Definition of Spirituality


- By Bahram Maskanian

To be spiritual is to relate to what encompasses the unknown nature of spirit, although spirituality is not and never has been tangible, or formed by any material.  It is the concern with the theoretical source of life and how it affects the many unknown issues, such as birth, life and death, and to determine if there is an after-life of some sort?  Spirituality is composed of a need to relate to many higher sources of all cosmos life.  Since spirituality is also a theoretical science, which shall remain uncertain, it would make more sense to argue and research to find a common solution to humanities common problems, instead of destroying and killing each other to empower a few criminal political hustlers engaged in mass public deceptions for their own gains.  Humankind -- Womankind and Mankind – shall always be in search of life's resolution and shall never know the answer. - We are far from flawless, even in this day and age of the twenty-first century.  Due to the natural laws of evolution and improvement, every few years we learn that some or all of what we thought we knew, in a variety of different sciences such as: medicine, astronomy, physics, biology and more, needs to be modified or changed all together.

-- I believe that religious duties consist of doing justice, loving mercy, and endeavoring to make our fellow creatures happy, - my own mind is my own church -- Thomas Paine - The Age of Reason (1776)
