one person, a social spirituality is being practice mostly in a social group like church, mosque where we learn information in other to access or gain some spiritual level in one's life and also know about moral development.
Social spirituality is also express when searching or finding answers to your spiritual life. This can only be done when you socialize with people that has same interest or same belief then answers to a spiritual life can be found.
This majorly happens in mostly in movies, you'll see some set of supernatural beings coming together to trying to figure out their spiritual purposes. They do this together due to the fact that the low level of strength they have so sometimes they usually work together and join their spirits together to achieve same purpose. So therefore socialization is being practiced and observed during this period.
- MYSTICAL SPIRITUALITY
This kind of spirituality is way more deeper and theoretical in the actual sense that the people practicing or showing this kind of spirituality are very devoted to their believes. They tend to agree that everything that occurs around or within their surroundings are bound to happen.
The weird thing about this belief is, they usually give meaning to everything that happens.
And most they literally do say anything that happens during their time happens for a reason which I believe it's best known to people practicing this kind of spirituality.
Meditation is also involve in mystical spirituality, this happens when someone in this belief is trying to connect to God or spiritual entity through silence( meditation).
Mystical spirituality is being expresed when a connection to God is done through thought, and meditations.
I concur with the fact that Spirituality is way more interesting and complex than I thought it'd be trust me. When I saw the contest I didn't for any chance want to miss out on it. So I said to myself that nothing is going to hinder me from writing and sharing my thoughts about. Looking forward to more of this and I believe more of this and the best of this community is yet to show forth.
Great work from
